Have you ever learned how to swim before? If so, what was your experience like?

My Grandmothers/grandfathers house has a pool. I lived there when I was a kid and learned to swim.
I'm a pretty strong swimmer.
Except for last summer I swim every summer doing laps as exercise.

Yeah, we have a swimming pool here. I don't generally swim in it much though as I should.

I have learned to swim before. I learned to swim when I was in school and also on holidays and such where there were swimming pools my cousin used to help me and teach me how to swim as well. I don't go swimming now as often as I used to when I was younger.

Yes of course, I know how to swim. This is because it's one of my hobbies. Although, my first time wasn't pleasant because I drank a lot of the pool's water 😂 😂 😂.

I only learned to swim at the age of 24.

I tried learning to swim and in an emergency I can probably doggy paddle, but.... I find it impossible to put my head under the water for any amount of time.

I have not had the opportunity to learn how to swim. I mean it is not something that I am even looking forward to. I have seen people drawn in pools and it was never a good sight.

Ah I see! Yeah, not really a fan of public pools anymore at all. I hardly swim in the pool we do own here.

I was fortunate to grow up with a swimming pool so I learned to swim at a young age, around 4 years old. I remember us kids being in the pool all day, every day in the summer.
I still love the water even as an adult even though I am not able to swim as much as I’d like to.
