I dont remember the day that I learned how to swim. My father told me that he used to throw me at the ocean when I was 8 months old and I was swimming like a dog lol!. I grew in a community near the beach so the sea has been a extension of my playground. I'm already wet and salty before I even eat my breakfast:)These goes on for a decade until my parents decided to relocate in the city. Now I'm married and in as much that I want my kids to be good in swimming too but we're very far from the beach so we just have to swim at the pool occasionaly so they would also learn how to swim.

I would like to think that I know how to swim well. I started swimming when I was 3 or 4 years old. I took swimming lessons down at the beach/lake. I did Aqua Quest 1, 2, 3 for sure and possibly 4. I did Aqua Quest 5 or 6 I think when I was in grade 4 (around 9 years old) but I failed it! Though I believe I am a good swimmer .. Especially since in phys ed class we did some swimming at the YMCA in my city and I beat a lot of people (doing the back stroke which is my strongest swim).

I know how to swim.When we were young, my mom couldn't make us get out of the pool.When you have older cousins like mine who bully you and drown you, you'll surely learn how to swim.So, everyone in our family know how to swim.Together with my brother, we taught swimming for 9 years every summer to kids and adults. Swimming is very important to learn because it can ultimately save your life.

I know how to swim but I can't say that I'm really good at it. I know how to swim and when I chose swimming for my P.E. in college, I got to learn freestyle and backstroke.
