i am from india and here in small cities there are no swimming pools and proper teaching courses for girls.i mean i never got a chance to learn cos never had a swimming pool in the place where i stayed.

now i feel like learning but i don't have any idea of the techniques. will it make it very difficult for me?

  1. NO!theres like 40 and 50 year olds taking classes at night.


  2. Your never too old to learn to swim

  3. I'm older than you and i have never learned how to swim.

    My school had a swimming pool,my friends have pools and we have one at home.But none of my friends is brave enough to jump in the water.

  4. it is DEFFINATELy not too old to learn how to swim! you should try to have someone teach you because its REALLY REALLY useful so i encourage you to go learn and have fun! there arnet any techniques for swimmin! i mean in america little kids and babies learn it and they  dont have technique!

  5. no... u can never be to old to do anything... go for it.... pratice makes perfect!!!

  6. No way. Go for it, you'll really benefit from it and everyone has to learn sometime. Learning to swim isn't that hard, and as with learning anything, you have to start from the start. I'm sure you'll grasp it in no time, and it really is a good thing to be able to do.

    My grandma first learnt to swin at the age of 61!

    You're never too old.

    Good luck. Kate.x

  7. come'on , pssh who needs to swim , ? nahh everyone should know how and no itsnot hard to swimm at all , unless ur going into something fearther then leasure swimming,  but its is just chill swimming then it'll be like taking candy from a baby , a sleeping baby . and nahh ur not to old , ur kinda pushin in but ur not quite at "old " just yet. sooo TAKE A CHANCE AND LEARN TO SWIM!

  8. Its not hard! and your never to old to learn! just have some one who knows how to swim teach you. Or just read about how to learn and then try, but dont go too deep until you learn! lol ;)

  9. No age is too old. It going to be pretty daunting at first, just relax and have fun. YOUR NOT GOING TO DROWN!. Just keep in mind that you wont learn to swim in 1 day, it will take time, be patient, and dont be scared.

  10. You are never too old to learn anything.

  11. You can take a class at the local YMCA.  You're never too old to learn how to swim.

  12. Not at all.

    21 is not too old.  I don't think any age is too old to swim.

  13. Age is not a problem to learn swimming.

    Technique? Not a big deal. All you have to do is to push water under and along your body with your hands (one by one or in the same time) and move your legs in the same time, like you want to push more water behind you.

    A problem might be if you are afraid of water having fear of swimming. If you have fear, then start learning only in water that is not deeper than your body (neck). Go to deeper water only after you are very sure you can swimm for longer time, long enough to get back where from you left and can rest.

    Good luck!

  14. no, anyone can learn to swim! it's easy!

    good luck! :)

  15. You're never too old to learn anything!

  16. it is never too late and it is not difficult as an instructor the one main thing when swimming is to relax and enjoy
