Lap 2 — further on
one breath
Lap 2 builds on your Lap 1 foundation: advanced equalization, longer static and dynamic apnea work, refined finning and streamlining — the open-water-track training that starts pointing toward advanced and instructor-level freediving.
What you'll learn
- Advanced equalization technique — the key to moving further on a single breath
- Longer static and dynamic apnea — longer holds, calmer mind, real training structure
- Refined finning and streamlining — efficiency that makes distance look effortless
- Advanced buddy and rescue protocols — trained to a higher safety standard, not just a longer breath

What's next: advanced training & the instructor track
After Wave 2 the path opens to advanced, depth-focused training — and, in a future phase, an instructor track at Freediving NYC itself. The sport's ceiling is high; the ladder here is built to climb.
