YANA STASHKEVICH

Technical CCR Diver, Motivational Speaker, Coach

"Experienced technical CCR, cave, mine, and wreck diver Yana Stashkevich is rapidly making a name for herself when it comes to exploration dives"

Challenging stereotypes. Juggling exhilarating diving adventures and a full-time global career. UK-based Yana has an infectious amount of energy and enthusiasm and is a regular speaker and coach – she is passionate about inspiring people to push their boundaries and pursue their passion, whatever it may be.

She was a member of the Vaggfjellan XI expedition exploring the cave system located beyond the Arctic Circle, with an entrance on a slope of a Norwegian fjord, and she was a rebreather diver on the Underwater Filming & Research (UFR) project team documenting some of the world’s best-preserved wrecks in Greece.

Currently, Yana is actively involved in deep wreck exploration projects in the Aegean Sea, and promoting the maritime heritage of Greek waters, as well as exploring wrecks in the North Sea.

Over the past ten years, she has dived in over 35 destinations across three continents, all while balancing a career as a full-time global marketeer. She is currently working for the world’s most valuable whisky brand, The Macallan.

Yana is available to book for keynote presentations, motivational talks, presenting and hosting as well as one-to-one and team coaching sessions.

She will be giving an enthralling presentation about her exploits in Australia, Belgium and the UK this year.

"Challenge your limits not limit your challenges" is the best advice I have been given. If you don’t ask, the answer is always going to be no. Why wait? Go for it.
