Members onlyCourse Description
The second level or Advanced Freediver trains the freediver in deep freediving reaching 20 meters in depth.
It is a full educational program that aims to develop a trained freediver, who can already dive to 10-14 meters, in the knowledge and skills needed for deep freediving, up to 20 meters deep.
The knowledge development at the Advanced Freediver Level covers the entire spectrum of knowledge in technique, physiology, equipment, etc. at the level of deep freediving, with a much more advanced and analytical knowledge, compared to the first level.
The goal of the Advanced Freediver training is to help the diver to develop his skills and to be able to dive comfortably and safely to depths reaching 20 meters. So, this level is considered as the first deep freediver training level.
The performance that the graduate Advanced Freediver will achieve in the pool will be at least 2.5 minutes in static apnea and 50 meters in dynamic apnea.
What you will learn in this course?
- Buoyancy adjustment before each deep dive
- Meditation: the mental preparation for a deep freedive
- Preparation breathing and the last breaths before a deep dive
- The moves to descent in a deep dive
- The general profile of the ascent in deep freediving
- Recovery after the deep dive
