Combo Course AIDA
COMBO COURSE
FROM BEGINNER TO FREEDIVER IN ONE WEEK
- 6 Days
- 12-30 Meters
- Min. 15 years
- 1-4 Students
What will you learn?
Combining the Beginner and the Freediver course, with a total length of 6 days, the Combo Course provides a perfect opportunity for students who want to start and immediately progress to freedive deeper.
It consists of three main phases:
- Knowledge development about fundamental and advanced freediving skills and techniques needed for deeper diving.
- Confined water sessions to learn and refine breath hold techniques as well as static and dynamic apnea.
- Open water sessions to practice free immersion, Frenzel equalization and constant weight freedives along with buoyancy control and Freefall, as well as buddy procedures and rescue techniques.
By the end of the course you will be able to perform a 2 minutes 45 seconds breath-hold, swim 55 meters underwater with fins and dive comfortably between 20 and 30 meters depth.
