Become a PADI freedive instructor with BB freedivers.
Becoming a PADI Freedive Instructor lets you take your passion for freediving to the next level and allows you to do what you enjoy as a profession. You must earn the PADI Freediver Instructor rating, it takes training, courage and work. But it is worth all of it to gain a job that lets you share incredible underwater achievements with others, adding this experience to their lives for the better while enriching yours.
There are 3 ways to become a PADI Freediver Instructor rating.
The first is for PADI Open Water Scuba Instructors (or higher rating) who are also experienced freedivers and have a PADI Advanced Freediver certification. They can take the freedive-ic or, if they are experienced in training freediving they may apply directly for the rating by submitting a PADI Freediver Instructor Application to their PADI Regional Headquarters. There is some proof of experience needed.
The second way is for freediver instructors who want to join the PADI organization by attending a PADI Freediver Instructor Orientation.
The third is for experienced freedivers who gain instructional skills by attending a PADI Freediver Instructor Training Course.
