E060 - Tamara May

This episode is sponsored by XDEEP and supported by the patrons of Speaking Sidemount.

I'm really excited to share this episode with you featuring my chat with Tamara May. I first sighted Tamara on YouTube, I think about 5 or 6 years ago as the star of an excellent sidemount configuration and skills video shot in Mexico. The skills were excellent but as I was taken with the video flow, the camera and editing work which really made the video incredibly compelling.

More recently I saw Tamara listed as one of the exploration divers on Robbie Schmitter's all-female cave exploration team for the Xunaan-Ha Expedition in 2021. I thought this was a great initiative bringing together a group of great divers with disparate experiences and skillsets to complete a new exploration project under the guidance of an experienced cave explorer.

In this episode, Tamara and I discuss: how she got into diving and it became her life's passion. We discuss her travels to various parts of the world to train, work and develop as a diver and instructor. We get into her work at Protec Mexico with Patrick, Kim and the Protec team and also how she set up her own diving brand... Dive like a Ninja. We chat about her upcoming Xunaan-Ha Expedition project with Robbie Schmitter. Check out here for how you can support the team in this awesome project - https://www.gofundme.com/f/the-xunaanha-expedition
