“My diving experience with MT has been nothing but great, she's a holistic teacher who is imparting more than just her diving knowledge on her students. A treasure trove of wisdom and information, she takes a mind, body, spirit approach to her lessons, an approach that I really resonated with and I'm sure many others will too. Can't wait to continue my apnea training in the near future!”

“My experience Freediving with MT Solomons far surpassed all my expectations. I had trained with other freedivers previously, which I enjoyed, but MT's knowledge and holistic approach were truly on another level. Her classes are packed full of invaluable information that only someone as experienced as MT could possess. You will leave her classes with a deep understanding for all aspects freediving, and wisdom that can be applied to all areas of life. It was truly an unforgettable experience and a privilege to learn from one of the world's best freediving coaches. I look forward to continuing my training with her.”

“"I chose MT as my first freediving coach after researching - just about literally - everyone else on the planet. She stood out to me for her long history as a leader in the sport, and the respect that other freedivers had for her. I could not have been more pleased. MT goes beyond mere technical instruction. She understands the mind-body connection, and with her yogic training integrates beautiful mental training as well. She has a huge heart for her students and the sea - which can be seen in every aspect of her life. I look forward to diving with her again!”

“La experiencia que viví tanto fuera como dentro del agua resultó superar las expectativas que tenía. MT es una mujer que integra de manera armónica diversas disciplinas a nivel mente cuerpo y espíritu, que me permitieron conocer más de mí, del poder e inteligencia de nuestro cuerpo. Ya en la cuerda sumergiéndonos su mirada y presencia sin duda me otorgaron una confianza que hizo ese día... uno de los más hermosos de mi vida.”

“I call myself a fish. Even before I could walk, my dad had me in the water. I have been a swimmer, a very good one, all my life. When MT's class was given to me as a gift, I honestly didn't think I would learn anything more than what I had figured out from experience. I mean, it's just holding your breath a freakishly long time while swimming underwater, right? No. It isn't. MT helped me understand the mammalian reflex and how that works. She taught me how to breathe before and after the dive. She taught me about posture, stroke and mental relaxation. I'm 55 and a sailing captain on the Sea of Cortez. After all these years of "free diving" on my own, which was really just diving down while snorkeling to get a closer look at the sea life or check the anchor, she taught me there is a lot more to freediving than just holding your breath. MT gave me the tools I needed to relax and reach my threshold. I hope to learn more from her in the future. She is a guru of free diving. My sensei.”
