About us
apnea.center is a platform of independent freediving instructors and was founded in 2021. We offer a wide range of freediving, relaxation and breathwork courses as well as regular trainings. At apnea.center you can learn freediving in line with the guidelines of AIDA, Molchanovs or PADI (on request also combined) and deepen your knowledge with our trainers. Our relaxation workshops follow Nik Linder’s Relaqua method, and our breathwork courses are very much influenced by the Pranayama philosophy. In Central Europe we are not exactly spoiled by warm waters, therefore we regularly organise trips to tropical countries and warmer temperatures. The apnea.center team speaks a total of nine languages and would love to relax and dive with you.
Customer feedback
“At the beginning of my course at apnea.center my instructor Tobi went through the most important points of the preparation theory again and was able to explain questions and ambiguities understandably and with examples. After the warm-up and breathing exercises we started well prepared into the practical part and could test the apnea diving for the first time. Afterwards Tobi showed us very precisely which little things we should pay attention to and change. He personally addresses each of us, takes into account our previous knowledge, corrects mistakes and praises us for our successes. I was able to achieve great success after only a few dives and was overjoyed.”
“Tobi is friendly, motivating and always in a good mood. He is almost more pleased himself with the successes of his participants than the participants themselves. Throughout the course, safety is his top priority and he reacts very strictly if safety measures are not adhered to. This gave me a very good feeling and I knew at all times that I was well taken care of and supervised. After the dive, he gave personal feedback to each participant and records the achievements. Thank you very much for this great experience in apnoea diving. I look forward to a next time!”
“I can say only positive things about Tobi and I strongly recommend him as a freediving instructor to everyone. He puts technique and safety above everything and combines it with a positive and enthusiastic learning environment. He is able to adjust his teaching methods to your individual learning style and needs. He is willing to explain things over and over again, until you really get it. He is there to support your progress and celebrate your wins, does not matter how big or small they are. And if you already have some experience, he is there to effectively improve it and give you some additional tips.”
