Newly arrived in London - Looking for training buddies

[Paul-Adrien Bonnet]

Hi there everyone,

I recently moved to London in Kennington and would love to meet freedivers for a drink, a training session or a dive. Twice a week I swim at the Camberwell public swimming pool (25m).

I've been introduced to freediving last summer and have been training once a week for the last six months.
If anyone lives/trains around Camberwell, please tell me!

my number: 077 8319 3805

hope to hear from you soon
Paul

hi Mate
do they allow F/D gear in the pool ? be well surprised if they do

 

[Paul-Adrien Bonnet]

heya Joe,
no I was asked not to use my fins...
What i do is practice endurance and breathhold during simple swimming sessions
I've just looked up apnea revolution's website, and they offer monday sessions at Victoria, that's where we'd be able to take all the gear...

or 8 pm every Thursday at Richmond for £10 a go
must be AIDA sert. or go through intro course i think

 

[Paul-Adrien Bonnet]

you're right! I was thinking of trying out at Victoria first since I live in kennington and it's a quicker bike ride than to go to Richmond.
I'll have a look at that. Where do you go?

 

[joeXXX]

but need to get a buddy to keep givin me a kick up the bum
