Usually my dives on one breath are not deeper than 15 meter. 

I encounter most of the big marine life that I photograph in that region.

There have been cases however that I regretted to not be able to dive deeper comfortably and safely.

That's why I decided to attend the the deep dive specialty of Enker freedive experts.

Recently we visited Nemo33, one of the deepest pools in the world, for some freedive training.

Nemo33 is located in Brussels, Belgium. The pool consists of different segments. One of the segments in the pool is 10 meters deep. The shallower part of the pool has a depth of about 5 meter. The deepest section of the pool is a whopping 33 meters deep, for which Nemo was named the deepest pool in Europe.

In an attempt to become more comfortable freedivers Sandy and I signed up for a freediving course with Enker Freediving. Understanding what factors affect the duration of our stay underwater and learning (how) to listen to the signals our body gives us during freediving, should enable us to extend our stay down below on one breath safely.
