Training Locations

Come train with me

Dahab and the Philippines offer the best conditions to train freediving in the world, unlimited depth, and warm water mean world-class diving and the best opportunity for you to improve as a freediver. I didn’t just stumble on these locations by accident, these are the places I have chosen to be teaching in the coming year.

OCTOBER - MAY 2025/2026

Dahab, Egypt

Dahab is amazing, there are freedivers everywhere, walking down the road you will meet world record holders and anyone who is anyone on the freediving scene. This small Bedouin town has for years been the center of the freediving world, with 90 plus meters just a 20m swim from shore it is the easiest place in the world to access depth and is the perfect place to train.

What to expect, a day in the life.

The blue hole is one of those places you really need to see in your life, and if you are a freediver then it is essential

Days will start by getting picked up by Mohammed, our Bedouin driver who has been working with freedivers for 20 years and is a massive favourite, a personality you won’t forget, sometimes he will bring his son Imran along for the ride dressed in his miniature galabiya just like dad.

We will head to the blue hole and base ourselves at Aqua Marina, a restaurant run by Ali Okab, another celebrity among the freedivers. Ali has seen everything in 15 years of hosting freedivers, he’s been with us celebrating PBs and and new records and is officially the nicest man in Egypt, fact!

No dive day should start without Fankoush, a warm orange and ginger tea to prepare us for the day. then the work begins.

We will spend time planning our dive sessions. I always let people enter the water with a clear outline and goals of what should be achieved in the session. Modest, measurable goals will be laid out so we can see progress in every training. Then we prepare for the dive, either stretching, meditation, or eq drills, all crucial for your progress.
You will see just how perfect Dahab is for depth progression from the first moment you enter the water. minimal waves and no current, 30m visibility, and a ridiculous amount of fish and coral.

JULY 2025

Kalamata, Greece

Kalamata, Greece is one of the best places to train in Europe. The team at Kalamata Freedivers runs a pro-level setup right from the marina, with easy deep water, no current, and a super focused training environment. It’s why I keep coming back every summer.

What to expect, a day in the life.

This summer I’m heading back to Kalmata, Greece for a series of training workshops

Workshop one is a week of depth training designed at making you an independent freediver capable of training and troubleshooting your dives and producing your own training plans

The second event is a 3 day workshop solely focussed on equalization, learning the most effective ways to train dry and in the water. You will learn all you need to progress your EQ with a solid base of dry work and guidance in the water

Please get in touch and I will send you details of the workshops
