Is it too late to learn to swim?

it's not yet too late, by the way, we're on the same track, me too don't know how to swim, but i learn little by little, and it's good that we should enroll in a swimming school. and now that we have kids, then it's our responsibility to indulge our children to different skills.

It's never too late to learn. period. You should take a class or ask a friend to teach you. Taking the initiative is always better than just waiting around for something to happen. I started photography a later than all my friends. But with a little practice and a lot of determination, I can now confidently say that I am at par with them. Give it a shot!

It is never to late to learn new skills like swimming or cycling. I can swim which is useful because I love being in the warm sea when I visit tropical locations. I adore snorkeling to see colorful coral and friendly fish. I didn't learn to swim until I was 10 years old. I wasn't very good at cycling until I was that age as well. I regret not learning to drive a car when I was 17, 18 or 19 years old. I waited until my thirties to learn to drive. I so wish to pass the practical driving test soon. Your parents might not have had the money to teach you to swim. My teenage son can swim but my toddler son lacks confidence in the swimming pool. He hated the time his dad took him into sea water in Portugal.

Learning can never be too late. Well, that's what I think anyway. I somehow know how to swim but, I can't say that I can do it pretty well. A colleague of mine taught me after a student of ours tried to teach me how in an English camp that they participated in. If you are willing, you would somehow learn faster. If you are always hesitant, you would actually take time. It might be difficult for some but, its really rewarding once you get to do such things that you thought you would never learn how to do at all.

after read ur post ,i imaged what is my life and the time i learned how to swim,as i was youngh,my father sometimes spend time on swim with us in the river neary my village ,actually i learn the swim by myself.i like swim so much so that i usual go into river for swimming with my youngh buddies some is god at swim other like me dont swim .and i also konw something would be come up between ur parents and u,but i think u dont late for swimming and other ,just enjoy ur life ,with safe and kind.

No it's not what's age matter as long you want to learn go for it if you want learn to swim,,,, I would and plus riding a bike to as well,,,But if you really want to learn to swim all the best GOOD LUCK!!! it's allot of fun... cd

My parents also don't teach us how to swim and how to ride a bike. My father is a Navy he is a good swimmer but he don't teach us how to swim when we are younger. We only learn to swim when we are in College. I don't know if I'm still know how swim I'm only know one stroke which is freestyle. I haven't swim again for 5 years. Parents should also encourage their kids to learn new things unlike my parents they don't have time for that. Right now even it is too late I want to learn how to play a guitar.
