can learn one. i learnt when i was 30 yrs old.
my problem is fear of water. but i learnt and swims weekly now. i enjoy it very much. once you overcome fear, then its a breeze. but you have to be hardworking to overcome the fear by practising everyday lar. i learn from swimin12.com they promise that you swim in 12 hours of classes. if not money back guarantee. |

I learnt to swim by myself, and I can say that this technique by GloryKnight really works! I used to learn like that. It's true. First thing you need to learn is floating.QUOTE(GloryKnight @ Oct 30 2012, 11:41 AM) » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « All very good suggestions. I do have an unorthodox method of swimming which I taught my friends and learned myself. Try doing all those listed here recommended by LYN members. Unorthodox: Try going to the deeper and then slowly to the deepest area of the pool. around 2metre should be good. Try jumping up and down in the pool, jump up to breath and back down, repeat in the deep pool. everytime u do this, try jumping front to the other end of the pool, and KICK to propel u forward and move ur arms, slowly but miraculously, u will learn how to swim. dont ask me how, but it works. Was a swimmer during my schooldays. retired swimmer now. lol!!! |

Of course, I only started to learn swimming at the age of 18 or 19 (self learner)... I know how to swim in frog style and a little bit of freestyle... still don't have the stamina for free style

Get a friend to throw u into the pool.
The best is to go to the deepest depth of the pool. the buoyancy force will automatically push u upwards. |
