This site has been started to describe the joys of freediving to people who know little or nothing about this great sport. There will be several freedivers contributing to the blog to bring different view points to life.
I often get asked what the atraction to freediving is? For me it is the feeling I have when I dive, which is difficult to describe, but I hope you will get several answers to this question if you keep reading.
The next question I usually get is about the safety during freediving. We spend considerable time training safety procedures, instructing safety to new members of our local club FreediveToronto and discussing pool and open water safety. I hope that the coming entries will show you that freediving done correctly is a very safe sport.

I’m very interested in learning more about freediving. I haven’t been able to find out much about classes or clubs in my area (NY/NJ) — am I missing something?

You can check with: http://www.usfreediving.org/ who should be able to point you to training classes in the US.
We will be creating freediving classes here in Toronto next year and will make sure to post it here when we do.
You can also check out the club we belong to: http://www.freedivetoronto.com, which would welcome you to one of our trial nights
