Pim was my coach and one of the greatest teachers for almost 2 years. Providing a safe, stable environment for my training without false goals, pressure, with adequate loads for my tasks. It was an invaluable time for developing athletic form, expanding mental boundaries, developing resilience, my own educational process in freediving as a teacher. With great gratitude and respect for all the experience and valuable knowledge, for my dive through the Arch with professional and safe organization, for my achievement reaching 90 meters in depth, and for everything I know about freediving after our work together.
