Welcome to the official site of Tanya Streeter, television personality, multiple World Record holding freediver & passionate environmental spokeswoman. Welcome also to the fascinating world of freediving, the oldest extreme sport in history yet an emerging sport today. Like whales and dolphins, humans can take a breath and descend beneath the surface of the waves to experience the surreal silence and beauty of any aquatic environment. Unlike marine mammals however, freedivers have to train their bodies and minds to enable them to experience the underwater world in the way our mammalian physiology is designed to, in apnea. And a handful of freedivers choose to push human endeavor even further to defy science and redefine the limits of mankind by diving deeper than ever before.During her career freediving Tanya surpassed women's and even men's world records on several occasions, making her one of the most accomplished and recognized athletes in her sport. Called "The World's Most Perfect Athlete" by Sport's Illustrated in 2002 and chosen by high-profile companies to endorse their products, Tanya is a committed ambassador of freediving.
Her success in the sport, and subsequent public profile, has given her the opportunity to dive into the world of television and focus on her greatest passion - protecting the world's oceans. Global climate change is wreaking havoc on the world's oceans, and with her unique underwater talent and adventurous style, Tanya's work as a television presenter brings that watery world into millions of homes all over the world in a new, refreshing way.
Take a deep breath and dive into Tanya's world!
