My father taught me how to swim when I was still young as a kid. I can still remember when he used to take me to swimming pool and it's how I learnt how to swim at a young age.
 
It took me a while to master how to swim. One of the difficult drills that was hard for me to learn was back swimming and floating. I'm happy to have known how to do it now.
 
I actually never really learnt how to swim though I have so much interest in it.

Hopefully I get to learn to swim later in the future.
 
I'm scared to death of water. I will never go anywhere near water, not even swimming pool. The sight of water makes me sick. Till date, it's why I can't swim or try learning how to swim.
 
I stumble across a swimming training course online which I paid for. I was skeptical at first if I would really learn how to swim from it but I shocked how helpful that was in teaching me.

Everyone is built differently. Some are very much okay with swimming, but it is not the same for others. So, I get your idea of being scared to get close to the water and feel no one should force you to do so.
 
I don't know how to swim and I'm not eager to learn too. I have phobia for water both the shallow and deep ones. I can do other things and not swimming.

You can grow above this fear once you make serious efforts towards doing so. It may not be as easy as you would want, but pushing and making efforts to overcome this phobia towards swimming is very possible.

I have tried many times to see if I can overcome this fear but it's not something I can do. Swimming is very beautiful especially when I see people that loves to do it.
 
If I don't know how to swim, what's going to be my gain? Swimming is a good exercise which is why I made sure to master the skill very well. I can even swim in the beach water with all the waves.

No, I don't know how to swim and as a result of that, I don't go anywhere near water that is capable of having me drown if I'm in it. I don't go to swimming pool at all.

So many of us are like that and the fear is avoiding it in order not to drown. I don't like going near a swimming pool or even a nearby flowing water because of fear.
 
Yes, I know how to swim a little. I learnt how to stay under water for a longer period of time from my cousin brother. He's a fish when it's come ato swimming and I made it a routine to always follow him to swim so that I will learn how he does it.
 
Swimming is a skill I wish I really know how to do, but no matter how hard I try I never seem to get it. So I just tried out other hobbies.
 
Swimming is a very good exercise. I know how to swim right from my childhood. It was my peer group that taught me how to swim. I will closely consider myself a pro at swimming.
 
I never find it very difficult to swim. I think it only took me about one week of practice and I mastered how to swim perfectly. There is no water that I am afraid of swimming now.

Wow that’s nice. I think you had the flair for it already for you to be able to do it well after just a week.

Yeah, it came naturally to me which was why I never struggled with it. Do you know how to swim very well? If you don't, I can share a page on Facebook where a guy teaches and he's very good.
 
Yes, I know how to swim. It wasn't difficult for me to learn how to swim because all my senior siblings all know how to swim. They helped me so much in learning fast.
