Answer 6

I swim with the Master's club in my town. I never did any organized swimming, I just showed up and started (I did know how to swim though). We did have a guy come to learn how to swim. He was 43. He was scared at first, but was having a great time by the end (only took about a month).

Answer 7

You should learn to swim.  Look for an Adult swim class to take.  

Don't be embarrassed.  Not everyone has the time or opportunity to learn to swim when growing up.

Answer 8

It's never too late to start learning something. You'll be proud of yourself, when you will be able to swim. Better later than never.

Answer 9

its really fun, a great workout, and if u ever drown (not that u really will but just in case) ull no how to swim. ppl do it as a safety precaution.

Answer 10

go for it. it may be harder for you to learn since your older. if you have kids try to get them involved. it is a very useful skill.

Answer 11

yesssssssssssssss but i dunno how to either

Answer 12

If its holding you back from life... Who cares!

Trying to learn to swim at 35 may be embarrassing, but not being able to is even more embarrassing at practically any age!

I'd go for it... You have nothing to lose.

Answer 13

sure and you may not have any trouble whatsoever. Look at it this way, it's better to learn in a controlled environment than to be stuck in the water somewhere trying to learn.
