Four weeks in the lifestyle

This is an immersion into the freediving lifestyle on a tropical island, and the best preparation there is for the Instructor course. You freedive for depth, for technique, for performance, for fun, and for career development — with enough time for progression to actually compound rather than being crammed into a long weekend.

Holistic training, every day

Daily meditation and breathwork, daily dry training, yoga classes, ice bath sessions, mental training, and deliberate recovery and relaxation. This is what improves breath-hold time, relaxation, equalisation and depth performance — the four things that actually decide how a month of training ends.

Who it's for

Future freediving instructors, advanced freedivers, ocean lovers seeking a real immersion, career-focused freedivers, and long-term travellers on Koh Tao. What it asks for is Level 1 and Level 2 certification, motivation to train consistently, and genuine interest in advanced technique.
