I did both my AIDA 2 und 3 courses with Yuriy at Freediving UAE. Yuriy is a great instructor who is able to understand each participant’s little problems when progressing... read more at freediving. They also offer regular trainings (pool and open water) allowing you to progress even after your course has been completed. If you ever wanted to try out freediving in the UAE, this is your best place! Hope to see you at the buoy some day.

  Yuri is really professional and makes students feel comfortable, practicing in a safe and cool environment!

  Freediving UAE brings a several important things to the table that you seldom find in comparable clubs.
1. Quality teaching that is truly a notch above the rest: AIDA courses are... read more taught by Yuriy, who is not only a regular judge at freediving competitions across the world but have also been a practitioner of freediving for more than a decade. The man has and ocean of experience, but what truly stands out is the patience and commitment when he transfers these skills to students. I have done AIDA2 course with him and what really struck me is how he works with each person at their own pace to get them to the milestones needed to be certified for that level. Once you have completed a course with him, you truly feel able, comfortable, and confident to do the dive.
2. A Real Passion for Freediving: Yuriy has a sincere love for freediving. My experience with his business stands in stark contrast to the experience I had with a different company when I did my Scuba course. Freediving UAE is not just out to get your money. There is a genuine interest to cultivate a love for the sport and to make sure you are technically equipped.
3. Social Interaction: You will see that several people who has left review use the words “freediving family”. I can vouch for that! One of the great aspects of this group is that you meet and stay in contact with people that share the same interest of diving.

  I've been training with Freediving UAE over a year now (off and on) and I have to say Yuri and his program is very professional and consistent. I attended... read more the AIDA Level 2 course as well as static training, dynamic training training and of course the weekend depth training. The website is easy to use with quick booking and I've bought a number of things from the merchandise store. I look forward to training more with everybody because they are a great group.

  I got my first Freediving certificate back in 2016 and met the Freediving UAE team back in 2018 during the Freedive Expo in Dubai for the first time. Since then... read more I am training and diving with Freediving UAE on a regular base! Professional and fun trainings with people who care a lot about safety - these important components make the whole experience truly enjoyable. It's a very nice community - experienced deep divers, beginners - everyone is enjoying the time in the water and is supporting each other. And this group which is still growing! Thanks a lot for all the efforts of captain Yuiry, who shaped the best Freediving School and Community in the UAE - looking forward for the next dive on Friday!
