Workshop Overview
Master Frenzel Equalisation — 2 Day In-Person Course
From Kalamata freediving Academy with David Mellor and Gary McGrath
Both Gary and David are well known experts in freediving equalization and have been running workshops all over the world for years. Now they will be bringing this expertise to the Academy
If you are:
Struggling with equalisation?
Stuck at a certain due to injury or eq failure?
Or want to build control and awareness you can rely on every dive?
This 2-day in-person course is designed to give you a complete understanding and control of Frenzel equalisation—whether you’re just starting or refining advanced technique.
No shortcuts. Just structured coaching that works from two UK record holders
What you’ll gain:
• Clear, repeatable and safe Frenzel technique
• The ability to equalise deeper, more safely, and with less effort
• A full understanding of what’s actually happening when you equalise
• Increased awareness and control in the water
• Tools to troubleshoot and self-correct
How the workshop is structured:
This isn’t just theory or just water time:

You’ll leave with a method you can continue to develop long after the course.
Who is it for:

• Freedivers who can’t equalise consistently
• Divers stuck at a depth plateau
• Anyone wanting to make their diving safer, smoother, and more efficient
