“Freediving is about feelings. Whether it’s the euphoria that comes from weightlessness, or the beauty of the underwater world, we dive for the moments of joy that come from a deeper understanding of our internal experience. We dive for the pleasure of retreat, where inner calm and peace dissolve our racing thoughts. Freediving offers us happiness from nothing more than a single breath of air.”

– Natalia Molchanova

 

Freediving is diving underwater on one breath of air.

Historically, people freedived for their livelihoods. In modern times, more and more people freedive for sport, using their skills to explore and enjoy underwater environments or train to push their physical and mental limits in competition.

Whatever the reason for freediving, it brings about a certain enjoyment that many other sports do not.
