There are a number of different freediving disciplines which are performed without fins including Dynamic No Fins (DNF) and Constant Weight No Fins (CNF). Constant Weight No Fins is considered to be one of the most physically demanding disciplines. We focused on this discipline during the Wave 2 course and for many students it is the most difficult but at the same time the most interesting part of the course. Dynamic No Fins (DNF) is a horizontal underwater swim without fins. The stroke most commonly used is a variation of the breaststroke. Learning a good breaststroke technique improves your streamlining, endurance, and strength as it uses your whole body. It is one of the more tiring and physically demanding styles but by establishing a good technique, you add to the variety of swimming styles available to you which is very beneficial for freediving. This in turn increases your options for training. It is important to establish variety in your training and you improve significantly in freediving by using different training methods and practicing different styles, both with and without fins. How well you feel the water and support yourself in it, is also an important and fundamental part of swimming. By developing your No Fins technique, you engage more of your muscle groups and you naturally develop a better feel and sense of the water. The No Fins technique not only develops and builds your confidence and comfort in the water, but it also improves and fine-tunes your coordination. Finally, learning this technique gives you complete freedom and flexibility to freedive anywhere in the world without the need for fins, simply with just a mask. How is your relationship with No Fins freediving? Do you like it and perform regularly? What was the most difficult part of technique for you? #freediving #freedive #freedivingtraining #freedivetraining #nofins #nofinsfreediving #freedivingcourse #freedivingcourses #freedivecourse #freedivecourses #freedivevideo #freedivingvideo #molchanovs #molchanovsfreediving #molchanovsmovement #molchanovsfamily #freedivebali #freedivingbali (at Nusa Penida / Penida Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/CTv3O6-BNIW/?utm_medium=tumblr

Due to lockdown we can not travel around Indonesia. But fortunately we can still dive here at Nusa Penida. Hopefully, restrictions will be finished soon and we can travel again. This short video is from our last freedive trip to Bira, South Sulawesi.

Morning stretching and breathing exercises before the open water session. You can check full version in our IGTV. But it is in Russian language because we have only Russian speakers in the school at the moment 😉 We have new wave of lockdown in Bali. To come to Nusa Penida from Bali now you need KITAS, letter from local banjar telling you are living in Penida and the certificate about vaccination. Fortunately, we have a few long-term master students who are staying here with us already. So we keep training together and enjoying this strange crazy time🏊 Keep training and stay safe, freedivers🙏 (at Nusa Penida / Penida Island) https://www.instagram.com/p/CRDoafZBJjc/?utm_medium=tumblr

Some drone photos from Taka Makassar island in Komodo National Park. We returned back from our last trip to Komodo just 2 days ago. On this trip we explored some new places at the south of Rinca island but also visited our favorite places. On these photos is one of our favorite and well-known place in Komodo - the island of Taka Makassar. It is located near Manta Point. It looks great not only from the drone but also has rich reefs full of life around the island. We spent our last night at this place before going back to Labuan Bajo. Our next trip to Komodo will be in start of July. If you are interested to join feel free to send us a direct message. #freedive #freediving #freedivers #freedivekomodo #freedivingkomodo #freediveindonesia #freedivingindonesia #komodo #komodonationalpark #komodotour #komodotrip #takamakassar #explorekomodo #dronephotography #dronephoto #aerialphotography #aerialphoto #djindonesia #dji (at Taka Makassar) https://www.instagram.com/p/CPa9741hiL0/?utm_medium=tumblr

Do you still have doubts about your freediving abilities? Do you still think freediving is not for everyone? Look at this 3.5 years old mermaid Vera. She is diving up to 4-5 meters deep together with mom @happy_dondurma while drifting in the strong current at the dive site called "Golden Passage" located in Komodo National Park. She loves it and she is absolutely happy while doing it. If she can do it, can you? #freediving #freedive #freedivers #freedivingisforeveryone #baby #babyswimming #babyfreediver #babyfreediving #komodo #komodonationalpark #underwater #underwatervideo #freedivevideo #freedivingvideo #freedivekomodo #freedivingkomodo #freediveindonesia #freedivingindonesia #mermaid (at Komodo National Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/CORwpXShZAF/?igshid=s8116azqovdr
