[quote=Anonymous]I taught swimming for many years in high school, college, and beyond OP. I specialized in teaching the fearful/freaked out. The key is to try to relax. Take a breath, close your eyes, and image something positive. Try walking in the pool first. Practice breathing. Practice kicking holding to the sides. Practice going underwater. Ask the instructor to guide you once you take your feet off the ground. Good luck! The more you practice, the better you get. Remember, the best Olympic swimmers even need to practice every day.[/quote]
