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.

  Freediving UAE is the best thing I’ve came across since I am in Dubai in 5 years. Apart from getting professional trainings for Freediving from Yuryi who is an excellent... read more coach, Freediving UAE became part of my family now. I strongly recommend them if you want to start freediving for a professional level or just for fun.

  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.

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

  Im a fairly seasoned freediver at an intermediate level who has dived in several places and I have to say freediving with Apnea Pirates aka Freediving UEA in Fujairah was... read more surprisingly pleasant. The water condition in Nov was calm and temperature at 27-29 degC was great for a 1.5mm wetsuit. The highlight however was freediving with Yuriy who is very experienced and encouraged me to try new things to fine tune my technique. Most importantly, during my deep dives, Yuriy made me feel very safe and assured. Overall excellent experience and would recommend it to Freedivers of any level!
