Being a freediving instructor is a very rewarding and hard job.
It requires you to be humble and able to meet your students where they are.
The main thing as an instructor is the ability to create a safe and comfortable setting for your students. A setting that will inspire and motivate your students to explore their own abilities under the surface.
A life-changing experience – that is very often what the student will have under the guidance of a good instructor.
My best moments as an instructor is when I see in the student’s eyes – that they have felt the magic and amazing feeling of being underwater in one breath.
Your training doesn’t necessarily stop with the Instructor Course- I will invite to events and webinars where we can discuss and develop together as instructors and coaches.
