Long overdue lessons..

So it turns out snorkelling is a lot more complicated than it seems when you start going deeper. For such a free, natural and intuitive sport, it's surprisingly easy to injure yourself, as we discovered the hard way last year!

Fusion, a freediving and yoga school in Amed, seemed like the perfect place to learn a bit about how to freedive safely, so we decided to do a course. The guys slotted us straight onto their Level 2 programme after seeing us in the water yesterday, and after a prolonged theory session (too much chat!) we were happily finning down to 30m WITHOUT hyperventilating - a pivotal change for the better!

This is us practising safety techniques - the "meet midway during ascent and look into my eyes" move!
