    Day 1

Note

This three-day program aims to improve your freediving performance by increasing the duration of your dives and perfecting your technique. The goal is to achieve a static apnea of ​​at least 2 minutes and to dive to a depth of between 12 and 20 meters. However, individual performance is not the primary focus; the main objective is to discover the art of freediving, to appreciate this sport, and to ensure safety on every dive.


We always adapt the training to the level of each participant, whether you are a beginner or already have experience in freediving.


The program is given as an indication only and may be modified depending on weather conditions or any other event that may occur.

The training takes place from Tuesday to Thursday or from Friday to Sunday.
