Freediving courses Brisbane — Freediving Australia

You’re about to join Australia’s largest community of freedivers!

All our certified freediving courses have 3 components

In person theory

Because our partnership with the Adreno dive stores around Australia we are lucky to run our theory sessions inside the Adreno stores themselves! 56 Deshon St, Woolloongabba QLD 4102
Pool freediving session

Near the Adreno store is Musgrave pool, which is where we run our pool sessions. The pool is where you are introduced to breath holds and diving techniques before we hit the ocean! 100 Edmondstone St, South Brisbane
Ocean session

The best diving in the region is on the Gold Coast, so for our dive day we head down there and hop on a boat to div the Wonder Reef! It’s AMAZING! Runaway Bay Marina, Hollywell

All our courses include high quality freediving hire gear in the cost of the course.
If you don’t pass the requirements of the course you can come back unlimited times for free until you do!
We'll take you to Brisbane’s best dive spots. The ocean can be unpredictable but we've got you covered. Our main dive site is the spectacular Wonder Reef in the Gold Coast but if it looks too rough we will run the course in the protected waters of the Gold Coast Seaway.
This is not some course where you hop in the water, tick the boxes and wave goodbye. When you take a course with us you are joining Australia’s largest, most active and inclusive community of freedivers. You will be a part of our tribe, with access to our social dives + trips, pool training sessions, free ocean training sessions.

Meet your Brisbane instructors

Brett Davison

Brett found spearfishing and freediving at a very young age and was hooked instantly. He started working for a Dive shop on the beautiful Central Coast when he was 18 years old and he expanded his diving from then and never stopped. His freediving helped him explore the mind and body fixing injuries and healing old trauma, finding great peace and connection to the world around us and himself.
Amber Bourke

Amber Bourke grew up snorkelling the coastlines and islands around Australia and has been teaching freediving since 2013. She especially enjoys diving without fins and holds the current Australian records for both CNF and DNF. Amber enjoys traveling and competing in freediving competitions however she originally got into freediving just to spend more time underwater looking at fish. She struggled a lot with equalisation when she started Freediving and loves to help students overcome their own challenges.

Gear hire is included free of charge in all our courses. Our hire gear is all high quality freediving equipment. It makes a big difference!
All of our courses are Molchanovs courses. Once you finish your course and complete all the requirements you will receive a certification.
If you don’t pass the performance requirements during the course you can come back and dive with us unlimited times until you do! You have 1 year to complete the requirements of the course.
DO NOT scuba dive 24 hours before freediving.
DO NOT dive if you are congested.
DO NOT have a heavy breakfast before your dives.
You need to be at least 16 years old (with a parental/guardian's signed consent).
You need to bring your Medical & Liability Release forms signed and completed before starting the course.
For each level, there are specific prerequisites that you can check above.
The minimum amount of students we can take per course is 3 persons. So if you and your family or friends would like to have a private course (and there are at least 3 of you), then we can definitely arrange a date exclusively for you.
