If you are intrigued by the underwater world and find underwater exploration fascinating, consider visiting the Singapore Freediving Academy.

To be eligible for the workshops, participants must at least have a basic or Level 1 freediver certificate, which can be obtained by completing the Academy’s “Basic Pool” or “Level 1” freediving course.

Some of the available workshops include Dynamic No-fins, Monofins, and Mouthfill that will teach you different theories and fundamentals of diving techniques along with simple practical exercises to prepare participants for more advanced freediving courses.
