Advanced Freediver Course – Level 2

Take Your Freediving to the Next Level

Ready to dive deeper, stay longer, and move with greater efficiency and control? The PADI Advanced Freediver Course is designed for those who have completed Level 1 (or have equivalent certification experience) and are ready to refine their technique, expand breath-hold capacity, and improve depth performance — safely and mindfully.

Led by Kaleigh “Keke” McBride, one of the USA’s top female freediving instructors, this course blends personalized coaching, proven performance methods, and intentional training that helps you unlock your full potential beneath the surface.

At Live Free Diving, we believe in mindful progression — not pressure. Every dive, stretch, and breath is taught with purpose so that you build confidence and control with every session.

What You’ll Learn

• Advanced Relaxation & Breathing Techniques: Master equalization, relaxation, and visualization to extend your bottom time and deepen your comfort.
  
• World-Class Yoga & Stretching Routines: Practices used by elite freedivers worldwide to improve flexibility, awareness, and ease of movement.
  
• Personalized Dive Footage: Review video of your dives with expert feedback to fine-tune body position, finning efficiency, and form.
  
• Rescue Skills & Risk Management: Learn to anticipate, prevent, and respond to potential issues safely and calmly.
  

Where & When

Courses are offered during the summer months in South Florida, and year-round at our international destinations including Barbados, Riviera Maya, and Roatan.

Open-water sessions take place in clear, calm conditions, with inland training options available when needed
