DANCING IN THE OCEAN 🐠 🌊
⠀
I can finally say it: I’ve officially made the transformation from the pool to the ocean.
⠀
🪼 It took me one full month of freediving from shore everyday, swimming far out, fighting logistics, and figuring out how to film myself completely on my own — because that’s how I’ve always created my videos in the pool.
⠀
🪼 And this video? You have NO idea how many hours I spent fighting the strongest currents in South Florida, while the visibility could completely change within 30 minutes. 😅
⠀
But the hardest part? Buoyancy.
⠀
🪼In the pool, I know exactly how my body moves. In the ocean, everything is constantly moving. I had to teach myself to exhale more to stay on the bottom and engage my entire body differently just to hit the movements the way I wanted.
⠀
And then there are the neighbors… 🦈😂
⠀
🪼 I may be dance-blinded, but I still have to keep one eye on my surroundings because stingrays, sharks, tarpons and barracudas are constantly cruising around me...
