Freediving training course for 20m.

I am a beginner in this sport, having started diving one month and a half before and doing less than one dive per week. So this is my 7th or 8th attempt to free dive. Here I am reaching the 20m depth. The total duration of this attempt was 1:20' and took place in Vouliagmeni, Greece on 13 of August 2019.
The course's instructor was Dimitris Koumoulos (www.onebreath.gr), from whom finally I got this lovely video as proof to remind me that, yes man....! It wasn't a dream! It was really me down there! And definitely, I want to go there again!

good job! equalizing is the hardest part..looks like you mastered it well.

[@waderosenthal9286]

Very nice! I held my breath with you! I can’t wait to start a course myself.

[@Christiana_M]

So nice to hear that you are inspired! Let me know your progress!

[@baz3184]

Me too. Someone booked me in and I can't pull out now.

[@kyk2454]

This girl makes it look so easy

[@TheJoeyboots]

FANTASTIC well done! 😁👍 You are one of very few who can do that, quite an achievement. Respect.

[@Christiana_M]

Thank you for your kind words! To be true i train among very good athletes that are champions in world competitions and i swear i have a lot of work to do to reach their depths, -70, -100, -120! Believe it or not, i m just in the start of this journey! 🤗

[@oceancrossingutopia]

You look sooo comfortable! Nice job.

[@Christiana_M]

Thank youuu! 🙏👌☮️💙

[@mickspriggs7894]

Wow! I'm jealous! I just finished my freediving course and can just make it to 10m, haha.

[@Christiana_M]

That's how we all started! Keep practicing and all is coming!

[@ryanhorlyck]

awesome. well done. nice and relaxed. :)

[@SindreEide93]

7 or 8 times in the wate and already hitting the 20m mark? That's damn good.

[@kenshinhimura1765]

the weather is good, no current.. but still need to wear a safety lanyard while diving those depths.. dive safely guys

[@willcd]

What is that?

[@isaackaye244]

I agree but she did have someone diving with her and it’s not to incredibly deep

[@awesomeagnihotrisvlog]

@@willcd a small rope which keeps the diver connected to the main line

Congrats...

[@abdullahmarei-karate3225]

Great.. Very relaxed

Υπεροχη.

[@tom5379]

And I can't even go 10 seconds underwater

[@dive4josvic]

Longer fins.. deeper dive

[@Christiana_M]

true!

[@fishooting3570]

👌👍

[@broderen6234]

you would easylie made 30m on such a dive!

[@Christiana_M]

Actually 30m came really soon after! Thank you for commenting!

[@D.com.D]

Do you have to go slow on the way up to avoid the bends or does that not apply here ?

[@DisciplesHyper]

I am no expert but to my small amount of research on youtube. Yes you ha e to go up slowly to avoid a black out. I hope this helps. I free dive at springs in Florida but I can't go more than about 25 feet down.

[@kayakvideos123]

No bends only applies when you breathe compressed air at depth. She can come up as fast as she likes

[@D.com.D]

@@DisciplesHyper I have just started free diving so I’m quite new to it. How can I get deeper without hurting myself? Thank you

[@Christiana_M]

@@D.com.D Find a diving center in your area and take freediving lessons. Never freedive alone 🙏

[@Christiana_M]

In freediving there's no need to slow down or pause for a while as you ascend

[@stoner4life156]

What is the clicking noise that u hear under water??

[@montiro8999]

[@Definitely_Someone]

Κάποιες φορές μου είναι δύσκολο να κάνω equalize, όσο και να προσπαθώ δεν κάνουν ποπ τα αυτιά 🥲

[@Christiana_M]

Κάνε ένα τσεκ σε ΩΡΛ σε πρώτη φάση. Με ένα μηχάνημα βλέπει αν υπάρχει κάποιο πρόβλημα

[@Definitely_Someone]

@@Christiana_M Ευχαριστω!

[@user-lk1li2kn4y]

Что за место?

[@tommuller708]

How old are you on this Video?

[@Christiana_M]

Never ask a woman her age. To partially answer to your question I m over 40 and below 50. Aging does not stop you from freediving anyway!

[@victorgonzalez9619]

No tienes que descompresiónar con la mano hazlo solo con la boca apretando como si fuera a pujar cuando vallas al baño es mejor por que consume menos oxígeno y no mueva tanto las partes del cuerpo (entrénalo en seco fuera del agua pregúntaselo a un pescador viejo suerte 👍

What about not having an oxygen tank makes it fake?

[@bizzarz6302]

@@arjunsaha8896 There are people that dive 100m+ with just one breath. It's definitely not fake.

[@RUSHMP4]

yeah its fake, everybody knows you cant breath underwater...

[@Christiana_M]

@@bizzarz6302 Thank you!

[@danirobinsonhair]

Seeing you train is giving me the confidence to start diving too. Just wish I had friends to come with me but here’s to making friends in ocean! 🌊🤿🐠

[@Christiana_M]

All you need to start diving is to find a freediving instructor that can show you the technique and the safety principles. Just take a course 🙏 And all is coming!
