Has anyone here done adult swimming lessons?
I took lessons from about age 3 to 13, but that was a long time ago. Also, I was stuck on the same level for about three years, never really progressing, probably because of dyspraxia. The last time I went swimming in the ocean, I found it really difficult to keep myself afloat beyond just floating on my back, which is not conducive to activities like snorkelling.
young Mr Seagoon is a licensed swimming instructor for kids and adults
I could ask him a question if you like.
he's a good teacher too, kind and patient
Thank you, Seagoon
I just want to know if it starts from the very beginning, like learning how to float
