How Your Discover Freediving Session Works

Your Discover Freediving session follows a clear structure with guidance every step of the way. No previous experience is required – we take our time, explain everything calmly and adapt the session to the group.

1. Welcome & Introduction

We begin by welcoming everyone and creating a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere. You'll get an overview of the session and have plenty of time to ask questions before we get started.

2. Preparation on Land

Before entering the water, we'll prepare together. The focus is on slowing down, finding a sense of calm and becoming more aware of your body as you get ready for the water.

3. Your First Experiences in the Water

In the water, you'll put what you've learned into practice in a safe and supportive environment. Everything takes place at a controlled pace with professional guidance and no time or performance pressure. You're always free to go at your own pace.

4. Reflection & Feedback

At the end of the session, we'll take time for feedback and reflection. You'll have the opportunity to reflect on your experience, ask questions and get a better sense of what breath-hold diving feels like for you.

Discover Freediving isn't about performance or depth. It's about your first mindful experience of relaxation, breathing and being in the water.

Theory: Understanding Breathing & Breath-Holding

Before entering the water, we take time to understand the fundamentals of breath-holding. You'll learn how breathing, relaxation and oxygen consumption are connected and why staying calm is one of the most important aspects of freediving.

Discover Freediving isn't about holding your breath for as long as possible. It's much more important to understand how your body responds to breath-holding and how conscious breathing can help you reduce tension.

These theoretical foundations will help you feel safe and relaxed in the water while developing a better awareness of your own body.

Stretching & Breathing Exercises on Land

Before entering the water, we prepare your body and breathing through gentle stretching and guided breathing exercises. This creates the foundation for relaxed and safe breath-holding. The focus is on body awareness, releasing tension and developing a calm breathing rhythm – without any performance pressure.
