Robert, just wanted to drop you a quick thank you note for the class this weekend. Although the weather was far from ideal, it was a great learning experience and I appreciate your hard work in teaching us knuckleheads. Just wanted to say many thanks and all the best.

I had an incredible time. Never would have done it without the great help from my instructor. I would recommend the class to anyone!!!!!!!!

The F.I.I. Freediver Level 1 course is a very well structured free diving course. I could learn a lot from it and from João Filipe da Costa / FII Freediving instructor - a highly qualified and experienced free diver. His concerns on security and the quality of the given information are notorious. The team work was great.

Drift freediving with Oliver Haroun, was an amazing experience. I felt extremely comfortable/safe,with him and his staff. There attention to safety is number one aspect of the course. I highly recommend him for training on all levels of expertise.

I decided to sign up for the FII level 2 class with Drift Freediving and Oliver Haroun after taking his level 1 course earlier in the summer. I really appreciated the fact that the level 1 course was required even though I could already dive to the max depth and time for the course because the class was focused on riding me of my bad habits and getting me into efficient and safer techniques. After fully integrating the level 1 techniques into my spearfishing routine I thought it was time to step up my game again. FII’s level 2 provides an excellent source of information for becoming a proficient and mindful freediver. Oliver’s guidance and feedback ensured that we were performing every technique, from stretches to recovery breaths, perfectly. We learned to understand all of our body’s signs and reviewed them after each dive for safety and to set new goals. Oliver followed every student down to provide them feedback on their dive but to also challenge the divers to recognize their own mistakes. This allowed us to develop great technique very quickly and solidify it as habit. The class took me from a previous max of 85’ to 117’ and provided me with the knowledge and skills to continue to progress. The knowledge I gained in just 3 days will provide the foundation for a lifetime of better and safer diver. If you’re serious about freediving or spearfishing, take FII’s level 2 with Drift Freediving and you’ll be a better diver for it!
