How to Freedive

Introduction to Freediving: The Power of Breath

Curious about freediving? In this inspiring workshop, you’ll explore how to safely train your body and mind to hold your breath longer. You’ll learn what happens inside you during a breath hold, and how techniques like relaxation, focus and controlled breathing can help you move your limits—without force, and always with awareness.

Through practical exercises and clear explanations, you’ll discover how powerful your body truly is, and how freediving is as much about mindset as it is about lungs. It’s not about going deep into the ocean—it’s about going deep within yourself.

Discover the depth of your breath—and the strength within.
