Freediving has eight disciplines,
from Static Apnea, holding one's breath for as long as possible,
to No Limits, where the diver descends using a weighted
sled and ascends using an airbag.
Freediving can be extremely
dangerous and it is vital never to practice without an experienced
person with you at all times. Freediving can also be lots
of fun, however, and by learning how to freedive safely
you can enjoy being under the water, no matter how deep
you go.
Freediving does not have
to be about pushing your limits of depth or time. By learning
the breathing and relaxation skills associated with freediving
you can learn how to use less air whilst scuba diving, dive
down and take pictures of underwater life, or even learn
how to spear fish in the most ethically and environmentally
sound method of fishing for food!
