Tribute to the life of Natalia Molchanova - get a glimpse into the life of freediving legend Natalia Molchanova.
Natalia was a freediving world champion and the holder of 42 world records. She remains the world’s most titled freediver ever, achieving world records in all freediving disciplines. She won a total of 22 individual gold medals and two team gold medals at Freediving World Championships during her career. On 25th September 2009, she became the first woman ever to pass 100m (328ft) of depth on a breath-hold in Constant Weight with a freedive to 101m (331ft).
Natalia was the president of the Freediving Federation. She designed and established its educational program from beginner to instructor level. Natalia shared her passion and knowledge of freediving both through her courses and with her university students in Moscow. Today, thousands of freedivers have been trained by the Freediving Federation and several hundred instructors share Natalia’s knowledge with a new generation of freedivers. In 2015, the presidency was passed to her son Alexey Molchanov, also a freediving world champion and record holder.
Natalia led research in freediver physiology and was interested in relaxation techniques
and improving freediving performance and safety. She was the author of many articles,
books, and educational materials on freediving. Much of her work has been translated
into English. Her love and passion for the sea are also reflected in poems she wrote and
a short artistic movie she created, for which she received a number of festival awards.
Natalia’s life was about freediving.
Natalia’s aspiration was always to strive for safe and efficient freediving, and to achieve
this through the provision of education and training, and producing the world’s best freediving
equipment. Everything we create now is based on this philosophy and strategy,
but with the latest developments in education, technology and scientific research.
We are inspired and honored to have had Natalia as our founder. Without her, the
Molchanovs freediving movement would not exist today.
Natalia Molchanova, the greatest freediver who ever lived, created a freediving education system to take a beginner, step by step, to an elite freediver. Find out more about the Molchanovs Education system Online: molchanovs.com...
