Freediving in the Philippines
Wolfgang is freediving since more than 12 years all over the world and he is giving his knowledge to students since more than 4 years. With special training and preparation nearly everybody can learn how to hold his breath. And it doesn't take long. 2-3 days and you will be able to hold your breath for 2-3 minutes. Some people even can hold their breath for 4 minutes after short training.
Freediving is a technique used with various aquatic activities. While in general all aquatic activities that include breath-hold diving might be classified as a part of freediving, some sports are more accepted than others.
Freediving is also an intriguing recreational sport, celebrated as a relaxing, liberating, and unique experience. Many snorkelers may technically be freediving if they perform any sort of breath hold diving-it is important to stress the importance of training and supervision when making this association.
Like other water sports, freediving is associated with therapeutic properties. The experience of freedom in an underwater environment makes freediving somewhat of a personal and spiritual journey for many. Yoga is used by many practitioners to increase focus, breath, and overall performance.
