Terms and Conditions
By submitting payment, whether in full or partial, for your course, practice session, or trip through the FII online portal or any other method, you are entering into a business contract with the instructor or facility listed on the registration form, not with Freediving Instructors International (FII). All FII Instructors and Facilities operate as independent business entities. FII is an educational organization that oversees the standards and quality of freediving training and supervision provided by its instructors and facilities. However, if you experience any issues related to business practices with your FII Instructor or Facility, you are welcome to contact FII for guidance.

Refund and Cancellation
Student Reschedule or Cancellations
If you have paid a deposit or the full course fee and need to reschedule or cancel, the following terms apply:
- 30+ Days Before Course Start Date: Contact your instructor or facility, you may transfer your enrollment to a different course location or start date (subject to availability) for an administrative fee of 15% of the full tuition fee
- Within 30 Days of Course Start: Contact your instructor or facility, but no refunds or transfers are available.
Please note: All deposits and payments made for boat fees, private training, events, and trips are non-refundable and final
Instructor Cancellations
FII Instructors make every effort to ensure courses are conducted as scheduled. However, freediving is subject to external conditions beyond our control. Instructors reserve the right to cancel or reschedule courses due to:
- Inclement Weather: If the instructor or boat captain determines that weather conditions are unsafe for open-water freediving, the session may be postponed or canceled. In such cases, students may complete the canceled ocean session during a future course (subject to availability) at no additional cost, except for standard boat fees.
- Insufficient Enrollment: To maintain safety, student peer support, and optimal instructor-to-student ratios, courses require a minimum of three enrolled students. If enrollment is insufficient, the instructor may cancel or postpone the course. In this case, students will be offered a transfer to the next available course or a full refund of all fees paid.
By checking the "Terms and Conditions" box on the registration form, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to the Terms and Conditions, including the Refund and Cancellation Policy outlined above.
