Over the past ten years we have been organically learning, growing and developing our freediving coaching programmes in order to support the freediving community, and those interested in exploring an alternative way to dive on breathhold - outside of the standard ‘one-size-fits-all’ education offered by most of the big education agencies.

Freediving, for us and for many of you, is a spiritual experience, a way to look inside, discover yourself and understand and release the negative thought patterns that hold you back in the water and in life. It goes beyond the limited approach of measuring your success by numbers, and returns to a more authentic and healthy way of freediving, through feeling, learning how to relax in the water, and returning to a state of deep trust in the water, your body and life.

Please feel free to explore our site and our programmes, and contact us if you are interested in discussing how we can help you further:

Freediving for absolute beginnerS

SEA-INSIDE JOY OF WATER

Our entry-level programme is the Sea-Inside Retreat. This ten-day in-depth experience is the most thorough and supporive approach to learning how to freedive. We guide you through all the essential theory including the anatomy, physiology and science of breathhold diving, as well as taking time to help you really relax, in and out of the water; body, mind and spirit. In this way, you see clearly how your mind can either sabotage or serve your experience, and you can learn how to work actively to remain calm and stress-free even in new and challenging situations. Click here for more information.

healing water fears

The Sea-Inside Retreat is offered in two formats; one for beginners comfortable with water, and one for those looking to resolve fear of water or diving, or build their water confidence. You will join us in an exclusive group, either alone, or with maximum one other person who also wants to move beyond fear, to ensure a one-to-one student:coach ratio at all times. While the format of the Sea-Inside Retreat follows the beginners programme, the content and pace will be determined entirely by you and what you need each moment of each day. We guide you gently through the process to experience your fears, your vulnerability in facing them, and your courage to resolve them. Click here for more information.

freediving for intermediates and advanced

Holistic Freediving

Our one-week Holistic Freediving programmes are ideal for anyone who is frustrated with the pressure and stress of ‘one-size-fits-all’ certifications, or is simply looking for guidance in how to relax more in the water. You will understand the true process of freediving in a healthy, sustainable way, and learn how to use freediving as a tool for personal development, awareness and a way to self-coach, in and out of the water. These five-day programmes are in intense, deep process that require the courage to be open, vulnerable and completely honest. Through our work together in and out of the water, we will invite you to look at thought patterns and belief structures that are holding you back, so that you can ultimately release them and dive - and live - with more relaxation and freedom.

Freediving Retreats and Holidays

Magical encounters dolphin RETREATS

Our Magical Encounters Dolphin Retreats are the perfect combination of relaxation, learning, nature, ocean, and of course incredible wildlife encounters. These week-long retreats are held on board a luxury 32m dive boat, where we offer everyone who wants it, their own private cabin, as well as twice daily yoga, meditation and pranayama. We also share our Holistic Freediving lecture series on four mornings, and basic freedive coaching for anyone interested in learning how to get more relaxed in the water on breathhold. Of course the dolphins are the stars of the week and we encourage you to do as much or as little of our programme as you want - if you wish to spend the entire week swimming with these wonderful creatures, we won’t take it personally ;-) For more information please click here.

online training and coaching

distance coaching

All of our programmes and retreats can be supported by one-to-one work online with us. The Distance Coaching can also stand alone as a programme of coaching and spiritual guidance to help you with your freediving or challenges you may be facing in your life. We typically work with students who are interested in understanding a particular challenge which is keeping them blocked, or need support in an intense period of training, such as training for a big competition, or recovery from over-training, injury or black-out. Please click here for more information.

Yoga for freediving online training

This six-part online programme is an excellent way to work on the mental, emotional and spiritual aspects of freediving as a complement to work you are doing in the water, either with us, or with another coach or trainer. Very often the mental and spiritual aspects of freediving are at best underestimated, and often are beyond the experience and capacity of an instructor who has limited experience of meditation or a spiritual practice themselves. The programme can be used as a complete journey, ideally explored and integrated over one year, or can be approached course-by-course, according to what you feel you most need. Access to the videos is for life, so you can return to them as and when you need, either as a reminder of a spiritual wisdom to support you through a particular situation, or to support you back into regular meditation practice. If you want to start meditating but are unsure where and how to begin, this is an excellent resource to help you. Find out more and get started here.

Freediving for corporate Coaching

Human potential Training

Everyone wants to bring their best performance to their work and develop themselves personally and professionally. We have learned that if you do not know how to nourish and develop yourself personally, you will be creating immense internal stress by pushing yourself to achieve ever-more professionally. Ultimately this will lead to costly mistakes, or personal burn-out or break-down. The Human Potential Programme takes small groups of professionals through an introspective journey to understand their inner dynamics and physical, mental, emotional and spiritual needs in order to ensure their thoughts, actions, communication and behaviour support their on-going and sustainable growth, and thereby success. Please find out more here and email us to organise a conference call to discuss your needs.
