Scuba Travel's ambassador Annelie Pompe traveled in Oct/Nov 2016 to freedive in Bali. There she was to hold a course on freediving. Here comes a travelogue from Bali with photos from one of the participants; Benjamin Patala.
"When we landed in Bali we were struck by the lovely warmth and the pleasant atmosphere. The bumpy drive through the mountains kept us awake until we arrived at the Tripst, where we were greeted by the hospitable staff.
Anticipation was high on the first day of the course which started with Yoga by the pool at 08.00:XNUMX. A small group of people who had never met before would now teach us to freedive in Bali. We looked at each other curiously and smiled as the yoga got underway. We enjoyed the heat and the sea roaring a stone's throw from us.
After finishing the session we went to enjoy our breakfast. I can truly say that that breakfast was the best in a long time for us who are used to breakfast before activity.
Eat, live, breathe like a freediver
The following days we learned to eat, live and breathe like freedivers. We started the day with yoga focusing on freediving and breathing, followed by breakfast. When we had finished resting, it was time for breathing technique, fin technique and many other techniques that a freediver must master.
