Keith Ocampo

Keith Ocampo grew up in Cebu, Philippines, where he began competitive swimming at the age of 8—a foundation that would later support his journey as a triathlete. Beyond the water, he also found joy in hiking and camping in the lush tropical landscapes of his homeland. In his mid-20s, he served as a Fire Paramedic, continuing to push his physical limits while serving his community.

With water as his natural element, Keith took on a new challenge by becoming a Molchanovs Freedive Instructor, simultaneously applying his medical expertise as a competition medic during depth events. In 2022, he founded Ginhawa Freediving, his own freediving school.

Now based in Manila, with limited access to depth, Keith has shifted his focus to pool disciplines. He currently holds the Philippine National Record in Dynamic Apnea No Fins. Guided by a scientific approach to training, Keith emphasizes relaxation, steady progression, and the simple joy of each dive as the pillars of success in freediving.
