You don’t perfect your equalization technique, develop genuine relaxation, or build muscle memory by showing up for the occasional session. Relaxation is a skill too — it has to be trained. Progress comes from consistent practice, with someone who can see exactly where and why you’re getting stuck. Unlike our courses, equipment rental isn’t included in the price of training sessions. You can rent all the equipment you need for €15/day.

The world-renowned spot for deep freediving training. Just 10 minutes by car from Dahab, this is where we take you for your deepest dives once your technique is well established. A $20 National Park entrance fee is payable separately from the session.
If you’re looking to make a real step up — not just maintain the level you already have — this is our structured training option. Seven days built around the water: five days training at Lighthouse and Blue Hole, plus two dry days focused on equalization work, stretching and gentle recovery yoga. Because your body needs time to absorb the work too.
Before we start, we assess your current level and what you want to achieve, then build a training plan around what you actually need to improve. That’s how you make a real jump in level in just one week.
Certified freedivers who want to keep improving specific aspects of their diving, such as equalization, relaxation, finning technique, duck dives, breathing and more.
We provide all the equipment you need.
In person in Dahab or online from wherever you are.
Equalization is the number one barrier most freedivers run into. It’s usually not a lack of breath-hold, but not knowing how to manage pressure early enough. We work on equalization using the SHARE Method, a specific system designed to refine your equalization technique progressively and safely, both on dry land and in the water.
If you’ve been stuck at the same depth for a while, want to learn advanced Frenzel (mouthfill), or feel that equalization is holding you back, there’s a good chance the problem is technical — it’s not that you’re simply “not made for this”.
If you want to start working on your equalization, we offer regular one-to-one sessions by video call. We’ll guide you through dry exercises to work on the problem before your next session in the water.
We offer a free 30-minute assessment call. We’ll look at how you’re currently equalizing and tell you, with no pressure or commitment, what’s going wrong and how we would work on it.
