[quote=Anonymous]I am far from an expert, in fact my swimming is weak (I have trouble with the breathing), but here is my advice: You might want to consider beginning with treading water. Usually taught after learning how to swim, it might be an easy way to give you some confidence. Your head stays above water (so you don’t have to coordinate breathing) and the motions are simple. While it won’t propel you anywhere, it can allow time for someone to come to your rescue. While you definitely want actual swimming lessons, there are lots of videos on Youtube that might give you a better idea about beginning swimming than anything we can post in text. Good for you for tackling this. I know you can do it. Your determination is inspiring me to reevaluate some of my blocks that I gave up on rather than overcoming. I think I’ll need to try again.
