Swimming Training.

 Swimming can seem daunting if you've never learned to swim, but it's actually a sport that anyone can do. Playing around water can be a lot of fun, and knowing how to swim can also save your life if you ever get caught in the water. All you need to do is get comfortable in the water, learn the initial moves, and then learn more difficult techniques when you're ready.

1. Get rid of your fears. Many people refuse to learn to swim because they are afraid of drowning. While drowning "can" happen, most can be avoided with simple safety measures. Follow these guidelines whenever you swim, and you're much less likely to drown:
Don't swim alone. Always swim with someone who is good at swimming, or else several others.
Do not start swimming in moving water. If you are learning to swim in the ocean or river, you need to be aware of the movement of the water. If you have to learn to swim this way, make sure you're with someone with experience, and be sure to read how to get out of the ocean waves or streams (below)
Stay as deep as you can go. When you're first learning to swim, don't go into water that's too deep for you to stand on. That way, if something happens, you just have to stand up and breathe normally. #*Never swim in bad weather. Swimming in a drizzle may be okay, but if you see a storm approaching, get out of the water immediately. This rule must be followed no matter how well you can swim.
Do not swim in water that is too cold. Movement of your limbs to pedal can be very difficult if you are in cold water.

 2. Get used to floating. When you're in the water, hold onto the edge of the pool, and let your feet float behind you - your feet should be able to float easily. Practice doing this on your stomach and back until you feel comfortable letting half of your body float.
Try floating on your back or stomach once you're ready. Stay in shallow water, so you can stand up if you can't. It may feel strange to have your ears around the water while your nose and mouth are in the air, but you will quickly get used to this. For even more stability, place your hands at right angles so that your body is in a "T" shape.

3 Don't panic. Always remember that there is a way to save yourself if you are in deep water or when you can't move your limbs - floating on your back. Don't move or breathe too fast; simply lie down with your back as straight as you can, and let the water lift you up while you regain control.

4. Learn to exhale underwater. While you are still in shallow water. take a deep breath and dip your face into the water. Slowly exhale the air from your nose until you are out of breath, and lift your face out of the water.
If you feel uncomfortable exhaling through your nose, you can either close it or use a nose mask and exhale through your mouth.

5. Wear goggles (as you wish). Wearing goggles can help you feel more comfortable opening your eyes underwater, and may allow you to see more clearly as well. Find a pair of goggles that have foamy circles around your eyes and soak them in water so they stick to your skin. Tighten the strap at the back of your head so that it is tight.
