About Spearfisherz
OUR FREEDIVING & SPEARFISHING SCHOOL
Based in Malta, we are dedicated and passionate about the sea & specialized in teaching people to freedive and spearfish.
While safety is always our primary concern, our teaching method provides the necessary knowledge and keeps the main focus on mastering the proper skills and techniques.
Goals and numbers, even though being a popular motivator, should only come as a result of doing things the right way.
Our philosophy is to teach people to follow this way while enjoying their journey.

“Wilderness is my second home. It nurtures a healthy body, mind and spirit.
Coming from the Mediterranean waters I’ve been exploring the underwater World ever since I was a kid. When sea was not available I did regular pool training and dived in various lakes and rivers.
For 10 years I trained apnea and competitive finswimming, and in 2004 I participated in an AIDA freediving competition.
As I grew older I turned to the recreational side of the sport, in search of adventure, exploration and simply for the pure joy of it. Over time I also developed a growing passion for spearfishing.
For the past 8 years I live in Malta where I spearfish regularly throughout the year. Gradual and steady progress took my freediving and spearfishing to another level, and this amazing sport became my lifestyle.
When I was just starting out it was difficult to learn much about spearfishing and for this reason I decided to make it easier for the future spearos.
I gathered all valuable knowledge that I earned through decades of experience, training, research and education and I’m sharing it all with you in my courses.
While it’s clear that my love is spearfishing, I am equally dedicated to teaching people to freedive in a safe, efficient and relaxed way. Freediving is an integral part and a fundamental cornerstone for any underwater activity on a single breath of air.”
* AIDA is the first, biggest and most recognized freediving association in the World.
