Yeah that was also my first expression when I heard about freediving. "Is it diving for free?"
Well, apparently, in the world of underwater, there are a lot of form of underwater sports, one of it I have learned and enjoyed so much, SCUBADIVING. Now, when I knew that there was another form of diving, I was not easily attracted to it. The more I researched through interviews (with a freediving instructor), reading blogs, websites & watching youtube, I finally decided to give it a try.
So, after 7 months of researching, I join a freediving trip to Pramuka Island, continued with practice (pool sessions) in Kridaloka Senayan Swimming Pool, I began to fall in love with it.I join the freediving community LET'S FREEDIVE to learn about the technicality of freediving.
So what is freediving?
Menurut Jason Hakim, ketua dan pendiri Let's Freedive Community, Freediving adalah penyelaman dengan satu tarikan nafas, dalam artian tanpa menggunakan alat bantu pernafasan apapun dan menyelam hanya dengan mengandalkan ketenangan dan ketahanan tubuh di dalam tekanan air laut, dan menikmati alam bawah laut sambil menahan napas.

According to aidainternational.org, Freediving is the most natural and serene way to explore the depths of the oceans with minimal impact. It is also the ultimate way to free yourself and spend more time enjoying the beauty and silence of the sea.
Well, I guess, you really have to try yourself to find that out.
