Europe’s best freediving courses: Deep Med x Molchanovs
Our choice for choosing the Molchanovs freediving system was simple; it was created by Freedivers for freedivers. On top of that, their online platform for base training is a great tool for both beginners and advanced freedivers alike.
Our courses are far from short like any other courses around, probably worldwide and not only in Europe. They are significantly longer and more comprehensive with a commitment to providing thorough and in-depth knowledge and well as in water training experience. This is a huge contrast to the typical shorter courses. More time practicing only means you will leave the course with a confident skill-set and a solid understanding.
Equalisation is a skill that stops freedivers of any level from progressing with depth. It is for this reason we train it daily with various tools. We teach equalisation theory which include; Air shift techniques, Pressure theory, Airspaces, Boyles law and the effect on these airspaces and much more. Followed by theory, we assign exercises to each student and repeat, repeat, repeat!
Here at Deep Med, our instructors are currently qualified to teach up to Wave 3. The Junior program has also been launched. Our courses are minimum 1 week and we have packages that include accommodation, and to top it all off we go for a fun dive at least once a week!
Coaching and Training
Our coaching programs are designed for those who do not wish to pursue certificates, but rather peace, joy and comfort in every dive. We work on skills by dripping information at a pace that matches how quickly you absorb it. It takes hard work and dedication from the freediver but we will be with you every step of the way.
On the other hand, we are slowly setting up our deep training. The water surrounding Gozo are deep. The drive time in the boat will approximately be 15-20 minutes from Xlendi (where the boat is moored). We offer training sessions with or without safety. These sessions do not include any coaching or advice from the staff.
Freediving retreats with Deep Med
As of yet, we do not have anything officially launched but we are thinking of cooking up something special in the off season during the winter time. Imagine yourself bunking and living in a traditional Gozitan farmhouse, filled with arches, little rooms where they used to keep their cattle and a cosy fireplace. Freedivers all living together, sharing the same passion!
During the retreat, we’ll have dry equalisation workshops, Open Water line diving, trekking along the cliffs, body movement exercises and of course, fun diving (cave & wreck diving)! This is the beauty of Gozo, which provides shelter in all directions of wind, making it possible to freedive whilst allowing us to find depth wherever we go!
Conclusion
As you can see, Gozo is pretty much and ideal place to come freediving. We literally have it all and this is only the beginning of our journey. Constantly striving on providing the best customer experience. So, if you’re up for a chat or simply want to come freediving with us, drop us an email and we’ll get right back to you!
