WHO’S FREEDIVING DENMARK?

FreedivingDenmark was founded in Denmark in 2019 as a SSI Freediving Center by Klaus Simonsen. In the beginning Klaus was teaching freediving and spearfishing courses in the pool, the sea and the deepest lakes in Denmark. Since we have had freediving courses in Dive4life, Crete and Hemmor Kreidesee. We have collaborated with professional freelance instructors when needed. 
We had a physical shop with equipment for freediving and spearfishing the first years in the divecenter, and a webshop with equipment when the company name was Fridykkerkurser.dk. 

Klaus found his call in teaching freediving which were much more fun than selling equipment and managing shops. The physical shop was closed down, when He moved to Dahab in the end of 2021.

Teaching Methods

Mindful Coaching

Our approach to coaching cultivates self-awareness in athletes, promoting introspection, resilience, and stress management. Effective mindful coaching helps freedivers alleviate stress and anxiety, fostering a sense of calm and sharper focus. This clarity empowers you to visualize goals more clearly, enhance performance, and map out steps to achieve success.

INDIVIDUALS
We understand that each person enter freediving with a different history, a different motivation to train and a different goal.  Our aim is to guide each diver as an individual with specific needs and challenges
 
MIRROR
“Water is the mirror that has the ability to show us what we cannot see. It is a blueprint for our reality, which can change with a single, positive thought. All it takes is faith, if you’re open to it”
~Masaru Emoto
 
PROGRESS
We can make you do fast progression. But the body needs to adapt and be ready for this. Technique is crutial to become a better freediver. Technique first, then we learn you how to freedive deeper.
APPROACH

Train smart-not hard! Its a big misunderstanding that freediving training should be hard to progress. We will teach you how to train and freediving will always be fun.

5/5
I experienced the trip as very tailored, being part of the group (other freedivers) and not least happy about how friendly and welcoming everyone was. The course itself was really good where I had some fantastic sessions in the water with Klaus who within 2 days got me from 20m dives to 30m extremely comfortable. Later I set my maximum depth to 41 metres, so I am beyond happy. He helped me crack the code to relaxation and beyond in the water.
