WAVE 1

Learn how to dive safely on one breath

Your entry into the world of freediving!

This course is where freediving begins or your time to improve your current knowledge and skills. Absolutely anyone can join the Wave 1 course! You might have no freediving or even snorkelling experience or you've been diving for years.

Regardless, we work with divers at their level. This is not a cookie cutter course but one that tailored to suit you and what you want to get out of freediving.

We believe that freediving is for everyone because freediving is FUN! Freediving isn’t hard and freediving feels good!

With our help you will be able to dive deeper than you thought was possible and stay underwater longer that you could have imagined and it will all feel easy.

The feeling of being weightless underwater, the feeling of being connected to the aquatic world is truly magical!

At no point in time will you be rushed into getting “there” or pushing yourself. And if you don't complete the requirements to obtain the Molchanovs certification you can come back unlimited time for free until you do.

There is no pressure! There is no stress! Come and join us for a weekend of laughs and connecting to nature in your own backyard!
