A DIP IN THE PHYSICAL AND MENTAL WELLBEING
…the well-being of staying underwater, with themselves, immersed in a blue and quiet world, the well-being of “flying” underwater and of learning to control your body.
In contrast to what many people think, free diving (i.e. apnea) is a discipline that doesn’t require a particular physical prowess or athletic training, but especially a mental workout that leads to know ourselves, our skills and our limits.
It’s a sport that generates physical and mental wellbeing and relaxation! Part of the course, in fact, is devoted to mental training and to learn the techniques of pranayama, as well as training in the pool and the dives into the sea at the end of the course.
So, why attend a free diving course?
- to deepen the free diving techniques and to increase safety at sea!
- to improve the physical and mental knowledge of themselves!
- to achieve a high physical and mental wellbeing!
- for fun!!!

• 7 theory lessons
