It is important to swim. It is siad that it's the only sport that trains every single muscle. I remember i was with some of my friends on holiday and we went tpo swim in a river. I was so shamed because i didn't know how to swim and all the others did. Next day, for a month, i went to the swimming pool and tried until one day i discovered how easy it was. i'm glad i know how t swim.

Oh, i really really want to swim, but i can not do it. When i was young, i have learned how to swin few times. Now, i want somebody to teach me that, but i am kind of shy for the swimming instructor teaching me in swimming pool together with kids. So i learned it by myself every summer at the beach. Maybe my cerebellum is not highly developed, i can not swim so far. My hometown is a famous seaside resort, so there are so many people at beach every summer. So it is really difficult for me to find somewhere to learn swimming.

Yes, I know how to swim. I was afraid of large bodies of water when I was a kid, and what a better way to allieve that fear than to learn how to float and swim. Our family used to go to this huge farm pond in the summer after doing our farm chores. Finally one day I got brave and stayed close to the dock and worked on perfecting how to float, and then to swim short distances. By the end of that summer I could swim all the way out to the platform, and even lost my fear so I was able to dive off the platform in the middle lol. I think it's very important that people learn how to swim when they're kids. So many times you hear on the news where a child fell in by accident and drowned. Learning how to stay afloat and not panic in water is an important thing to learn!

Hi Dreamnishu, let me tell you first that by mistake you wrote impotence instead of importance which has changed the meaning as a whole and it looks funny like copulation instead of population (jokes apart). The answer is yes , yeah i know to swim and i enjoy it whenever i get time. It is very important for two reasons i guess 1. you will remain healthy and fresh all the time. its whole body exercise and bathing together. 2. when there will be maniac like floods or something either you can save yourself or can save others life too. So yup at least you should know the basics of swimming which means you can help at least yourself.

Hi! Yes, I know how to swim, but just so as i can't drown myself :) I can swim under water very good, and on the surface I am not so good. Actually I learned how to swim two summer ago, on 21 years, when I went with my friends and girlfriend fishing in the Danube- one of biggest river in Europe! Then they decided to learn me how to swim and it was very cool!
