OUR COURSES
Our Freediving courses are taught by Mike Avery, a Performance Freediving Instructor, and stunt performer.
Mike knows how to get you to reach your goals, whether that be getting comfortable in the water, learning how to manage stressful big wave hold downs, helping students accomplish over 5 minute breath holds and to reach depths of 130 feet, or how to move and look good underwater.
​
Through the curriculum developed by Performance Freediving International, the world leader in freedive training. As a student you will learn how to relax into the realm of apnea, how to control your breathing and how this can be used in your everyday life. Mike will teach you what it takes to be a safe and proficient freediver, step by step, one breath at a time.
​
No previous freediving experience necessary.
