Apnea
A dive into the Blue with a single breath ... to discover, discover yourself and remain breathless every time.
Freediving was the first form of diving practiced by man and still represents the most instinctive way to go underwater ...
But to say it in the words of our master:
"From 0 to 100 meters and then further down, plunging into the abyss: the pulsations slow down, the body vanishes, every sensation floats in new forms. Only the soul remains. A long plunge into the soul that seems to absorb the soul. universe"
