Om Hanli Prinsloo

Hanli Prinsloo is a perennial South African freediving record holder and founder of I AM WATER Ocean Conservation. Prinsloo is a very skilled freediver and holds the record for 11 South African freedives. Her love of nature and the need for wild surroundings was instilled at an early age when she grew up on a horse farm in southern Africa. With a background in social political documentary film, Hanli Prinsloo has traveled the world to seek and tell stories of transformation, hope and inspiration. Hanli is an accomplished non-competitive diver and a sought-after coach who has worked with professional rugby and cycling teams, runners and big wave surfers. Prinsloo worked intensively with the South African Springbok Sevens rugby team in 2012-2013. Prinsloo was selected as one of the World Economic Forum's Young Global Leaders. Currently, her energies are directed towards ocean conservation through human experience and reconnecting people with nature via the innovative I AM WATER ocean workshops offered to vulnerable coastal communities globally. Her for-profit sister company, I AM WATER Ocean Travel, takes paying clients on extraordinary ocean adventures around the world and teaches yoga, free diving and large animal interaction as a fundraising tool for the foundation's work. Her personal vision of freediving with marine megafauna has resulted in numerous exhibitions, films and articles on the human/animal connection. She is a recognized inspirational speaker and Young Global Leader during the WEF.
