    Don’t look at free diving it as something that you have to pass, treat it as an experience and enjoy every moment of it. Though, I haven’t been free diving but have talked to some diving instructors over the years and the key is to enjoy, don’t overthink. 😅 You cannot fail at something that you do as a recreation. 😊 Also, the diving community are one of the cool and most relax people I know of.. unlike in the corporate world, where some are very toxic individuals. 😂 Someone once said to me in my job once, “You weren’t supposed to be here!” I just looked at her, with a blank expression on my face and a wry smile. Thinking to myself, so you just need me to sign the job offer and then submit my requirements?! Because that’s what the specific instructions were, to send my signed job offer and other clearances! Lol! Some people who had something to do with it were people from my first job in manila! 🥴😏 Plan uncovered! What am I a ghost employee then? So who’ll be receiving my salary if I wasn’t supposed to be here?! Lol! You cannot believe how people can be so GREEDY and VILE in the corporate world. But, their karma will be coming for them. Whatever they took that weren’t theirs, they’ll loose 10x of it, including interest. If there’s anything I am thankful for is that I am out of their reach. Those people are scum! I know that they’ve been tracking me through my phone throughout these years! Real scumbags! I now know who those people are!

    I like to dive with a nose clip. Much more relaxing to not use my hand and it prevents overpressure as it doesn't lock the nose 100%. I would also recommend Frenzel instead of blowing into your nose.

      Hi @dariusoutdoors, thanks for the comment. Just an update, this video was created several years ago. I've successfully become an instructor and am now dabbling in competitions. :) It's crazy looking back on this video and seeing how much I've grown as a freediver! Hopefully it inspires others to keep at it when they have equalization issues or other road blocks in their freediving journey.

I'm now a freediving instructor and competing in the CMAS World Championships for Team USA. I'm definitely not one of the deepest divers, but a 50 meter dive is super comfortable now! I hope the update is inspiring for others who think that freediving isn't for them because they're encountering an obstacle in freediving. Practice, mentorship, and patience is key. :)

    Saw you on American Ninja Warrior tonight (repeat) missed it earlier in the week ! But saw you and it looked like you had fun so I googled you and found out you have a RUclips channel. You are quite an interesting personality ? You went to what ? 8 yrs of Pharmacy School to become a Mermaid ? / Freediver / Instructor / Fire Performer ? And now N.W.I. T. Watched what RUclips videos I could find and they are all quite good. Why did stop doing videos a few yrs ago ? I guess you already had too much shit on your platter ? I gave a 👍 and subscribed and hope you pick the camera again ! You are entertaining, gorgeous and fun to watch. Look forward to a notification. ✌️💙🎵 From STL MO

      Hi Dave, thanks for the message! I am sitting on mountains of content haha! I took a temporary break from content creation when the pandemic hit to be a full time pharmacist when I was needed. Now that things are going back to normal, I'm back to freediving, performing, teaching freediving, and doing pharmacy (very part time). I'm currently training for the CMAS Freediving World Championships and hope to post more freediving and travel content when I'm done with the competition. :)

    Why train to level of freediving instructor not done more than 10m simple equalization? To be blunt this can be learned without paying any instructor but the instruction divrcenter industry sell the idea that you will make career in making money on teaching freediving. Hell there is few basic bicycle training centers..... Should be the same in freediving. I thing different physiology and ear canals and ability to click eartubes open or use toung plate to equalize is just not training and knowing those muscles control. I equalize ears withoutmoving jaw and no pinching of nose. This is maybe what should be taught and coached not found out reaching 4 to 6 meters.

    • @thesailingsiren

      Hi and thank you for your comment! I understand what you are saying, but several years later I'm very thankful for the decision to take the course. Since the filming of this vlog several years ago, I've worked underwater stunts in a major motion picture, become a commentator and athlete in freediving competitions, and all of the issues I had when I was first starting out, I am now able to help my own students through as an instructor. :)

  • @CS-eh8eo

    so...what does a freediving course give you qualification for... sure I can just go out to the sea and start freediving myself, whats the point in this certificate?

    • @thesailingsiren
      @thesailingsiren Год назад

      Hey and thanks for the question! As someone who has taken a course and moved into the more professional side of freediving, I'm always going to advocate for the safety aspects of learning so other people can continue to enjoy the sport. When you hear of a freediving accident or death on mainstream media, a deeper look will often reveal that the person was diving alone, didn't have the proper training, and didn't have proper safety protocols in place. When you are just getting into the sport, you don't know what you don't know and can miss blind spots in a DIY freediving education. Freediving courses aren't just about holding your breath longer and diving deeper. They help you become a well rounded freediver and a competent safety for your dive buddies. Hope this answers your question!

I was fortunate to make it through a lot of the beginner freediver challenges, and I'm now an instructor that often teaches and trains in colder water. I teach students to flood their hood as part of the pre-dive protocol if they decide not to put a hole in their hoods. :)
