Beginners Yoga for Freediving Intro
Starting to freedive can be one of the most exciting and daunting things you will ever do. Knowing you are being guided by an expert who is as invested in your happiness and wellbeing as you are, can make a world of difference.
Join Sara Campbell, Kundallni Yoga teacher and deepest woman in the world, on an exploration of freediving as a spiritual path and practice. Breathhold is the key to unlocking our subconscious hopes and fears. With the ocean as your teacher and world champion Sara as your guide, this is a powerful combination to both learn the techniques of freediivng, and take your first steps into the magical world of underwater soul exploration.
More about this course
Freediving is a metaphor for life; the way you approach your breathholds and deep diving is a direct reflection on some of your deeper subconscious patterns. Working with the water enables us to recognise, work with and release these patterns far more quickly, leading to expansion and personal freedom, It is a magical journey. If you are fascinated by pranayama practice and want to go deeper, want to understand more about yourself, the ocean and your potential, or simply want to learn how to relax in the ocean and connect with the wonder of our underwater world, join me for this truly unique and breathtaking experience.
Who is it for?
This programme is open to men and women from all backgrounds, all ages, and with all levels of yoga experience (including none at all!). Basic confidence in and around the water is helpful, but not essential.
Freediving is for everyone. Some come to freediving because of their love of water and the fun that they experience in and around it, others come to resolve past fears and traumas, water-related or otherwise, that they no longer want to live with. Approaching freediving through the modality and technology of yoga and meditation enables everyone to discover deeper truths about themselves as they progress at their own rate. There is no success of failure in the ocean, only learning and expansion.
Continuing your journey
The key to integrating this approach to freediving into your own training is to develop a sustained meditation and yoga practice. Sara’s new online training Yoga for Freediving training programmes enable you to continue to build your mental strength and inner confidence around your regular training routines.
