How old were you when you learned to swim?

@ScarlettBlue fear is one thing that will stick with ya!

You are so right.

I don't recall ever being scared of the water, I was nervous my first-time white water rafting, but that was because of the Power of the water not because it was water. lol

My fear was more from having nothing under my feet when I got into the deeper water. Thank goodness this fear didn't last for long.

@ScarlettBlue I used to teach rescue and survival swimming and that is the biggest one. I always started by teaching people how water works and how to float, Once people understand that they can relax and focus on enjoying the experience.

@ScarlettBlueI see from your other comments that you got over your fear. So glad to hear that.

I did. It just took some practice and a little time.
