i've never understood this.

are you a nigger?

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

Had several people attempt to show me how to swim. Three were life guards. I just can’t seem to tread water for some reason. Thinking about doing a class

Black. But have had people attempting to teach me to swim since I was 5. Just doesn’t work. I can swim from end to end in a pool, just can’t tread water. It’s very weird

I think you might just be a useless faggot.

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.

It's harder for adults to learn IMO. Parents need to get their kids on this type of stuff (biking, driving, swimming). Basic life skills.

I'm sure it is, just like everything else.

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.

Quite a few "inner-city poor youths" who grew up in places like Oklahoma City or Little Rock, Arkansas. This was mostly in the enlisted ranks, not officers.

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.
