I am the first person in my family to learn to swim. One of my cousins drown in a fishing accident in a lake that he had fished all of his life. No one in my family will go anywhere near water.
I did not learn to swim until I was in my LATE 20's. I fell in a friend's pool, and she immediately signed me up for swimming lessons. I started off in the most basic water adjustment class in Red Cross swimming lessons. Three years later, I earned my certification as a Water Safety Instructor. Now I teach others to swim in free lessons. I am proof that older persons can learn to swim.
I am very proud to be able to swim. I am proud to be able to help others.
