apparatus and then return to the surface fully conscious however this is certainly not as straightforward as it sounds the top men can dive an expanse of two hundred meters and incredibly spend over eleven minutes underwater taking a breath and russia after seeing this piece is totally feasible with the crate training first of all it's a metro train. trip and her training. thank you. so much. and says essentially that we have to be strong. to tell you choose miss points right see you which helps home. remarks her body i meet her breathing techniques while diving however this meditation discipline also has other benefits when she is i'm taking a dive here tonight when we test certain things in mind and have. any

thoughts that i have and have them tell us that. she's loved being in the ocean she was a child and even represented the soviet union in her teens to swim and however she had a change of career and took up free diving in her early twenty's and the best and used to be a swimmer and i love whiter. my very very child. and that i was but that for once when i was coming back to. moscow almost a fairy treat. sorry i lost my way back home i think. at that moment i saw a very beautiful woman retiring about the first trash and maybe you know what that means that pioneer of our country and i really fell in love. and i thought well

maybe it's that i may get there and. now she's turned her attention to teach me a few chances to be in pisco that even you swimming complex in the russian capital thirty six year old saying is it's a sport anyone can take up every person can read that i have ten feet away from them they cannot die first they start playing diving and then they start intending swimming fast aside from teaching natalia is still actively trying to break new barriers in the sport she swam naked in subzero answered walters with palooka whales but she specializes in perhaps the whole of history diving discipline which involves trying to diet as deep as possible without the aid of flippers or groups to tell you i used to hold the women's world. call to fifty centimeters however she doesn't have any interest in trying to save new gold things in fact the russian is aiming to tackle one of the country's greatest lakes lake by col this is my call.

to every ship here on. one hand my. a. few. feet back on the other hand trick or intends to repay me thank you very well. it's a fascinating sports where one obviously has to be physically feeds however as natalia points out the mental side plays just as an important role she may not be interested in trying to break new world records anymore however of plenty of boundaries she's trying to break down as she tries to raise awareness of environmental issues through her sports richard donte moscow one that has a list for we have this hour i'll be back in four hours time with more but now it's the world weather here in twenty four hour.
