Integrating this groundbreaking research with ten years of extensive teaching experience and training of world class freediving athletes, F.I.I. has identified the key knowledge and essential skills to effectively train individuals in the sport of recreational freediving. Many freediving education agencies place less importance on technique and knowledge and more importance on performance. This ineffective teaching method offers the diver a quick performance increase that is quickly limited by poor technique, discomfort and eventual injuries. F.I.I.'s principles are based upon developing core techniques and understanding that, from this solid safe foundation, performance follows, and the true freediver evolves.F.I.I. has gone on to become the fastest growing freediving education agency in the world with professional and elite trained instructors in high demand worldwide. www.freedivinginstructors.com
