Yes.

I am not great at any of them, but I am awful at the butterfly. I never could coordinate it.

Re: do you know how to swim...

I'm a great swimmer, and as for the stroke, I think I'll have to defer that to DH. Chat Icon

Since I was old enough to walk, I have been swimming. My best stroke is the back stroke.

Yes. 6am lessons at the beach in freezing cold water with the Red Cross every summer when I was little Chat Icon
As to strokes, I am best at freestylin' it b*tches. Chat Icon




ouch 6AM!!?? I did swimming lessons in the cold wtaer too, but ours started more at like 10 am...thankfully

I would say freestyle is my best. I have done a few triathlons and revert to a breast or side stroke when tired...LOL

Re: do you know how to swim...

Yes I do... I grew up in the water, in a pool, on a boat etc.... I was a swim instructor and I was also a lifeguard for mmmmmm 6 years .... We used to have to train every morning , run 2 miles, swim 2 miles then repeat plus all of the other excersises to practice saving lives.... YOu'd be surprised the stuff we had to go through....... It's definitly NOT like baywatch Chat Icon

Oh and Freestyle and side stroke are my strongest strokes ... BUt can also do butterfly, breast, and backstrokes fairly well...

i dont know how to swim and you needed to swim to pass high school...don't know how I did it.



Same here. But I know how I passed. I would just glide on the top, pushing myself with my feet - and when momentum stopped I'd put my feet down and push again - being sure not to move my top half out of the water. Guy couldnt tell the difference, and really didn't care.

I wish I could swim - I'm petrified of the water - won't go in ocean, pool unless my feet touch and my head is above water. A 'friend' of mine when we were young pulled me in and held me down; and then in the ocean once I got pulled in, due to the undertow. I'm permanently damaged. Even with DH holding me up in the water I still freak out. Chat Icon

This is exactly me as well. I am so afraid of the water, the most I'll do is sit on the steps of the pool. I have never been underwater, it just terrifies me. Chat Icon

Re: do you know how to swim...

No, I don't really know how to swim. I can't even float.

And yes, I'm aware that I live on an island.

I can get around in a pool but I won't go past where my feet can touch the floor and my face is above the water. I don't go in the deep end unless I hold onto the wall.

And I absolutely HATE getting splashed in the face!!!!!!
