Yoga for Freediving
Enhance your breath control, flexibility, and mental focus
Yoga & Freediving: A Perfect Harmony
Yoga and freediving share a deep connection through breath awareness, mental focus, and body control. At Apnea Bohol, we integrate yoga practices into our freediving training to help you develop a stronger mind-body connection, improve your breath-holding capacity, and enhance your overall freediving experience.
Improved Breath Control
Yoga breathing techniques (pranayama) directly translate to better breath control underwater, increasing your breath-holding capacity and relaxation during dives.
Mental Focus
Meditation and mindfulness practices help you develop the mental clarity and focus needed for successful freediving, reducing anxiety and promoting calm.
Enhanced Flexibility
Increased flexibility from yoga practice improves your streamlining in the water, reduces energy consumption, and helps prevent injuries.
Yoga Practices for Freedivers
We incorporate various yoga styles and techniques specifically beneficial for freediving performance:
Pranayama (Breath Control)
Specific breathing exercises that increase lung capacity, improve breath control, and enhance oxygen efficiency. Techniques include Ujjayi (Ocean Breath), Kapalabhati (Skull Shining), and Nadi Shodhana (Alternate Nostril Breathing).
Hatha Yoga
Physical postures (asanas) that improve flexibility, strength, and body awareness. Focus on chest-opening poses, spinal flexibility, and core strength to enhance your freediving performance.
Meditation & Mindfulness
Practices to develop mental focus, emotional control, and present-moment awareness – crucial skills for managing the psychological aspects of freediving.
