Episode 51 Taking a Deep Dive into Mindset, Breath, and Freediving with Kirill Popov
Kirill, Owner of Freedive Nusa has been freediving since 2011. Since January 2013, he became an SSI Freediving Instructor. From this point on, he organized and conducted many freediving courses and group trips for freedivers in Russia, Thailand, the Philippines, Indonesia, Turkey, and Egypt. Since 2016, he has been living and teaching diving on Nusa Penida and organizing adventures for freedivers around Indonesia. In April 2018, he became an SSI Freediving Instructor Trainer. In November 2019, he became an Instructor Trainer in the Molchanovs Freediving Educational System. Brian Mackenzie of Shift Adapt often says if you want to learn about breathing then go to freediver. So I did just that and all Kirill's experience in Freediving, Yoga, and Meditation took a deep dive into the skills necessary to become an advanced Freediver. Unfortunately, I did not get to train for freediving with Kirill due to blowing my ear and not having enough time, however, I will head back to learn more. Many of these skills are transferable to everyday life and from having this conversation and spending a short time at Freedive Nusa doing Yoga and some breathwork, I have learnt techniques to add to my online programs. If you would like to learn how to freedive you can begin at any level. I highly recommend heading to Nusa Penida and learning from Kirill for what he has created on that beautiful island is an adventure everyone should get to experience.
