Apnea Total

Apnea Total upholds the highest standards of freediving safety. Start your journey! Koh Tao is a paradise island for scuba-divers and Freedivers.

Apnea Total is an international freediving organization that promotes the Apnea Total Freediving Education System and provides certification that is recognized worldwide. Apnea Total Koh Tao is the headquarters for our worldwide network of freediving schools - the original Freediving School in South-East Asia. We have been operating for over 10 years and are the place to learn how to hold your bre

ath and go deeper than you ever thought possible. Located on Koh Tao, two hours north of Koh Samui in the Gulf of Thailand, Apnea Total has been open since 2003. Monica, Eusebio, and their Apnea Total instructor team will teach you the proper breathing techniques to feel comfortable and safe in the water. You will discover another dimension where you can move around freely and become one with the sea. By training your body and your mind, you will experience new sensations without the aid of artificial breathing equipment. Clearwater, colorful corals and numerous fish have made it the most popular place in Thailand for snorkeling, breath-hold diving, and scuba-diving. Thousands of students have already challenged themselves to explore the sea world with Apnea Total, with harmony and with respect for our beautiful environment. We teach a two-day Freediver Course or a single-day Introductory Course, a Static Apnea Clinic, and an Advanced course, and for our more committed divers, we have a Masters course that runs for 4 weeks, where you will learn all disciplines involved with Freediving. We are in fact the only school able to offer this course due to the training of our instructors.

This system is built on the belief that freediving is an individual sport with personal goals, and that anyone can be a freediver.

We don't believe in one-size-fits-all training. Every student progresses differently, so our courses stay flexible and personal — the goal isn't to check boxes, but to help you feel genuinely comfortable and confident in the water, at your own pace.

Every single course includes rescue and safety training, no matter the level. We hold our instructors to high standards precisely so you don't have to worry — you can focus on relaxing and enjoying the dive.

Many of the instructors trained at our Koh Tao headquarters have gone on to open their own Apnea Total centers around the world — from South America to the Caribbean, Asia, and Europe — all carrying the same education system and standards.

Whether you're curious about freediving for the first time or ready to go further, there's a place for you here.

Think freediving is just for adults? Think again. 🌊

Kids can dive too — at their own pace, with an approach built entirely around them: fun, safe, and never rushed.

Curiosity, bubble rings, games, a little practice — that's how it starts. And somewhere in there, real comfort in the water grows too.

🌊 Never dive alone isn't only about safety.

Sometimes, it's this — two people, the same line, moving in opposite directions — one rising, one descending — yet never once looking away from each other.

Because down here, everything rests on trust. Absolute trust — the kind that doesn't need to be spoken, only felt. You know they're watching. They know you are too. That's what makes it possible to let go so completely.

There's a whole conversation happening in that silence. A glance. A rhythm shared without a single sound. That's the quiet intimacy of diving with a buddy — not just watching over each other, but truly sharing the moment with them.

Before you can dive deep, you have to know your own body.

Look at this stillness. No movement, no effort — just floating, suspended between the surface and the sandy floor below. This is what body awareness looks like from the outside: total relaxation, muscles released, breath held with ease.

Freediving teaches you to listen — to every muscle, every tension, every heartbeat. Where are you holding stress? Is your jaw clenched? Are your shoulders tight when they should be relaxed? 🧘‍♀️

This isn't about pushing harder. It's about becoming so familiar with your body that you can adjust, release, and move with less effort — not more.

The better you know your body, the further you can go.

🌊 Learn to listen to yourself.

🌊 Freediving doesn't just take you into the ocean. It reminds you that you belong to it.

The moment you slip underwater, you become aware of the raw power of the elements. The ocean's strength, its wealth, its wild force — uncontrollable by man.

It's a discovery of an entirely new world beneath the surface — a whole other system, teeming with life and diversity, existing in parallel to everything we know on land. Coral cities, hidden creatures, ecosystems built on rules completely different from ours. The deeper you go, the more you realize: this isn't just an extension of our world. It's its own universe. And the longer you spend learning from it, you become conscious of how fragile and precious this world really is — and how much it needs our protection.

Even our own bodies respond to it: the Mammalian Dive Reflex (MDR) — the way our heart rate slows, our body adapts the moment we submerge — is proof that we're not just visitors down there. We're part of it. We always have been.
