We had an incredible turn out last night for our level 1 freedive course in the pool! We worked on duck diving, being properly weighted, static apnea and rescuing our dive buddy! These are skills that are absolutely worth having when diving in the ocean, or in springs and lakes!

Having your own gear for free diving allows you to feel comfortable during your dives. There’s no surprises, you know what to expect which allows you to follow relax and focus on breathing and also focus on holding your breath.

This is a streamline position. The pros of being streamline increases your efficiency, maximizing your dive, and potentially allows you to dive deeper with less effort. Thus allowing the oxygen in your blood last longer!

Running into the new year like… 🤪 When I was little I used to try to hold my breath as long as possible in our community pool during the summer. I always wondered how long it took for the lifeguard to worry and jump in.. it never happened. Did anyone else do that as a kid or was it just me? I often think about if 9 year old me could do what 39 year old me could do.. if the lifeguard would come save me. 🫣

“Free diving is not only a sport, it’s a way to understand who we are.” -Natalia Molchanova

Most of the free divers, I know are not formally trained, but the majority have similar mindsets. Their goals typically aren’t about going the deepest or holding their breath the longest… but more so about the quality of their experience. They push themselves deeper to learn more about who they are as a person not to be competitive. Diving isn’t always about about how deep or far we can go, but more so the adventure and interactions we can make along the way.

Our instructor Kyle is using a freedive line and buoy (the big 🟡) This equipment provides Kyle with a safe place to rest between dives without depleting his stamina. The line he’s using is an excellent tool to guide him to the surface and allows him to remain streamlined. Being underwater can be disorienting, but having the line to assist you can help you feel more relaxed which in turn can help you dive deeper. Freediving is all about relaxing your body and the mind. The safer and more relaxed you feel the easier that will be.

Down here it’s quiet, calm and peaceful. What better way to spend the following days after the hustle and bustle of Christmas than to chill out 15 ft below the surface right before New Years ?
