yes, i would say im a good swimmer. i mean my parents practically made me swim when i was little. haha.., cause i was afraid at first but then got the hang of it. but like how old are you? you know you could try to learn how to swim,. like small practices. you know like baby steps.. take it slow... dont rush into it the 1st time.. and as you practice you'll get better and you can take it to the next level.

Hello lovxxmusic..Of course, it is important that all of us know how to swim so that whatever happened us in the sea, we don't have to worry in our life. Better to overcome this fear so that I can do what I want.

well in my opinion it is important to know how to swim just in case anything happens.
although i am afraid of sharks and other types of creatures that lurk around the oceans., but dont think of those negative thoughts because that will make you fear the ocean.,. and your welcome,
hope you have a nice day toO

hai, care garden, i always enjoyed swimming but i almost drown once when i was a kid , i went for holiday with and there's a huge swimming pool their so i swam with my friend when i lost control and panic and i scream for help , luckily my friend pull off his shirt to pull me up. that's the reason i learn to swim because i want to control my fear , my weakness. After that i stared to love swimming, the simple tips is to take a deep breath and don't move, your body will flow automatically because air is inside ur body , u just need to lift ur head to change breath, let ur body become one with the water, it's fun, really .Or your can ask your friends to teach you.

Hi careguarden~ I don't think that going in a boat and not knowing
how to swim is a good idea. At least if you have some idea how
to swim and something happens you will have a slight chance of
saving yourself. Sometimes even the most trained swimmer can't
be ready for a circumstance that might happen in a boat accident,
but at least having as much training as you can is best before
going out on a boat.

Hello opal..You are right but I am afraid to ride a boat without knowing how to swim. It i risk of my life and I don't want to happen to me. Better to take care of myself than risking my life..

I am confident enough that I do good in swimming. You know not all swimmers can survive when they are drowning. Because it depends on the water. I know how to swim just because I learned it from swimming lesson but then I am afraid of water that has big waves because when I've tried to swim I can't even bother to swim well.

Swimming was THE most useful thing that I learned in school! I am a good swimmer - not fast but I can swim several kilometers. I know all the strokes and life saving techniques. I have even taught swimming to others as a way of earning extra money. I feel it is very important for all to learn as it is a healthy exercise and fun, not to mention it could save your life.

Hello petersum..Good for you because you know how to swim. sometimes, when I saw the kids practicing swimming in their swimming lesson, I felt I can't explain.Good for them because they have time and money to practice swimming unlike me. My parents didn't let me to enter the swimming lesson because we are lack of money during my childhood days that's why I've never learn how to swim.

I think you should be more confident,maybe you can save yourself someday if you can swim.The best way is to learn how to swim and pratise with good swimmers sometime until you are good at swimming.Just be patient and confident and you will overcome it.

Well not only on your part but in my part as well. I am not a good swimmer. I should learn more in order to consider myself good. I am so afraid to go deeper. In fact I would rather just stay in the kids pool to be sure I won't be drown,. (Just kidding!) Nevertheless, I love to swim just the same.
