I love teaching the Level 2 Freediver Course! Students humbly learn new skills each day, progress conservatively to stay safe and become more aware of their natural abilities underwater. We train together to fine tune Level 1 skills and add new skills to comfortably freedive deeper into sink phase beyond 20m/66’. We had unreal conditions in between swells, the sounds of whales on every dive and solid performances with new PBs for everyone. A big thanks to our captain and congratulations to the students! .sean

from Ponce, PR and from Alabama showed up with open minds, big smiles and two completely different experience levels. Four days later, both watermen put the skills to work, trusted the technique and delivered earned results. Proud of these students for their performances, respecting the safety training, and discovering what they’re capable of underwater on a breath. Thanks to captain and great to have and join us for the training. Nice work everyone!

We kicked off the winter season of classes with a private Level 1 Freediver Course here in Puerto Rico. Chris flew in from NYC with an limited experience in the water and an open mind to learn. At 58 years old, he held his breath for the first time for 3:45 and discovered a whole new world offshore on the line with Level 2 certified student Both students worked well together and it was an awesome class. Nice work Chris and Sam and thanks to our captain

Dedication, commitment and persistence. joined us for the Waterman Survival Extended Course in Rincón several years ago. She did very well in the class and continued to show up to train for most classes after her first one. From the beginning, she was eager to train and open to learn with putting in the time in the water. Carolina went through Instructor Week with classmate and she stayed the course long after that incredible week of training. Together with and I, we helped shape Carolina’s teaching skills into what expects at the highest standard. She is an incredible freediver and speara with a passion for helping people learn to freedive. A very big congratulations and well earned Level 1 Instructor certification for Carolina! Proud of you and welcome to the amazing family of FII Instructors!

Summertime in Puerto Rico and beautiful conditions for the Waterman Survival Extended Course. Four days of breath hold training for these students putting together the skills for safety and performance…and a wake up call to their own natural abilities underwater on a breath hold. Thanks to our captain for keeping an eye on us offshore and putting us in the bluewater. Fun class and great job everyone!
