To safely breath hold dive requires a certain amount of skill, at Apneists UK we take qualified Freedivers (AIDA 2*, SSI level 1, Apnea Academy levels for example) onto the course. For non-qualified divers we offer an AIDA 1 Star, one day course to teach you important skills to ensure you are safe in the environmet we will be taking you. We run courses in North Wales, and Scotland. -
The course will consist of a theory lecture to bring the student up to speed with current knowledge in this area, it will include some practical dry sessions, and then formation in the water for a static breath hold session under favourable conditions.
We will look at training zones and how to plan ahead for training, describe and practice some useful exercises, give you an idea of many relaxation exercises to practice regularly and during your static apnea practices and look at diet and nutrition and what you can do to maximise your statics.
We designed this course sometime ago, and it has benefitted previous students from the course. -
