### Ofucos 歐夫寇斯 About the Venue

Introduction

Ofucos, located in Gongliao's Longdong Bay, is one of the few Taipei Freediving venues in the area that offers accommodation, providing a one-stop experience from diving to overnight stays.

### Ofucos 歐夫寇斯 Mystery Shopper's Take

Review

#A superb freediving stay in Longdong with an excellent location

REVIEWED BY [May Chen](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/may-chen/)

Ofucos primarily employs young instructors, but they are all highly experienced and generous with their knowledge, sharing insights into the beauty of the underwater world and essential tips for beginners. May found herself internalizing their enthusiastic advice.

The theory lessons began with understanding the body's structure and respiratory organs, complemented by custom-made videos and practical exercises. For a beginner like May, these were incredibly helpful for breath-holding, breath regulation, and equalization.

During practical sessions, the instructors meticulously filmed each dive, allowing May to immediately spot and correct any flaws in her technique. Under their guidance, she felt secure learning more diving skills. While visibility in Longdong isn't always ideal, its proximity makes it convenient for those living in northern Taiwan to return for re-tests or regular group practice.

Beyond instruction, the instructors placed a strong emphasis on water safety. In addition to sharing correct concepts, they used simulated drills to teach May how to assist others in the event of an accident, preventing potential tragedies. This was truly invaluable. While diving is a challenging sport, the instructors at Ofucos made it accessible and enjoyable, making it May's top recommendation for Taipei Freediving.

## Qianxingzhe Studio 潛行者事務所

PLATE 02–03

### 潛行者事務所 About the Venue

Introduction

Qianxingzhe Studio is a professional studio in Taipei City where you can learn Taipei Freediving and earn international certifications, boasting over a dozen professional instructors. Their Taipei Freediving courses utilize the internationally recognized SSI certification system, offering structured teaching content.

The studio maintains a student-to-instructor ratio of approximately 5:1, ensuring that students receive ample guidance. Their most popular SSI Level 1 Taipei Freediving certification course spans two days and includes: 
*   1 foundational theory session
*   3 foundational practical sessions
*   2 deep-water training sessions

 On the first day of the course, training takes place at Wanhua Sports Center. Students begin with a theory class in a multi-purpose classroom, where they must achieve a test score of 84 or higher. Afterward, they move to the swimming pool for foundational practical training, which includes a static apnea test with a standard of 2 minutes; if not passed, students can retest the following day.

The second day's course shifts to the 5-meter pool at Songshan Sports Center, focusing on deep-water Taipei Freediving training. Key learning points at this stage include practical skills such as horizontal diving, descent techniques, and underwater rescue.

#Learn Taipei Freediving at your own pace

REVIEWED BY [Alvin](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/%E6%A5%B5%E7%B0%A1%E6%97%85%E8%A1%8C-alvin/)

Once you've successfully booked a Taipei Freediving course, you'll be invited to join a LINE group where Qianxingzhe Studio instructors provide thoughtful reminders before and after class.

Taipei Freediving is an extreme sport where accidents can easily happen if you're not careful. That's why Qianxingzhe Studio instructors closely monitor students throughout the practical sessions, repeatedly emphasizing safety guidelines. This meticulous approach made Alvin feel very secure.

Another noteworthy point is that if a student is progressing more slowly, one of the instructors will provide extra coaching by the pool. There's no need to worry about falling behind or holding up other classmates; you can practice comfortably at your own pace.

## DivingMind DivingMind 潛意識

### DivingMind 潛意識 About the Venue

Introduction

DivingMind, an AIDA-certified training center, is a top choice for Taipei Freediving, emphasizing small class sizes and comprehensive instruction. They offer a full range of courses, from AIDA 2 to AIDA 4, and even professional instructor training. In addition to their Taipei location, they also have a branch in Hengchun.

Their most popular AIDA 2 Taipei Freediving certification course spans three days, covering academic theory, confined water practice, and open water sessions. The open water locations vary seasonally: from May to October, courses are held in the Northeast Coast, while from November to April, they move to Hengchun or Taichung's Divecube.

All Taipei Freediving courses are conducted in small groups to ensure high-quality instruction. Theory and pool sessions are capped at 8 students per class, while open water sessions are limited to 6. If a class has more than 4 students, an assistant instructor is provided for more thorough guidance and supervision.

Graduates can continue to participate in regular group practice sessions and retakes organized by instructors, only needing to cover venue entrance fees. Additionally, students enjoy exclusive discounts on equipment rentals and eligibility for periodic dive trips, providing robust community support for divers.

#Taipei Freediving Schools with Ample Practice Time

REVIEWED BY [Lorena](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/lorena/)

Throughout the entire Taipei Freediving course, Lorena felt the instructors' immense patience and gentle guidance. For example, during equalization training, which can be a sticking point, or during potentially nerve-wracking ocean sessions, the instructors would slowly guide everyone, allowing them to gradually get the hang of it without rushing.

After the course, each student also receives a personalized video documenting their precious moments.

If you don't pass the certification during the class, there's no need to worry. DivingMind offers group practice sessions four days a week, with about three sessions daily in pools, deep pools, and at the beach. During each session, an assistant instructor is present to help record and adjust posture. The post-class practice ratio of assistant instructors to students is 1:4, with a maximum of four students per buoy.

While freediving certification can be challenging to obtain, the extensive practice time offered by DivingMind and the continued patient support from assistant instructors make the journey to certification much smoother.

### Liquid Vision 自由潛水合作社 About the Venue

Introduction

Liquid Vision offers Taipei Freediving courses with both PADI and AIDA international certification systems, allowing students to choose the right freediving certification for their needs. For example, the AIDA2 course includes two theory classes, one pool session, and two open-water sessions.

Booking these courses is flexible: groups of two or more can arrange their own class times with an instructor. Solo registrants, however, must follow the venue's monthly published schedule.

Beyond full certification courses, the venue also provides single-session group practice for freediving, allowing certified students to focus on improving specific skills. Students can discuss their training goals with an instructor and train alongside other divers, making it a highly recommended way to continue their education.

Group practice is divided into four main types, depending on the location and training objectives: 
*   Equalization practice
*   Pool group practice
*   Open-water independent practice
*   Open-water training

Review

#Even professional instructors come to learn

REVIEWED BY [MEICIH](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/MEICIH/)

MEICIH took a Taipei Freediving course with Chen Yung-kang, the founder of Liquid Vision. His teaching style is gentle, rigorous, and meticulous, ensuring a solid foundation in the sport.

According to him, most students need over a year of practice, and only 20% earn an AIDA2 certification from him. MEICIH herself spent two years, attending over 10 pool and ocean practice sessions, before finally getting certified. She plans to continue her journey with Liquid Vision by enrolling in the AIDA3 course.

Beyond beginner courses, this freediving cooperative's theoretical expertise is considered top-tier in the industry. Their equalization specialty course, in particular, is so highly regarded that many AIDA3, AIDA4, and even other freediving instructors seek it out.

Liquid Vision is highly recommended for those who are patient, self-motivated, and eager to master solid freediving techniques.

### Heyhey Dive About the Venue

Introduction

Heyhey Dive in Shilin offers AIDA-system Taipei Freediving courses, renowned for their comprehensive post-course group training. Their curriculum focuses on achieving AIDA freediving certification, with a complete plan from theoretical academics to open-water practicals.

Courses are taught in small groups, with one instructor guiding a maximum of six students, supported by one assistant, ensuring a student-to-teacher ratio no higher than 4:1. The AIDA2 course, for example, includes two academic sessions and four practice sessions in confined and open water.

Training venues vary by course stage. Academic classes are held at Heyhey Dive's Shilin studio. Pool training takes place at Shilin Qianjiang Swimming Pool, while ocean practicals adjust seasonally: May to September at Longdong, and October to April at Taichung Divecube.

To prevent students from becoming "diving orphans" after certification, the venue provides excellent post-course services. In addition to group training activities more than twice a week, students also receive free re-examination opportunities for one year and participate in regular dive trips, helping them continuously improve their skills.

#The Chillest Taipei Freediving Course

REVIEWED BY [Unn](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Unn/)

In the AIDA2 Taipei Freediving course, the instructors are incredibly patient with every student, guiding them without rigid, formulaic teaching methods, making the entire class fun and full of laughter. After each dive, no matter how it went, the first thing you hear is always praise, which made UNN's confidence soar!

The studio where the theory lessons are held is also decorated to be very chill. Heyhey Dive even partnered with a Longdong café, providing students with a comfortable place to relax after diving in the summer heat. This is a Taipei Freediving studio that truly embodies "relaxation" in both its environment and teaching style.

Best of all, Heyhey Dive also provides underwater videos and photos, which is definitely something to look forward to!

### Diversity 潛城 About the Venue

Introduction

Diversity offers Taipei Freediving courses in Zhonghe and near Zhishan Station, with a 1:3 small-group AIDA system that provides flexible learning options. The venue offers frequent classes and also accepts private group bookings, allowing for greater scheduling flexibility.

Its Taipei Freediving certification courses are divided into theory, pool, and open water sessions. The first stage of indoor classes is typically held on weekday evenings, comprising two days of seven hours of theoretical instruction and one day of four hours of pool practical training. These sessions take place at the Zhonghe studio and the Zhishan Keqiang Park swimming pool, respectively.

In addition to the greater Taipei area, course locations also extend to Taichung, Tainan, and Kaohsiung. After completing pool training, students can choose different locations for their second stage of open water practical training, based on their personal plans. Options include: 
*   Northeast Coast
*   Kenting
*   Xiaoliuqiu
*   Green Island

 For certified students, the venue organizes irregular group practice sessions and provides free re-examination opportunities. If a student does not pass the final assessment, subsequent re-examinations do not require additional tuition fees; participating in group practice only requires covering venue and equipment costs, which helps in continuous skill improvement.

#Taipei Freediving for the Office Crowd

REVIEWED BY [Lucas](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/Lucas/)

Beyond the standard curriculum, Diversity also offers courses in buoy setup and environmental safety, providing a more comprehensive Taipei Freediving skill set.

Additionally, the first phase of their Taipei Freediving course offers a relatively flexible schedule. Unlike intensive programs, Diversity spreads classroom and pool training across weekday evenings, with locations conveniently within a five-minute walk of MRT stations. This makes it ideal for working professionals, allowing them to attend after work without needing to take time off.

Lucas also highlights Diversity's excellent after-sales service as a key feature. Since most people can't master freediving in just a few days, ongoing practice is crucial!

Even if you attend alone, there's no need to worry. Diversity operates like a big family, regularly organizing group practice sessions, dive trips, and alumni gatherings, helping you connect with like-minded dive buddies.

### 面鏡臉 About the Venue

Introduction

Mianjinglian is a Taipei Freediving instructor team dedicated to providing professional instruction, comprising a diverse group that includes a former taekwondo athlete and Taiwan's first deaf female instructor. These ocean-loving young people bring unique backgrounds and passion to offer varied teaching perspectives for those learning freediving.

The Taipei Freediving courses here follow the international AIDA certification system and provide comprehensive training plans. For example, the AIDA2 course includes: 
*   4 theory classes
*   3 pool sessions
*   3 open water freediving sessions

Students need a total of four days to complete and obtain the AIDA freediving certification.

To ensure teaching quality and student safety, all courses are conducted in small groups with a 1:4 instructor-to-student ratio. This ratio allows instructors to fully monitor each student's progress and provide immediate guidance and assistance, ensuring students grow in a safe environment.

Theory and pool practical training sessions are held at Xinzhuang Sports Center. For the crucial open water practical sessions, the instructor team flexibly selects the most suitable sea area based on the season (winter or summer) and current weather conditions.

#Flexible multi-city classes across Taiwan

REVIEWED BY [露西后](https://www.twosevenths.com/en/tag/%E9%9C%B2%E8%A5%BF%E5%90%8E/)

The instructors at Mianjinglian are so approachable that you'll feel completely at ease. During confined water sessions, they'll even record your diving posture. While it might be a little embarrassing to see your mistakes, the videos offer clear insight into your movements, helping you quickly understand and correct common beginner errors like bicycle kicking with your fins.

Winter open water sessions are held at Divecube Hotel in Taichung. It's worth noting that Mianjinglian also offers summer open water freediving courses beyond the Northeast Coast, with options for island trips to places like Orchid Island and Green Island. Plus, you can attend make-up sessions and practice groups at any of their locations!

Twosevenths' mystery shopper Lucy Hou thinks Mianjinglian is perfect for those who love dive travel. You can combine a dive trip with earning your Taipei Freediving certification and even meet many like-minded diving buddies outside of class.

## Final _Thoughts_

This concludes our Taipei Freediving recommendations, featuring seven top venues personally vetted by Twosevenths mystery shoppers.

There's no single "best" Taipei Freediving certification system or venue; the ideal choice is one that helps you master the skills to dive safely, freely, and comfortably.

We hope this review helps you find your perfect Taipei Freediving course! If you're an outdoor enthusiast who loves trying various water activities, don't forget to add Taipei Scuba Diving and Taipei SUP to your experience list.
