F.L FREEDIVING COACHING & TRAINING SYSTEM
DEVELOPED BY RENEE BLUNDON
At Freediving.Life our aim is to prepare athletes so they can arrive at the line fully ready, mentally and physically, with the skills needed to have effortless and enjoyable dives. A freediver’s training should not only include the obvious depth training elements but also, and arguably more importantly, the technical and mental side of things too.
ACHIEVE YOUR FREEDIVING GOALS
Freediving coaching with the aim to have you achieve your goals. You will learn how to train in freediving in the most efficient way possible with training concepts that will not only save you time but also help prevent illness, over-training and injury. This way you can stay strong and healthy and keep moving in the direction of your freediving goals.
FREEDIVE AND RELAX
We’ll set-up, coach you and provide feedback on your freediving so that you can fully relax and focus on your training and performing your best
DEVELOP HEALTHY HABITS
Build strong and effective habits of meditation, yoga, journaling and sport and live a healthier, happier, more active lifestyle!
AS A COACHED CLIENT YOU WILL RECEIVE ALL OF THE FOLLOWING:

1) YOGA & MEDITATION PRE-DIVE PREPARATION
Every morning before your freediving you are coached through a 1-1.5 hour pre-dive preparation session which includes pranayama meditation, journaling, stretching session (full-body, chest & diaphragm) and (if time) an audio guided dive visualization.

2) COACHED FREEDIVING TRAINING SESSIONS
In-water coached freediving sessions where we set-up the line, do safety for your dives and provide guidance and support, as well as feedback on your freediving techniques.
Every freediving session will have a briefing before getting in the water to discuss the plan for the day and a de-briefing / coaching afterward to discuss your freediving and the next steps.

3) VIDEO ANALYSIS
Wondering about your freediving technique? We’ll take a video of your freedives and review it together after the diving session. We’ll give you feed back on how to freedive more efficiently and we’ll note your improvements and what can still be improved upon.
It’s also extremely helpful for you to see yourself and what you are doing so you can visualize your dives and correct your mistakes.

4) PHOTOS OF YOUR FREEDIVING
It’s always nice to have good underwater photos of your dives, as a momento and to inspire you. Every session, we’ll bring the underwater camera with and take some photos of you freediving on the line (and if there’s time, some pics at the nearby reef.) Check-out example pics on the Freediving.Life Facebook Page!

5) DIVE RECORDING
You will learn how to best log your freedives (and any other training) with time set aside after the diving session to record your training and to note things you learned that day during the session.
This will help you remember helpful insights for the next dive and will keep you feeling motivated and excited about the learning process.

6) FULL EMAIL / CHAT / CALL ACCESS
Call us or write us any time, and we will get back to you as soon as humanly possible. It will be either Renee communicating with you directly or a member of her team. Because of that, we can only handle a limited number of coaching spots.

1) CUSTOMIZED FREEDIVING TRAINING PROGRAM
Created specifically for YOU and YOUR freediving goals. Every program includes technical sessions, target dive sessions and breath-hold training sessions. Dry training for equalization, mental training, static apnea, pool training, breathing, theory and physical training sessions will be added to the program as needed.
The program is adjusted and tweaked daily / weekly depending on your training progress.

3) COACHED DRY SESSIONS / POOL SESSIONS / THEORY
2 Sessions per week; either in the pool, dry exercises, gym training or theory to go to work on and improve your equalization technique, your breathe-up technique, finning and/or free-immersion technique, relaxation, competition preparation, etc (whatever is needed)

6) COMPLETE RECOVERY WORK
I include lifestyle elements in all my programs. This may be specific types of yoga, meditation, walking or whatever you need. Some people need more of this than others, so it is always scaled to what you need.

Testimonials

I came to Dahab to train and improve my water confidence for my upcoming assessment and selection for a special operations forces unit. Renee exceeded my expectations by far. She is not only teaching you about all the various freediving skills, but also invests a lot of time in meditation, breathing techniques and stretching. She is very passionate in whatever she is teaching.
I can highly recommenced Renee to everyone, it would not matter if you would be just beginning to freedive or an elite freediver, she will adapt to your needs quickly.
Thank you Renee for making a better underwater swimmer out of me! -
I came to Dahab looking for a laid back rest from traveling, I was met with a huge freediving family community. I decided to try freediving to see if I could improve my air consumption on open circuit scuba, what I learned was much more.
I was referred to Renee by several people in Dahab we met for coffee, and I could instantly see how much passion she had for the sport. Renee is extremely dedicated, and literally lives to dive. Over four days of training and coaching I learned the different disciplines of freediving, how to practice breath hold techniques, how to stretch and get in the proper frame of mind to dive, physiology behind breathe hold and so much more than any text and article could offer.
What I enjoyed most was how professional the coaching was delivered in such a laid back relaxed comfortable space. Whether you want to improve technique, gain depth, overcome your fears, Renee will safely provide and environment where you can challenge your self and grow as a person and a diver. -
I was in Dahab for two weeks for freediving training and Renee's coaching was excellent. She displayed impressive determination, customer service and commitment. The overall organization was always great even in a sometimes challenging environment.
Thanks to Renee's experience she was able to develop my technique and the mind-set I was approaching free diving with. Her way of coaching was safety oriented and conservative. I was always feeling safe during my dives. This was probably one of the reasons I was able to learn a lot from this experience.
I will surely recommend her to any friends who would either begin with freediving or further develop their skills. -
Renee is a very friendly, professional and cautious person. She takes care about her guest, by doing everything possible to make our stay more pleasant and enjoyable. She loves free-diving and share the secrets and wonders of Dahab with open heart.

It was quite a journey with Renee! We spent one whole month together. She has a unique balance of strength that pushes you forward and sweetness. She tells you what you need to hear and encourages you. “You know you can do it” she kept telling me while I was preparing for my national record attempt. I was very sick during competition days but she knew what to do, she told me which doctor to go and as she told me I would be good in a few days. She was right again. And we did it! WE did the record together. Even if the record hadn't happened I could master a new kind of equalization technique. She gave me exercises, theory and all I needed. It really put my diving into a new level!
