What is freediving?
Freediving is the art of diving underwater on a single breath—without the use of any equipment. It’s one of the most natural ways to explore the ocean, relying purely on your body, your breath, and your ability to stay calm and relaxed.
Unlike scuba diving, where you carry tanks and gear, freediving is minimal. When you take a single breath and dive into the ocean, you feel one with it. It is one of the most intense and peaceful experiences. It helps us establish a special

About Me
I have always been passionate about swimming in the open waters since childhood. In more recent years as part of the Chennai Trekking Club I organised open water swimming sessions with beginners for many years. We also organised many Triathlons and a Swimathon with thousands of participants from across India. A few years ago I swam 11km in the sea from Besant Nagar to Marina.
Started my journey below the water free diving in the sea and quarries South of Chennai. I am a certified Scuba rescue diver and have done many independent dives in Philippines, Indonesia and Thailand.
Today, my goal is simple—to share this passion with others. Through this freediving course, I want to introduce fellow ocean enthusiasts to the magic of exploring beneath the surface, to help them feel more connected to the ocean, and to experience a kind of freedom that only freediving can offer.
