Last week I was invited to speak at the Polish Diving Conference in Zakrzówek, Cracow on September 27th, 2014.

I really appreciated the invitation and prepared a half-hour long presentation about the training of body and mind in freediving.

As an introduction I arranged a screening of the documentary movie ” On the other side of the mirror” by Michał Braum and the ImagePro studio. This documentary features my adventure with freediving and if you haven’t seen it yet, here’s a link to see it

As a side note, the movie was chosen for the Seattle Polish Film Festival, that is being held in October 10 – 19th, 2014 in Seattle, USA. The movie will be shown on October 15th, 2014.

It warms my heart to hear such news and to see that our hard work – mine at training, and Michał’s at filmmaking – is recognized globally. I hope people will learn more about freediving and won’t be as scared or prejudiced against this sport as it often happens now.

Coming back to the Congress. It was great to meet my friends and fellow Polish divers to share experiences and plans for the future. The event at the Zakrzówek Diving Base was also a great feast for all diving fans with stalls of diving equipment sellers. They provided everything for adults as well as kids!
