Freedive coaching

If you’d like to perfect a particular skill, a coaching session with a professional is your safest bet to achieving your goals. With the ability and experience to assess you, your coach, Fabrice, can craft a training plan specific to your needs. Whether you’re looking to improve your finning, equalising (mouthfill, frenzel, charging, air shift techniques; the list goes on), duck diving, how to properly execute free-immersion on a line or you simply want to nail a relaxation technique, your coach will be able to help you reach your objectives.

And seeing that each individual has different aquatic abilities, spending that extra time in the water can make all the difference and it can truly help you master a skill.That’s why we recommend a minimum of five days of coaching, with breaks in between to rest your body and mind. If possible, we highly recommend extending your stay for two weeks, maximizing your progress and overall experience.

If you have attended a course or would like a few more days coaching, please get in touch with us.

Schedule

We work differently to most schools. Our system is based on a two day diving and one day 'rest' cycle. Our coaching is different to anything you've ever experienced before. The days are filled with; relaxation, stretching & breathing. Open water diving mixed with exploration. On our rest days, we work on breath-holding and equalisation (dry)

Diving days

Start your morning with an all-round stretch to loosen your body. We'll then move on to specific lung stretching exercises or breathing exercises and Jedi master mind tricks from yoga-nidra to prepare you for diving. After that, we'll suit up and head onto the boat making sure we go to the best diving location based on the prevailing conditions.

Dry day aka Rest

During your first open water session, we’ll focus on making you comfortable in the water and getting into the swing of things, while keeping the plan we devised earlier on in the day in mind. This session will also provide your coach the opportunity to analyse your diving and to determine what needs to be done further. At the end of the session we’ll plan and set goals for our future coaching sessions.

Coaching reviews

It was great! All of it: EQ on land, stretching, trainings and, of course, fun dives! Truly individual approach to each of us. Very methodical and so generous on sharing the knowledge. Always a pleasure to be coached by someone who is passionate about what they do. Never in a hurry, always so attentive. Thank you, Fabrice. Read more here

This week of freediving in Gozo with Fabrice was a big highlight of the summer, and even year!
Fabrice is an outstanding coach and instructor, and a super nice person to be around! As a beginner freediver, I was able to progress at my pace whilst being encouraged to trust in my abilities to move forward. In addition to that, I met great, like-minded people who I’ll see again. I’ll definitely come back for more training!! Read more here

Is coaching appropriate for you?

Coaching provides a more individualised and tailored approach to progressing at improving  freedivng skills, through a step by step approach. Courses are only relevant if you aim to become an instructor. Depth and feeling good is not determined by a piece of paper, but by putting in the time, dedication and patience.

At Deep Med, we strongly believe that coaching is the ideal path for any freediver. Courses focus on numbers, checking off skills, certifications, and time constraints. Our coaching approach allows you to experience the authentic feeling of freediving, breaking down skills, diving deep into details, and guiding you to achieve comfort and ease in your freediving

On the other hand, if you’re already certified and you would rather dive on a line with other divers, our training session is perfect for you to buddy with other freedivers and share your passion as you hone in your skills.

A balance between line diving & adventure

Whilst coaching is a great way to hone in on your skills, there’s nothing like throwing expectations out of the window and having some fun either flying a swim-through or diving a wreck. Our coaching program is not all about being serious. It’s aimed at freedivers who already have knowledge and skills to put them to the test both on the line and during an adventure.

We’ll make sure to line dive everyday and keep it as fluid as possible whilst going with the flow of the group. This is why we strongly encourage a minimum of five days freediving; options can be kept open to make sure you get the most out of it!

Frequently Asked Questions

  • Do I need to be a certified freediver to participate in a coaching session?

    Our coaching sessions are appropriate for both certified and non certified divers. Certified divers can focus on improving a particular discipline, while non certified divers can master any skills they want following a training plan fit to their needs. Alternatively, a coaching session may also be used as an opportunity to prepare yourself for a course.

  • I would like to train with a coach but I’m new to freediving and I’m not sure where to begin. How can the coach help me?

    Unlike a course which has an established skillset you should achieve in order to acquire your certification, coaching is tailored specifically to your goals. If you don’t know what these should be, your instructor can help you devise a plan, guide you and offer advice.

  • I have difficulties when it comes to equalising. Will coaching help me?

    Equalising is a skill and like all skills this is something you can improve at through training and carrying out dry awareness exercises. A good coach will be able to spot what you may be doing wrong and can devise a plan to better yourself. However, participating in a days’ worth of coaching won’t provide you with sufficient time in the water so we recommend having a look at our packages.

  • What should I bring with me on the course?

    All equipment is included in all the courses so all you need to bring with you is your swimwear and a towel. Should you wish, you may bring a light snack, although we do provide nuts, fruits and water.
