Hello Freedivers, as you probably heard there was a terrible plane crash in Sinai. Many freedivers had to cancel their trips because many airlines cancelled flights to Sharm el Sheikh, but we still have a lot of requests for people who want to join us for courses and training. Here you find some updated info…
From the outside Freediving looks like a very individualistic and lonely sport. Imagine someone breathing up at the surface preparing for his next dive, looking completely disconnected from the world around him; him descending alone towards the bottom of the ocean; or floating in a pool doing a static while he’s lost on his own…
If you search “freefall” on Instagram or Google images, not one single photo of freediving comes up, but instead you scroll down through hundreds of photos of skydiving jumps. Maybe the reason why freefalling is not so immediately associated with freediving is just because in the eye of the public this is not one of…
One part that makes you a Freediver is the ability to hold your breath. In static apnea your breath hold skills are tested for its limits. You lay with your face down in the water and try to hold your breath for as long as possible. Your buddy is sitting next to you to make…
We are no scientists, but we are freedivers, and we want to understand as much as we can about the freediving science; and of course we are happy to share it with you! The human body is an amazing and high tech piece of equipment and only in the most recent years we found out…

We will go through each one of them and explain their benefits and difficulties. In freediving there are six competition disciplines and two non-competition disciplines which sums up to a total of eight. This at…
Before my first course, I thought freediving is just about holding your breath, dive down and look around. I knew that there freedivers going deeper than I could imagine and that there was this crazy “no limits” discipline but I never really thought about people going down and up on a rope. Most of the…
We found this interesting article on Organic Health and we want to share it with you:) Have you ever had a stuffy nose? This could be the result of a sinus infection or a cold. You see when the lining of your sinus cavity becomes inflamed from irritations like bacteria or viruses. This causes your…
As if the outstanding and unbeatable conditions for freediving of the Red Sea and in particular of the Blue Hole were not enough to justify a trip to Dahab for competing at the Triple Depth, the amount of prizes you can win this year (without the need to be a world record holder) should be…
