Who Is Freediving Coaching For?

All freedivers can benefit from a freediving coaching. Personalised coaching is the most effective way to improve your freediving performance safely and efficiently.

Our freediving coaching sessions in Malta and Gozo are designed for freedivers of all levels, from beginners who want more confidence to experienced divers looking for advanced training.

Coached sessions are ideal if you want to ease back in the water, improve form and technique, prepare for a certification, or simply keep progressing as a certified freediver.

WHY YOU NEED AN INSTRUCTOR?

Short answer:  TRAIN SMART -DIVE BETTER

Training on your own with fellow freedivers on the line can be useful practice, but coached sessions give you the advantage of expert observation and correction.

An instructor can help you train smarter by assessing your current freediving skills: identifying strengths, weaknesses, and technical errors; creating a training plan tailored to your goals and level, and offering safety while you focus on technique.

What happens during a Coaching?

Each coaching session starts with the understanding of your personal goals to design the most suited apnea training program.

Under water, with your goals in mind, your instructor will help you improve your freediving performance.

After the water session, your instructor will give you feedback and training advice so that you can keep on maximizing your potential by yourself.

THE MOST COMMON COACHING GOALS ARE:

  • Equalization issues
  • Deep dives, freefall, mouthfill, FRCs & exhale dives
  • Body position, breath holds, overall technique...
  • Relaxation, mental blocks, general knowledge development
  • New freediving disciplines, new diving equipment, etc.

We can help you with all of these and so much more

Why Choose Apnea Total Malta for your Advanced Training?

At Apnea Total Malta, freediving coaching is a structured and personalised training designed to help you progress efficiently. Our experienced instructors assess your underwater performance, identify opportunities for improvement, and provide targeted guidance to help you refine your skills and progress with confidence.

PERSONALIZED COACHING APPROACH

Every freediver progresses differently. We tailor each session to your specific needs rather than following a generic training structure.

EXPERIENCE ACROSS ALL AREAS OF FREEDVING

Thanks to decades of teaching experience, we can provide coaching for virtually any objective: depth, progression, equalization, body position, freefall, relaxation, competition preparation, confidence building and much more.

SMALL GROUPS & INDIVIDUAL ATTENTION

Our coaching sessions ensure direct instructor feedback and close supervision throughout the session. The instructor always dives with you. They never observe from the surface or from shallow water only.

EXPERIENCED PROFESSIONAL INSTRUCTORS

Train with highly experienced instructors specialised in freediving education, skill development, and safety procedures. Their ability to read each student, understand individual needs, and adapt to their pace ensures coaching stays in tune with your progress.

SUSTAINABLE PROGRESS

We prioritise correct technique and safe progression so you can build confidence and improve sustainably. After each session, instructors provide practical advice and tips to help you keep improving beyond the session.

IDEAL TRAINING CONDITIONS

Train in the crystal-clear waters of Malta and Gozo, where excellent visibility and calm seas create perfect conditions for your advanced freediving training.

Meet your Instructors

The success of your freediving journey depends also on your instructor. At Apnea Total Malta, you train with highly experienced and passionate instructors who personalise every session to your needs, level, and goals. Whether you train in Malta or Gozo, you will benefit from decades of experience and a highly personalised approach from both our instructors, Arturo and Reggie.

Arturo and Reggie share a common philosophy: every freediver is unique. Their coaching focuses on safety, relaxation, proper technique, and helping you become the freediver you want to be, not simply chasing numbers.

I took the Discover Spearfishing course, and it was a fantastic day. Both the theory and practical sessions are well-structured, and Arturo is truly an expert. Highly recommended.

Great experience overall. Went spearfishing for 2 days in a row and I got tons of useful tips on how to approach fish, how to handle the gun etc. Mediterranean is no joke so really need to be on point with the technique. Saw some cool spots as well! Thanks!

이집트에서 아이다2따고 처음하는 프리다이빙이어서 조금 긴장된 상태로 펀다이빙을 나갔는데 Reggie강사님의 긍정적이고 밝은 에너지 덕분에 금방 긴장이 풀릴수 있었습니다. 제 컨디션과 실력에 맞추어 다이빙 깊이나 코스(동굴 통과 등)를 그때그때 바꿔주셔서 더욱 재밌게 다이빙을 즐길 수 있었던 것 같습니다. 물 밖으로 나왔을때 걷기도 힘들 정도로 지쳤지만 얼굴은 웃는 얼굴로 나왔습니다. 몰타 프리다이빙 찾고계시면 강력하게 추천드립니다

I came for the free diving discovery day and then extended it to the full course because I liked it so much and felt so well taken care of. Reggie is a superb instructor, both in theory as in practical sessions. Absolutely professional and safe at every step. Highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn freediving!

Wir hatten nur einen Tag Zeit und haben uns deshalb für den Discover Course entschieden. Rückblickend die richtige Entscheidung: Der Vormittag bestand aus Theorie und Einweisung, sodass wir die Grundlagen und die Sicherheitsaspekte verstanden hatten, bevor es überhaupt ins Wasser ging. Am Nachmittag folgte die Praxiseinheit in herrlich blauem, klarem Wasser, und wir konnten das Gelernte tatsächlich umgehend und erfolgreich umsetzen. Dazu trägt vor allem Arturo bei. Mit seiner persönlichen und zugleich professionellen Art motiviert er, nimmt sich Zeit und vermittelt ein Gefühl von Sicherheit und Vertrauen, das bei diesem Vorhaben viel wert ist. Dazu kommt seine lockere, humorvolle Seite, die einem die Anspannung nimmt und dafür sorgt, dass man mit Spaß bei der Sache bleibt. Da die Gruppe klein bleibt, kann er auf jeden Einzelnen individuell eingehen, und wer Spanisch spricht, merkt schnell, wie sehr er sich freut, auch mal auf Spanisch zu erklären. Für alle mit knappem Zeitbudget, die Freediving ernsthaft ausprobieren wollen: klare Empfehlung. Wir bleiben auf jeden Fall dran und kommen dafür gerne noch einmal nach Gozo zu Apnea Total Malta, so gut hat es uns gefallen.

I had an amazing time doing the introductory spearfishing course and freediving coaching sessions. Safety was the first priority which felt very nice, especially with the spearfishing. I found Arturo’s method of teaching very encouraging and I was able to really improve my technique while having a lot of fun!

I took the freediving course at Apnea Total in Gozo, and it was an excellent experience! Arturo, my instructor, shared a lot of knowledge and made me feel very safe in the water. On every dive, he went down with me to the bottom and came back up with me, correcting my technique and giving me new tips for the next dive. I had always wanted to try freediving, but I needed a safe place to do it, and Apnea Total gave me exactly that. Thank you so much, Arturo and the whole Apnea Total Gozo team!
