Profile:

Born in Tokyo in 1984. I have loved water since I was little and was in the swimming club when I was a student.

I also have a strong interest in food, and I majored in nutrition at a university. After graduating, I worked in the pharmaceutical industry for a while.

What is more, I have lived in Australia, Hong Kong, and Indonesia., the experience greatly changed my personality and sense of values.

​

After returning to Tokyo, I continued traveling in various countries, mainly in Asia and took my first freediving course in the Philippines in 2017. I immediately fell in love and was fascinated by the world of the ocean where silence and peace spread. Since then, I have trained in freediving in Asia and qualified as an instructor in Bali in 2019.

​

I was originally planning to teach freediving in Bali in 2020, but the plan was abandoned due to COVID-19. While traveling in Japan in search of the ocean, I landed on Amami Oshima for the first time. The beauty of the ocean and the comfort of living on the island matched my ideal life, so I decided to move here.

Now, I am based in Amami Oshima, I support connecting people and the ocean through freediving here.

 

Message:

For us humans, the “ocean” is an irreplaceable existence.

The “ocean” supports a lot of life on the earth.

​

I want to tell the splendor and preciousness of the ocean.

I want to share the peace of being surrounded by the ocean and the beauty of the underwater world.

​

That is why I started AMAMI Freediving.

I will support you in learning how to dive safely and enjoyably and have a wonderful underwater experience.

Look forward to diving with you all!
