Do I Need To Do a Freediving Course

Freediving is a very easy sport to get into. Many freedivers and spearfishers get into the sport by learning from friends and family, but this can carry serious risks if they’re not learning from a qualified instructor. Freediving appears to be relatively simple, but there is a lot of information on safety, physiology and technique to learn and it is easy to get wrong.

We recommend that everyone who wants to freedive should do a recognized course with a qualified instructor . Despite the relative lack of equipment, there is much to learn when freediving, especially concerning safety, techniques and being aware of the risks – getting it wrong can be fatal. A badly trained freediver risks suffering anything from ear, sinus and lung barotraumas, to blacking out and subsequently drowning, not to mention decompression sickness.
We’re not trying to scare you or dissuade you from giving our wonderful sport a go, though, but it’s crucial that you safely learn to freedive with a qualified instructor.

Many highly-experienced freedivers and spearfishers who have not completed a course find that they are often doing things that are dangerous and inefficient. On completion of a course they find that their ability skyrockets, as well as their confidence, knowing that they are finally doing things right – and safely.
