PJ Palms freediving

No need to stop freediving if you are in landlocked Kuala Lumpur. The PJ Palm pool is a 4-12 foot deep, 50 meter pool in the PJ palms sports centre where you can train with the local freedivers. There is no set training schedule, but if you get in touch with @radz you can practice your technique, statics and dynamics here. (Divers in the above photo: @radz, Walter, and Nathalie from left to right).

The PJ Palm pool is located at a convenient 2 minute walk from the Taman Jaya LRT station. In order to join the training, you can register yourself at Swimin12 office. Each session costs RM7 (about 2USD). The full address is: 1 Lorong Sultan, PJ seksyen 52, 46200 Selangor.
