Harry Chamas - Head Coach
What makes us special...
I know that you can feel in complete peace underwater.
I know this because I have felt it, and have coached many other people into this experience.
​
Our primary objective here at Freedive Passion La Ventana is to support and guide people along that path.
​
We want you to feel the pure joy of diving in total confidence, knowing exactly what you need to do and that you can do it.
​
Achieving this requires the learning of many new skills, there will be ups and downs. But we will be there for you all along the way with clear and patient coaching.

LA VENTANA
La Ventana is a peaceful town just 45 minute south of La Paz, Mexico (Baja Sur's capital city).
The town is nestled between the ocean, the Sierra de la Lauguna mountains and the sierra de las Cacachilas desert. You couldn't wish for a more beautiful setting.
The town overlooks the sea of Cortez and the island of Ceralvo also known as Jacques Cousteau island after the underwater explorer who fell in love with this place.
La Ventana offers a wide variety of options for accommodation, food and adventure so you and your family cannot be bored.
The ocean grants beautiful conditions for deep diving, and an abundance of marine life. Imagine preparing for a dive with dolphins and Mabula rays jumping all around you... this is a reality of diving here.

Safety Team
Zoe Lower
Originally from a fashion photography background, Zoë first came to freediving in the hope of becoming more comfortable taking her lens below the surface and to help maximise her marine life encounters. Since that first line dive she has been in a love affair with all things underwater. She is a qualified Molchanovs instructor with a holistic approach and a soft spot for breathing techniques, yet it’s the pure connection with our oceans and the serene solitude of diving that she cherishes the most.
Safety Team
Julia Roca
‘Julia, pronounced "who-lia”, is a California-born soul with roots extending to the vibrant landscapes of Colombia. Her upbringing was immersed in the magical kelp forests of California, where her father taught her the art of diving. Her aquatic journey led her to Asia, where she refined her skills and earned certification as a Molchanov’s Freedive Instructor and Breath Coach.
For Julia, life is an adventure best lived with a smile. Specializing in the blend of playfulness and inner peace that freediving offers, she sees each dive as a chance to explore the depths and connect with the ocean's rhythm.
Assistant Coach
Amapola Nava
Ama believes that freediving can teach us to be gentle with ourselves, our community and our environment. She loves to bring good humor in and out of the water. Her favorite part of teaching is personalizing the learning process, oriented towards self-knowledge and enjoyment.
From 2010 to 2016 she participated in World and Pan American championships, obtained several national records in all pool disciplines, She also got two Pan American records and ranked fourth in static apnea on two World championships.

Tom Kaye
Tom's intrinsic love for the all things aquatic stems from a childhood spent in a competitive swimming environment. His focus in freediving is developing strong physical and mental fitness, whilst also cultivating a fun, fulfilling and supportive community full of laughter. Learning how to safely challenge ourselves, build confidence, and tap into the underlying potential of what our body and mind has to offer us is what truly motivates him. Tom views the ocean as a nurturing environment which gifts us with the ability to connect with nature and others.
