When did you start swimming?
When did you start swimming? Big Smile

Did you enjoy it straight away?

And when did you actually learn how to swim?

I can't remember when I learned how to swim. When we got lessons at elementary school I already knew how to swim. I always liked the water and swimming recreationally but started swimming as a sport 1 year ago. I wish I discovered it earlier (I am 40 now).

My family used to go to the beaches on Long Island. By the time I was 6 I actually remember rolling on the waves or body surfing. I totally enjoyed getting down in the water away from the summer heat, enjoying the salt sea and sand with all of my senses. I was already born to swim by the time I took lessons at the YMCA when I was 7.

I had started to swim when I was nine years old at Above Ground Pool. At that time I had gone with my friends. I have had little fear at that time, about how to swim. I had gotten full enjoy. After few weeks I had learn to swim well, but with a full practice, Big Smile and I had also force to my parents for made an above ground pool at own house. Still I love to swim and I can swim very well and still swimming once a day.

I remember when I went to pool for the first time, I was really scared even though it was not that deep. But I remained calm and went in... it was the day of 1994.. so its been now 17 years now
