The Beginner's Path
New to the breath-hold game?
Four stages take you from your first nervous duck-dive to a calm, confident 15-metre hunt — safely, and entirely at your own pace.
Start the path-
0–2 mStage 01
Breathe & relax
Master the breath-up and the mammalian dive reflex before you ever slip under.
-
5 mStage 02
Duck-dive & equalize
A clean head-first descent and the Frenzel that keeps your ears happy at depth.
-
10 mStage 03
Streamline & glide
Weighting, finning and the relaxed free-fall that quietly saves your air.
-
15 mStage 04
Hunt with control
Stalking, the shot, and a calm, controlled ascent — every single time.
