I'm looking for a trip this summer, ideally Europe, to go to improve my freedivING. I've been diving for a while have a sound technical knowledge and just want to work on some techniques, particularly no fins.
I have no interest in yog, theory, or certification and do not want to spend any time in a pool.

Anyone know of a good place to do some training and nice dives?
 
Just out of curiosity, is your sound technical knowledge base attained through a formal course, or through "trial and error". If you don't want to get into all the formality of a class, but have a good grasp on safety, buddy rescue, and all the other things that taking a class impart, then there are a number of Greek live-aboard trips that are economical and well-suited, I would think. Check these guys out as a start: http://www.aegeanboard.gr/?p=diving

I think you'll struggle to find more reputable providers allowing you to dive without demonstrating some sort of certification or base training in Freediving. Most centers now will encourage you to at least have a basic level course before joining them on any dives.
