Welcome to Awareness Freediving

He creates a calm, safe and encouraging space for you to learn and excel. I am completely hooked and can't wait to continue my training!”

“I had a blast taking the program AIDA 1.
I thought I was doing it right before I started the AIDA1. The instructor will walk through all the proper skills and techniques step by step In Class and pool session. Definitely recommended to anyone”

“ I just completed an AIDA3 Pool course with Jorge and have a very positive feedback about it. AIDA3 education is primarily intended for deepening the theoretical knowledge about different aspects of freediving, improving equalization skills and learning how to train properly. Jorge has a lot of freediving experience and was very open to share it during the course, as well as to answer any questions we had and go into as much details as it was needed for each of us to understand certain topics better”

“I took the AIDA 1 course with Jorge in Jan/20. As an instructor, I found Jorge to be very knowledgeable as well as patient and thorough. Going over the course material, he ensured that I understood it and was comfortable with it. In the water, he was very encouraging and spent the time to ensure I was doing everything correctly. It was also nice that with the small class size, the attention was personalized and I never felt rushed. it was pretty much at my own pace and once comfortable, we would move onto the next phase of the training. Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed the course and would highly recommend Jorge for anyone considering the AIDA courses. I plan to do the next AIDA course with Jorge in the spring.”

“ I took AIDA 3 Pool with Jorge and loved the course. Jorge is very experienced and knowledgeable and it was a pleasure to learn from such a high-performing professional. He helped me improve my techniques and learn new skills, especially around the frenzel equalization method. He also paid a lot of attention to the preparation needed to perform at your best: we talked a lot about breathing exercises, yoga, and warm-ups. As an engineer and an enthusiast in human anatomy, Jorge had a strong grasp of the physics and physiology that pertain to the sport. I would certainly recommend his courses to intermediate freedivers wanting to push their understanding and abilities in the sport”
