OBJECTIVES AND DURATION
The stage "TRAIN THE DEPTH IN COMFORT" is an innovative internship where free-diving skills are improved, thanks to the main purpose of the stage: the COMFORT.
Participants will learn to disconnect from the concept of performance. Shifting the attention to other aspects and variables of the dive, everything will become easier.
Working on specific free-diving skills through coded training procedures, a lot of variable of the dive performance will be adjusted. This approach allows the freedivers to enhance their level of motor control (know how to do), equalization (know how to equalize) and consciousness (know how to feel).
Are you willing to review your way of thinking on the freediving?
The stage is organized in independent modules so that every diver has a chance to experience and understand what are his strengths and which ones need to be trained.
The workshop is divided in dry and water exercises that will allow the athletes to focus their attention on the depth and its related contents.
New concepts designed by Federico Mana, will be unfolded bringing the divers to approach new frontiers from the concept of COMFORT.
Federico Mana will personally keep all the course, with the help of his staff instructor.

TOPICS COVERED
The internship, based on the new publication of Federico Mana: "Train the Deep Freediving", has an INNOVATIVE architecture and new teaching methods.
In particular, 4 specific areas will be trained:
• Technical area
• Air-Shift
• Equalization
• Dive time
• Adaptation to the depth
At the end of the workshop you will receive an achievement certification by Federico Mana and Y-40® The Deep Joy.
