don’t have access to the open water. It can also be done over the winter and combined
with the Outdoor Apnea later to get a Level 1 certificate.
The requirements for passing this course are a static apnea of 1:45, a DYN (dynamic apnea
with fins) of 30m and a DNF (dynamic apnea without fins) of 20m.
We will discover physiology, equipment, the aquatic nature of man, we will work with your
technique in dynamic apnea, movement in the water, static apnea, safety and protocol for
when we are in the water, breathing and cleansing techniques as well as relaxation and
preparation for diving.
