Leonid Kleshnin
Freediver, traveler, and champions' coach. Freediving since 2007. Maximum diving depth โ 88 meters.
Freediving for me is not just a sport, it's a lifestyle and a way to interact with the world. I started my journey in 2007, and water has been my element ever since. My personal record is a dive to 88 meters.
As a Master of Sport, medalist, and champion of Russian and international competitions, I deeply understand the physiology and psychology of breath-hold diving. Being an Instructor of the Russian Freediving Federation and a CMAS Spearfishing Instructor-Trainer, I have been passing on my knowledge since 2013.
Since 2010, I have been organizing freediving trips and training camps worldwide. I have trained hundreds of students and visited 42 countries, diving in the most beautiful and extreme spots on the planet.
In Phuket, I share my experience, helping students of any level: from overcoming the fear of depth to training professional freediving athletes. Many of my students have long since become freediving instructors themselves.
