Basic Freediving Course, 1 Day - Sunshine Coast

Begin your journey towards mastering freediving with this one day basic freedive course in Mooloolaba on the Sunshine Coast. You'll learn all about how your body reacts to holding your breath as you go through an interactive theory section, before jumping in for a confined water session to practice breathing and rescue techniques in the pool. The PADI Basic Freedive course contains two phases - knowledge development and a confined water session. The knowledge development phase is run through an interactive app, through which you'll learn about how the body reacts to breath holding, how water pressure affects you, freediving equipment, important safety rules and buddy procedures. Then phase two is run in a swimming pool where you'll learn breathing techniques while floating (static apnea) and swimming (dynamic apnea). You'll also practice basic rescue techniques and learn your role as a buddy. Nothing compares to the freedom and adventure of freediving, so get started!
