i mean how were you not brought into a situation where you weren't taught?

i learned how to swim in a pissy pool at the local YMCA with homeless people passed out on the pool deck.

what happened when people had pool parties at their apt complex (or house :win:) back in the day? what about when broads invited you to the local pool in the summer?

Almost drowned when I was in the 2nd grade. shyt fukked me for LIFE. If things go according to plan I'll be learning soon tho.

But I'm 6'3" so at pool parties I'm in 5 feet chiiiiiiiillin like......what it do? :smugdraper:

fukk I look like 21 years old going to a pool learning how to swim and getting clowned by 5 year olds.

I'm waiting until I can afford a place with my own pool and then I'll learn.

I'm Caribbean but I can't swim. The rest of my fam is fukking fishes though. I kinda learned in highschool but I forgot. Plus I'm like 5% body fat so my ass is sinking regardless.

i cant understand how teenage and above people cant swim. how can you not swim? i hear someone say that, and i just look at them with the :what: face. all you do is kick your legs and paddle your arms and you stay afloat. if you are going under, wouldnt you instinctively flail your arms and figure out that it keeps you above water?

Grew up in Florida, so I was destined to learn.

How did I learn? Was at the pool one day with some chicks (one of em I was crushin on). In order to avoid getting clowned, a nikka figured it out real quick...

But seriously, I don't get how yall can't do it. It's not really a complicated thing to do

I had swimming lessons and halfway through that bytch I got chicken pox. I can swim from one point to another but can't stay in place and float in water:beli:

I don't understand why my instructors didn't teach me how to float first

I can swim under water and on top of water
But the thing is..I cant tread water. So..if you drop me in the deep end, in the middle of an ocean, or make me dive..I wont make it.. :snoop: I just gotta be moving forward at all times.

Brehs, just keep your back straight and limbs extended. Its simple, dont be scared.

As for treading water, its even easier. Just keep moving in an even rhythmic manner

You're all welcome
