eLearning
At your own pace, in the eLearning App, you will read the theory and watch some nice Freediving videos then at the end of each theory chapter you will have to answer the Knowledge Review. Once all the chapters seen, you can attend the final exam online.
Once the exam is passed, there are two possibilities :
1. Once you arrive in Freediving Planet Moalboal, your instructor will conduct with you a 30 minutes theory session to verify that all the topics of the theory are well understood. You will have to answer a Quick Review exam (10 questions); After this theory session, you will practice the breathing techniques with your Instructor.
We will verify that you can perfectly manage the relaxation phase, then the last breath and finally the important recovery breathing at the end of any breath hold. Your Instructor will also review with you the safety and rescue techniques during static and dynamic.
2. If you are still at your home, we can also easily conduct this 30 minutes theory session during a webinar. Once the theory done, you will follow another webinar about the breathing techniques and safety.
First day at Freediving Planet
When you will arrive in Freediving Planet Moalboal, we will check first that all your documents are OK and that you have successfully passed your Knowledge review and online exam.
Right after the Admin, your Instructor will organize the theory refresh followed by a Quick Review exam. After that, you will practice the breathing and relaxation techniques and your instructor will show you some videos about the safety and rescue during a pool session.
In the afternoon : some fun in the swimming pool where you will practice all the exercises and skills described in the online theory. Note that your Instructor will verify first your ability to swim 200m. The pool session will be around 2 hours in total.
At the end of the day you will be certified as a Basic Freediver and if you wish to continue to the next level (PADI Freediver) you will only need to do 2 open water sessions in the sea.
