Every year, in collaboration with Emyana<\/strong><\/a> we organize freediving retreats in the Calanques in June and September.<\/strong><\/p>

This is an opportunity to experience the Freediver course<\/strong> in a different format, without time pressure and in breathtaking locations that remind me why I dive and what keeps me motivated. For those who are already certified<\/strong>, it\u2019s a chance to review the basics and train in this little paradise.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Enjoy a dream getaway to discover freediving and practice yoga from June 10 to 14<\/strong>\u00a0or September 9 to 13, 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>

We will stay in a beautiful 230m\u00b2 Proven\u00e7al bastide with a swimming pool, where we can practice static and dynamic apnea, as well as yoga on the terrace.<\/p>

The deep-water sessions will take place in the Calanques of Cassis and La Ciotat<\/strong>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
