AIDA 1 Discover Freediving Course

The AIDA 1 Freediving Course introduces students to the concepts of freediving. In this course you will learn the basic theory of freediving, how to prepare for a breath hold, and how to snorkel/freedive safely. This course is intended for complete beginners who want to learn to snorkel or freedive no deeper than 10 meters, are interested in pool training, or as an introduction class that will lay groundwork for more training at a later date.

You will need appropriate gear (wetsuit, mask, snorkel, fins, weights) which can be rented from several locations - we will provide info upon registration.

NEW - take your skills to the open water! There is now an option to add an ocean session to your AIDA1 course. We will be hosting an open water session at Eagle Harbour in West Vancouver on April 30rd from 10AM to 1PM. You must have taken an AIDA1 with us previously. Choose the "AIDA1 Open Water Session" in the drop-down menu to add to your cart. Please visit our FAQ page to make sure you have all of the gear necessary for ocean diving.

Please note that if you are interested in freediving deeper than 10m or participate in further freediving activities with Oceanoid in open water, a minimum of an AIDA2 certification is required.
