FREEDIVING events

Identifying the source of the problems

In my many years of training, competing and coaching, I found that almost all challenges that we face in the water start in our own head.

I also found that the solutions to these problems are rarely found in more training. They are found in reflection and stepping back from the situation to gain perspective, and guidance and support to create a radical mindshift - away from fear-based thinking and towards trust and surrender.

That shift happens ALWAYS first in coaching outside of the water. And I can offer you this wherever you are, online.

effective coaching wherever you are

Online coaching to complement your in-water training is an essential part of any freediving programme. It addresses the most important part of effective training, that sadly no education programmes seem to offer - the magical mind-body connection, beyond technique and safety.

This is why my work with people online is so effective. It addresses the source of the issues that are holding you back, rather than pushing you into over-training or frustration.

If you feel called to my approach to freediving as a spiritual experience and a powerful path to awakening, I would be really excited to hear from you. Over the past two years I have been guiding a group of curious and courageous people in an online journey and I know it was a profound and moving experience for us all.

So don’t let a lack of water get in the way of your own steps towards waking up through my unique, intuitive and insightful group, one to one, and hybrid coaching programmes.

Get in touch

Thank you for your ongoing support, interest and trust in my work over the years. I would love to work with you online, if you are facing any challenges in the water. Simply drop me an email here and I’d love to chat further.

la palma life

And if you want to know more about my recent adventures and why I’m purely online for now.… well, my relocation to La Palma in the Canaries in June 2021, was rather more eventful than I planned. Surviving and living through a three-month long volcanic eruption three months after arriving, and now having to relocate again due to my new house being demolished for road works seems like life is presenting me sufficient challenges to keep me busy for a while.

But I love connecting with everyone around the world, and thanks to the blessing of Zoom and whatsapp, I’m supporting more people now than I was able to before! So don’t hesitate, get in touch!

More about online Freedive coaching

How can I help you with your freediving without us being in the water together?

Freediving is about relaxation as much as it is about technique, possibly even more so. Relaxation begins in the mind, becoming conscious of, and directing, our thoughts, rather than letting the ‘monkey-mind’ control and direct us. 

You’d be surprised just how much you can learn and improve when working from your computer at home! Here are some examples of themes I have worked on with clients so far… 

• mouthfill training from basic to advanced levels

• developing a regular meditation practice to improve mental control and relaxation

• helping you see beyond ego and beliefs so you can bring alive a flow-state in your diving

• nutritional advice to prepare for a training or competitive season

• pranayama to improve inhale depth and quality, breathhold and relaxation in a breathhold state

• lifestyle coaching to help you work through, clarify and resolve situations in your life so that your mind is clear and uncluttered when you come to the pool or ocean for training
