ICE DIVING WORLD RECORD HOLDER

I’m a freediving instructor and a three-time world record holder in diving. I’ve taught breath-holding to both beginners and elite athletes, and I’ve seen the incredible impact that simple exercises can have: calmness, confidence, endurance, and the joy of being in the water.

I wrote this book because I believe the skill of breath-holding is for everyone – not just competitive divers. Training can be enjoyable, safe, and deeply relaxing.

If you want to learn how to breathe better, breath-holding is one of the simplest and most effective ways to start.
