Monofin course in Berlin, 19th Feburary

I will be giving a monofin course in Berlin, the day before the 12th Berlin Master competition. The course will be in english, but with german translations when necessary.

The course is open for beginners and more experienced freedivers, as the level will be adapted to the participants. You don't have to have your own monofin either, but a pair of rubber training fins or similar would be good.


The course will focus on teaching you the basic, most important movement principles for monofinning and also give you some good tips to develop further. There will be follow up courses after about 3 months to take you to the next step, if you like.

Preliminary schedual:
17:00 - Dry session: Introduction to monofin technique, videos of common mistakes, different styles and monofins.
17:45 - On land: Stretching and strength exercises spesific for monofin technique
18:00 - In water: Practicing movement without fins, with small fins and at last with the monofin. Video before and after, to give the students useful feedback. In water exercises for training programs.
20:00 - Out of the water, final feedback with watching the video from the pool session.

The total duration of the course is ~4 hours and the price is 35 euro. You will need to bring swim gear, fins (small fins + monofin when possible) and comfortable wear for the dry exercises.
