THE MOLCHANOV EDUCATION SYSTEM

At the freediving world championships in 2017, Australian Champion, Adam Stern and current world record holder, Alexey Molchanov, were living together for the competition. At this time both of them were unhappy with the current education systems that existed and knew that they could create something better. This was when the Molchanovs Movement was born. Soon, Chris Kim joined the team and together the three of them created what is now considered the worlds leading freediving education system. 

Since then, almost every high level competitive freediver and expert freediving instructor has joined the Molchanovs Movement, enriching it with their experience and knowledge.

Besides having the largest wealth of freediving knowledge and resources to draw upon, what truly sets the Molchanovs Movement apart from other education systems is the focus on continued training and development. A diver does not get better by taking many freediving courses. A diver improves through training because freediving is an athletic activity. 

Freediving courses are where we learn new skills, knowledge and are a period of accelerated development but then what happens after the course? Where does a diver go from there?

This is why all Molchanovs students get access to Base Training. A weekly training program tailor made each week by the worlds best freediving athletes. All the workouts are scalable and designed for any level of freediver to work with. Nothing like Base Training exists anywhere else.
