AIDA

AIDA International (International Association for the Development of Apnea) founded in 1992 and is the global authority for competitive freediving. This association organizes the most important international freediving competitions and verifies and records all freediving records. AIDA’s goals include further research and development of freediving techniques and science, and the safe and effective training of recreational freedivers. Many of the sport’s greatest freedivers belong to AIDA, including William Trubridge, Guillaume Nery and others.

AIDA organizes freediving courses into four levels. Each level teaches the diver progressively more advanced skills, and has specific requirements to achieve certification. The levels focus on three disciplines of freediving dynamic, static, and constant weight
