AIDA 3 – ADVANCED FREEDIVER

The AIDA3 Advanced Freediver Course builds on the skills learnt in the AIDA2 Freediver Course. It is designed to cover the necessary skills and knowledge for a recreational Freediver to be able to safely freedive with or without a guideline. The aim of the course is to develop the skills and knowledge necessary to independently plan and participate in Freediving activities with similarly experienced freedive buddies.

The course is designed to further develop skills from previous levels, develop new skills and a higher knowledge of safety procedures and techniques for Freediving such as Free Falling, Frenzel Equalizing, Training Tables, the risks of increasing and decreasing pressure and how to minimize these risks.

Students will train these skills in the most common disciplines of Freediving; Static Apnea, Dynamic Apnea, Free Immersion and Constant Weight. Competition rules for these disciplines should not be used.
