When did you last truly breathe easily?
The services I provide help to work on and solve this very personal problem for you. In the realm of the outdoors. This is where we integrate physical activity with mindful breathwork techniques to unlock your new way of living. Present. Aware. And purposefully.
Hello, I’m Marlon, an Australian freediving and snorkelling instructor trainer, breathwork coach, cycling guide, adventurer, photographer and writer.
For the first 15 years of my adult life I lived as a corporate executive, managing IT projects and stakeholder relationships in high stakes environments. I discovered the beauty of freediving, and it was only then that my life really began.
I want to share with you the power and beauty that breathwork brings to your mental and physical health, and what it means for your life. This one precious life.

BE A BETTER YOU! LIVE LIFE IN GREATER
fulfilment
Breathwork is an incredibly powerful set of tools to develop greater well-being, personal clarity, focus, and a calm disposition. However it alone cannot bring you poise and centredness under intense pressure.
The critical elements of being attuned to your awareness and attention, in addition to breathwork practices, are the key to foster renewed self-belief, steel your composure, and better self regulate for optimal performance, even in high stakes situations.
I am Marlon Quinn, award-winning PADI Freediver Instructor Trainer, Oxygen Advantage Breathwork Coach and accredited Trainer Assessor, and former IT-Executive, here to guide and facilitate your development using tailored freediving and breathwork practices so you can cultivate your better life connected through fluid movement outdoors.

Shauna
introspective and expansive
A deeply nurturing invitation to explore breath within our bodies, witnessing your breath & gently coming to complete softness, relaxation and surrender within the water, under Marlon’s kind, safe & trusting guidance. The incredible preparation and process of learning..I personally found to be touching those spaces of personal spirituality an unexpected bonus… Marlon continued to gently kept encouraging us and refining our own nuances as we descended beneath the surface. I adored every moment of this exhilarating…experience! Thank you.

intensely beautiful experience
I’ve surfed for 35 years, worked and played on the oceans my whole life and freediving has always intrigued me.
I can’t put into words how intense and amazing this experience was for me.
Marlon Quinn is an amazing teacher. Offering concise and encouraging feedback… If you’re curious just do it and I wish you a similar experience to me. Absolutely amazing.

Kelp Magazine Launch – Creating Conversations Marlo
Local waterman and passionate East Gippslander, Andrew Dooley, has dreamed of a way to share the heart of his favoured little pocket of eastern Victoria, the outcrop called Cape Conran.
And he’s found it.
KELP Magazine is his brainchild and an extension of spirit for the environment that he cherishes and calls home.
Mermaids Marianna and Lola Peninsula Rockpool Photoshoot
Hair swaying like fronds of kelp and mermaid tails that fin like the fish that curiously watch them. This is the beauty of a mermaid photoshoot in the sun drenched coastal rockpools of the Mornington Peninsula on the south-eastern coast of Australia.
On this sunny Spring day Marianna Mermaid and Mermaid Lola immersed into the beauty that only the coast facing the Southern Ocean provides. A powerful backdrop with raw millions-years old cliffs and rock platforms that have formed with the relentless urging of the waves that surge all the way from Antarctica. It’s here that mermaids and sirens of the sea return to the ocean and reclaim their mystical powers.
Finding the Source That’s Never Enough
Limitations: Finding the Source That’s Never Enough
Are we ever enough, or do the thoughts of never being enough intrude upon the enjoyment of the opportunity to live our own way, fluid and free?
In my work as a cycling guide and breathwork coach, it’s often the undercurrent in people’s and athlete’s minds that is the source of the discontent. And nothing at all to do with ability, skills, riding or the performance being undertaken which is abundantly present.
