learning how to swim (basic swimming, the ability to stay afloat, etc.) can be accomplished in a one hour session as an adolescent. |

I can swim from end to end in a pool, just can’t tread water. It’s very weird (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3982959&forum_id=2#36098152) |

That being said, "learning to swim" is mostly about becoming comfortable in the water and overcoming anxiety. The rest is just coordination and muscle memory. |

However, if he really wants to learn how to swim, he can. A solid number of guys in the Army had never been in water deeper than 4 feet and still managed to pass the swim test. |

Date: May 21st, 2018 3:16 PM Author: Crusty casino i have a ton of experience (mind you from WAAAAAY back) teaching swimming.
if you are relatively healthy and do not have a fear of water--
you can learn 4 basic strokes, survival floating in 5 1-hour lessons. even less. but they need to be spread out. 1 5-hour lesson won't cut it.
and you will need to practice a bit on your own once you learn.
I've never snorkeled, so I can't say. |
