This is pretty interesting. It still seams like alot of guess work and hope it turns out alright. You know pools might be alot deeper over there! Sure that would explain alot!

I'm curious how they met the CESA and air sharing requirements in a 4m max pool?
"Demonstrate controlled air sharing as both donor and receiver while in a stationary
position in confined water and at a minimum depth of 15 feet (4.6 m) in open water.
* • Successfully demonstrate a controlled emergency swimming ascent in both confined
and open water from a minimum depth of 15 feet (4.6 m).
* • Demonstrate air sharing as both a donor and a receiver utilizing an alternate air
source during ascents in confined water and from a minimum depth of 15 feet (4.6m)
to the surface in open water. (Do not use buddy breathing)"
Wouldn`t bother PADI at all as they (guests) are not taking part in a PADI sanctioned course and a DM has no duty of care whatsoever unless assisting or instructing.Will PADI back you up if something happens to them?
...I have to say I am impressed-what is CMAS saving for the advance course?
An interesting question; "valid certification in freediving?" If you can dive to a certain depth and stay down for a certain amount of time and you find out your cert is invalid, is the time/depth cut in half? Sarcastic I know but I am truly wondering what is meant by valid/invalid in this case.I need help verifying if the certification of my lvl 1 cmas freediving course is valid or not
