Essex freediver

[yoda turtle]

Hi out there, am new to free diving and am wondering if there is anyone in essex I can do some training with or if there is a club in the area.
am off to dahab (egypt) in june to do a freedive course with desert divers,I want to get some diving in before then.basically I am learning everything from umberto pelizzari's manual of free diving and practicing in a pool. it would be real cool to know some one else in essex who is blown away by this great sport.

Yey Yoda, I live in Kent know but i'm over in Essex at least once a week. (basildon) to see my parents.

When i lived in Essex is was hard to even find a pool to train in due to restrictions on the use of mono fins etc.

Good bit of advice is phone around the pools and find out if they have a diving club that uses it and on what night, go down there and speak directly with the diving officer, thats what i did in Kent and i can train in two different pools in the evening and have someone qualified to watch me as well and they dont even charge me!

Give it a go!
Chris
