    Going against the grain and fulfilling one’s true purpose is something Zandile Ndhlovu knows far too well. As the first black freediving instructor in South Africa, Ndhlovu’s journey has been documented on a new dynamic YouTube series titledย Free Range Humans.

    Ndhlovu is part of eight extraordinary people from across the world who are being profiled on the original digital content series from Corona Studios.

    Believing that she’s one with the ocean despite the color of her skin, Ndhlovuโ€‹’s passion has seen her break through cultural barriers.

    “The first time I looked beneath the surface of the water something changed inside of me– I just remember feeling home in a way Iโ€™ve never felt before,” she says.
