    just as the topic says. can you swim at all?

    well for me, unfortunately no. i cant understand why not but i just dont have enough buoyancy.

    EDIT: voted the wrong one. how stupid of me >_>
     
    I can, although I'm not entirely done my swimming lessons. I quit halfway through because I had wicked asthma and couldn't hold my breath underwater. :/
     
    It is a complete bummer your unable to swim. ;(

    Because swimming is awesome! I, of course, know how to swim. I'm quite great at it actually... everyone tells me to try out for lifeguard, but I don't want that kinda of responsibility XD


    So yes, I swim just fine. ;D Though I know some people that can't. =/
     
    I can swim perfectly ;D Those lessons helped me a whole lot.
     
    I don't swim underwater without holding my nose anymore because for some reason I at some point lost my ability to do so without getting a little water in my nose, which really bothers me. I guess I'll say I could swim to save my life if I needed to, and I can swim above water fine.
     
    I swim underwater pretty well, and I can at least keep my head above water, so... a little bit, I guess?
     
    Yeah, I can swim perfectly fine both on top of and underwater. I took lessons when I was younger, but just playing in our pool got me where I am now.
     
    I can swim pretty well. Though my fairly low stamina means I can't really swim for too long, nor can I swim very fast, but I can still swim. Ah, I feel like going swimming now :\
     
    I can swim, since my family used to toss me into the pool since I was a wee toddler. And I also took a few lessons at school. I can't do any fancy strokes while swimming, but there's a less of a chance that I could drown because I don't know how to swim.

    I just really don't like swimming, since I only swim in pools, and I hate being contained in the pool. I do enjoy swimming in the ocean, however.
     
    Yes I can swim. I learnt to swim before I was five and was a member of my local swimming club. It took me like forever to learn how to dive, I just couldn't get it together but one day it just came and I was able to do it. I only did competitions up to 50 metres, 100 metres just seemed way too long. But I did eventually get the sticker saying I had done 1500 metres that was nice. Also did some competitions for the region, but I wasn't that good and at my local club I was always swimming against someone that was better than me, but that was ok you got to use it. I also liked backstroke and breastroke and could never get into Butterfly. I did like medley events too.

    I believe swimming to be very important and I do not understand why some parents do not teach their kids to swim. They don't need to be great at it, but all children really should learn to have a basic swimming ability. Because, you never know what could happen. And do you want to be pushed off a boat and not be able to save yourself? I also believe people need to at least learn how the sea works because theres a big difference between swimming at the pool and swimming in the sea.
     
    I can sort of swim; I guess I'll say I can swim enough to have fun in a pool. I've never taken proper lessons, and I probably look really weird when I do it, but I can to some extent. I have to plug my nose and close my eyes, though. XD;;
