I have 2 years old boy. When should I start him to send to swimming classes. Do I need to learn how to swim before he learns?

I am a swimmer for my college and I started learning how to swim when I was 3 years old.

I'm not good swimmer also, my husband and I introduced swimming to my daughter when she was just a couple of months old (under supervisor though). So, you can just begin as early as you want. If you can't swim, just take the un-deep water and have fun playing water with him. Take a swim lesson together, that will be more good, not only for yourself but also for your son.
