The pool-only course encompasses the academics and confined water components of the F.I.I. Level 1 Freediver course. Participants are invited to attend any future F.I.I. Level 1 Freediver open-water component to attain the full Level 1 Freediver cert.

During this course, key academic information is first explained in a classroom setting and then practiced in a controlled confined water environment.

The training for students consists of safety and problem management, proper freediving gear selection, fundamentals of breathing techniques for freediving, understanding of freediving physics and physiology and how these components affect their technique and performance during freediving activities.
