For over ten years, I have been guiding students from around the world through an intimate and highly personalized approach to freediving. Each experience is entirely private and tailor-made, centered on breathing, mental mastery, and the exploration of the profound connection between breath, water, and the self.
Meditation lies at the heart of this practice. Here, performance is never the goal. There is no pressure to achieve a certain depth, hold a breath for a specific time, or reach a predefined level. What truly matters is the relationship between breath, mind, and water—and the journey inward that this connection reveals. I often describe it as a “return to the womb of the Sea,” a way of reconnecting with what is essential and experiencing a unique form of aquatic meditation.
Beyond my work as an instructor, I am also an underwater fine art photographer, with my work exhibited and collected internationally. This dual perspective—both educator and artist—informs every session I offer, whether it is a private coaching experience or an underwater photoshoot.
Based between the French Riviera and Greece, I travel worldwide to accompany and guide you wherever you are.
