More about Freediving

Why take a freediving course

At SALT Escape, we understand that everyone has their unique reasons for diving into the depths of the ocean. Whether you’re an explorer, seeking interactions with marine life, view freediving as a meditative practice, or pursuing water sports like surfing, spearfishing, or underwater photography, we embrace diverse motivations.

Freediving is more than just a sport; it’s a personal journey. Some find solace in the rhythmic dance with the ocean, while others embrace the thrill of encountering marine life up close. Whether you see freediving as a path to self-discovery, a means of managing mental or physical wellness, or a combination of various motivations, our instructors are here to guide you.

Our commitment is to provide you with an enriching freediving experience while prioritising safety and continuous progress. We understand that stepping into the underwater world might seem daunting, but our skilled instructors are dedicated to making it a seamless and enjoyable journey for you.

Begin your freediving adventure with us where passion, expertise, and the beauty of the ocean come together to create an unforgettable experience!

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.

Welcome to the Community

Taking your freediving course is just the beginning of your freediving journey.

You’ll now be a part of the SALT Escape community! We are a busy, bustling and chatty community that plan fun dives, training and freediving retreats together! Once you finish your course we’ll add you to our community groups so you can keep freediving!

On top of the Molchanovs Base Training you will also have the option to join the Hurricane Squad weekly training. In short, we want to provide our community with as many options for them to keep diving. Whether they just want to join in on our fun dives, follow the Molchanovs Base Training or join our pool training sessions to keep improving. The community is the best part of freediving!
