MOLCHANOVS WAVE 1 × AIDA 2 Course Overview

Discover the underwater world in our MOLCHANOVS WAVE 1 × AIDA 2 Introductory Freediving course. The course is open to all healthy individuals who can swim 200 meters. By successfully passing the pool, depth, safety, and theory knowledge requirements, you will become a Freediver!

During the course, you'll learn to freedive safely, understand the physiology of breath-holding, enhance freediving efficiency, and learn the essential techniques in freediving. Successful completion should enable you to comfortably dive between 12 and 20 meters, hold your breath for 1 min 30 seconds or more and mastering pool disciplines focusing on technique and efficiency.

The course also covers freediving physics, including pressure, Boyle’s law, and Archimedes principle, with practical applications. You'll learn how to check your weight, equalize your ears, and comprehend basic physiology to ensure safe diving.

We'll discuss similarities between our bodies and marine mammals, exploring the role of oxygen and carbon dioxide in freediving. The course aims to help you conserve energy and improve breath-holding efficiency. We introduce mental skills for deep relaxation, visualization, and better dive preparation and execution.

Safety is paramount in our course. Learn to dive with a buddy, perform rescue procedures, prevent potential injuries, and understand how to use specific freediving gear correctly. Freediving, when properly learned and practiced, is a very safe activity.

Our Molchanovs Dashboard platform provides a global community with access to educational materials, weekly Base Trainings, and the chance to log your achievements, connect with, and learn from elite freedivers.
