I don't wanna take swimming lessons?

Question

but i wana learn how to surf how can i concuer my fear

Answer 1

You won't need to take big lessons, just know how to swim, go underwater, the basic stuff. You won't need to be good at swimming just to start surfing. Have fun! :)

Answer 2

There is no reason why anyone, anywhere should not know how to swim. If you are really afraid of learning partner up with a buddy and take lessons together! Another option is to take private swimming lessons, although those can be rather costly.

Answer 3

Take swimming lessons.

-the longer you wait the harder it going to be.

-and the older you are when you take them the more embarrassing it's going to be.

Swimming is a skill everyone should have, whether you want to surf or not. And don't surf or go into deep ocean water (or even up to your waist, because it has currents) without knowing how to swim well. It's not a good idea.

Answer 4

start off in a shallow pool where you can touch the bottom. have a family member or a friend teach you how. if the beach is the only water avalible then still keep it so you can touch but swim in short distances, like have someone stand 20 feet away and swim to them. most of all just know that nothing bad is gonna happen and trust whoever your with (make sure its someone you can trust) lol ..hope this helps and good luck with your swimming and surfing!!

Answer 5

take swimming lessons.

Answer 6

Erica, If you don't want to take swimming lessons then don't! You don't have to nothing you don't want to do!But if you want to learn to surf you have to learn to swim alot of surfer drown out there! I know I'm from Honolulu Hi born and raise so I do know what the h**l I'm talking about! To conquer fear is to learn to swim first then learn to surf!You just got to go out there and learn to swim!

Answer 7

You're  in the water (or barely over it on your surfboard) and you don't know how to swim: that's pretty much like going skydiving without a parachute.
