Freediving in Hawaii

Kimi Werner grew up on the tropical Hawaiian island of Maui and began learning to dive when she was six years old. Now she's a champion freediver - which means she dives without any breathing apparatus. In fact Kimi can hold her breath for over four minutes. She's also a trained chef and mostly dives to catch sea creatures to feed herself and her friends. Kimi's been telling us about some of her undersea adventures.
