After 10 years of teaching freediving classes, I’m taking a break. I’m not 100% sure if I will resume classes this year or not.
I am focusing my energy on promoting and building my online freediving courses, you can see them by clicking the link www.OnlineClasses.ImmersionFreediving.com
I also created a website which provides a free online course that covers the risks of the sport, the truth about blackouts, and how to save your buddy if they have a blackout. You can see it by clicking the link www.FreedivingSafety.com
Immersion Freediving is proud to offer the most comprehensive 66ft course on the market. You will learn a variety of specific freediving techniques that will take your freediving ability to the next level. There will be a high focus on how to do so safely, as well how to properly equalize for freediving via the Frenzel method.
A maximum of 5 students per class. The course length is 4 days with a course fee of $721.80 per student. This does not include the boat fee. The course typically has two boat trips at $60 per trip plus tax which the total comes to $127.20. The total fee with 2 boat sessions cost comes to $849.
Students free dive down to max depth of 66 feet. The average student does a 2.5 to 3.5 minute breath hold by the end of the course. The average student completes a 60-foot freedive also by the end of the course.
Monday I have a boat session booked in case I cancel a boat trip on the weekend due weather, if that happens I already have a trip booked so we can finish everything up and you don’t have to make a trip back to Fort Lauderdale to finish.
Because I only teach classes from May to October this rarely happens as this time of year has best weather conditions.
If we don’t lose a boat trip due to weather this will turn into an OPTIONAL speargun training session where you will learn how Jeromy Gamble Owner of Spearing Magazine combines the Immersion Freediving entry with his method of carrying the gun down to depth in the most efficient manner possible. This is an OPTIONAL trip and is $150 additional if you want to learn his method.
