Do I need to know how to swim?
No. Many of our students are non-swimmers. We focus on breath-hold, relaxation and comfort in the water.
What’s the difference between the pool and ocean sessions?
Pool: safety, breathwork and water confidence in a calm setting.
Ocean: apply those skills in open water, practice free immersion dives.
Where are sessions held?
Trinidad: St Anthony’s Pool
Tobago: YMCA Pool & Mount Irvine Bay
How much does it cost?
We have various options, currently we offer $450 / month which includes 2 pool classes where we get you ready for the ocean.
What happens after the session?
Ocean students in Tobago can snorkel Mt Irvine reef — a chance to relax and explore marine life.
Is it a workout?
Not in the usual sense. Freediving is slow, mindful, and focused on breath, not strength.
