The Subzone Family

More than a freediving school. We're a community sharing a passion for the deep blue.

More than a school, a family

At Subzone Freediving Gran Canaria, we believe freediving is an adventure best enjoyed together. We've grown from a dream into a big family sharing the same passion for the deep blue. If you're looking for a school where excellence meets camaraderie, you're in the right place.

The heart of Subzone

Juan Báez

Official Apnea Academy Instructor · Founder

Raised in a small fishing village in south-west Gran Canaria, Juan has spent the last 40 years of his life "salt-cured" — a testament to his deep connection with the Atlantic.

His love for the sea led him to become an elite spearfishing professional, reaching the top of the regional and national scene. The combination of his solid training, unwavering determination and rigorous discipline culminated in the birth of this freediving school.

His approach combines technique, safety and relaxation so every student builds confidence in the water and steadily improves while discovering the ocean safely and respectfully.
