Unlock the Art of Breath and Depth: Elite Freediving & Mindfulness
True mastery of the ocean requires more than physical endurance; it demands absolute mental stillness. Whether you are an athlete looking to optimize your physiology or a high-performer seeking the ultimate flow state, my instruction provides a bespoke pathway to comfort, confidence, and profound presence beneath the surface.
As a PFI-certified instructor and 500-hour yoga teacher, I specialize in the intersection of breathwork and aquatic performance. I don't just teach you how to hold your breath; I teach you how to master your nervous system, allowing you to operate with grace in environments where most simply struggle to survive.
Why train with me?
Elite Technical Rigor: My training is rooted in PFI protocols—the gold standard for safety and performance in the freediving world.
Integrated Breathwork: Leveraging 500 hours of professional yoga training, I curate specialized breathwork sequences that physically and mentally prepare you for depth.
The Art of Flow: With a background in fingerstyle guitar, I bring a unique, technical, and artistic discipline to instruction. I understand that the mastery of any craft—whether on the guitar or in the water—comes down to precision, relaxation, and focus.
Bespoke, Private Instruction: I offer a premium, concierge approach. No crowded courses, no generic timelines. Your instruction is tailored to your specific goals and schedule.
Curated Group Intensives: Beyond private coaching, I host elite, small-cap workshops designed for high-achievers. These sessions offer a unique collaborative environment where you can master the technicalities of breath-hold and safety protocols alongside a cohort of driven, like-minded peers. It is the perfect intersection of community, accountability, and collective discovery in San Diego's premier diving locations.
Experience the transformation. Your potential underwater is vast, often limited only by the stories we tell ourselves about what is possible. If you are ready to elevate your capabilities, contact me to discuss a private consultation or a curated training program.

The Physiology of the Deep: A Neuro-Somatic Approach to Freediving
Unlock the full potential of your respiratory system with Yoga for Freedivers, an elite online curriculum designed to bridge the gap between ancient yogic discipline and modern hyper-apnea science.
While many view yoga as a supplementary stretch, we treat it as Respiratory Strength & Conditioning. This course is specifically engineered for the individual who demands more from their anatomy. Whether you are navigating the pressure of a 30-meter dive in the kelp forests or the high-stakes environment of a boardroom, the ability to command your carbon dioxide tolerance and nervous system is the ultimate competitive advantage.
The Curriculum Focuses On:
Pulmonary Elasticity & Compliance: Specialized drills to improve thoracic mobility, allowing for greater air intake and comfort at residual volume (depth).
Autonomic Mastery: Transitioning from the sympathetic (fight/flight) to the parasympathetic (rest/digest) state on command to lower your O2 consumption.
Neuro-Stasis: Cultivating the "Stillness of Mind" required to bypass the urge to breathe, transforming a survival response into a meditative flow.
Pathological Recovery: Targeted protocols for enhancing respiratory health, addressing asthma, air quality sensitivities, and chronic stress-induced shallow breathing.
Your Instructor: As a PFI-certified instructor and 500-hour Yoga Educator, I provide a sophisticated synthesis of athletic conditioning and mental fortitude. My methodology doesn't just "manage stress"—it reallocates your internal resources for maximum efficiency and Self-Realization.

Well, yes and no. Let me explain…
Yes, because the benefits of apnea, breath, movement, nature, and connection with ourselves and with our environment far exceed just being able to hit a certain depth. Personal transformation is achievable and for those interested, you can read My Story. In order to dive in comfort we must be able to free ourselves from physical pain, and emotional/mental instability like fear, doubt, depression, and anxiety. Yoga is a comprehensive system to do just that: to balance our whole being. In this way, we learn to live and dive in freedom from dukha, or suffering. In the 'Freediver Plus' Course learn to freedive in a week-long freediving and yoga integration course. Achieve new depths in the sea and in yourself.
No, because available to anyone anytime is high-quality freediving education and coaching through the Performance Freediving International education system. The PFI Freediver Course is perfect or anyone looking to improve their underwater confidence, and competence while exploring underwater potential. For certified divers looking to improve, consider a group or private coaching session. For anyone wishing just to be safer in the water, the PFI Safe Buddy is just right for you. -
The way to get the most out of these videos, and really transform your thoracic flexibility, is practice. But practice is boring if it is monotonous which is why all 9 classes in this series are in order of difficulty/flexibility level. That way, you always have something that can keep your body guessing, and your mind engaged, wanting to come back
