GABY CONTRERAS

Entrepreneur, Dr in Biomechanics, Sport Manager, Producer,  International Judge & Mermaid Instructor

Engineer, researcher and postgraduate Proffesor retired from Central University of Venezuela. She came to Bonaire for making a dream:  Start a Freediving School as part of her support to her exhusband Carlos Coste (12x World Record). They were together 22 years since the beginning of his career, they met in the University when she was doing her PhD. In 2001, she became his manager to help him to organize  Record Event Projects. In that time, Freediving was almost unknown sport being very difficult to find financial and Media support. She used her Scientific management skills to prepare brochure presentation and convince Companies for financial support. She wrote Press Releases after every competition or Record Attempt to get Media attention. They worked as a big team. He was training very hard to be ready to break records every year, she was organizing everything to make succesful Events.

They made the impossible, they were pioneers, they made history together, they were a great team. They organized amazing events.  They created the 1st Freediving PADI&AIDA Center in the Caribbean.

Unfortunately life can change very quick. After few years struggling with troubles, they divorced on August 2021  and also start separation of the Company.

DEEPSEA Freediving will continue operating with a new team, we will focus on Basic courses and Mermaid Experiences. Coste will create a new Company to continue teaching advance Courses.  (Coming soon).

 

DEEPSEA team will centre on you to create a life experience to start your inner exploration on the underwater world.
