Hi. I am a lifeguard, and have been teaching kids to swim for 10 years now...If you are trying to encourage to dunk and be comfortable in the water you might like to check out my new story, "Noah's Swim-A-Thon"- (the trailer is on youtube)

You can get it at a library, too!

[MrNationalchamps]

[Hollarator]

[brewski314]

[KlineStudios]

[Wagari1000]

@23sweden You're right. I was just about to comment on it when I saw your comment.



[YingYang510]

@TheLazygal15 thx and my pool is open so im gonna try it out!

[alimalinali]

Dang she makes it look so easy!

[HellOwnerz]

@alimalinali

yea man, it looks so easy, but it's fuking hard. xD

[iamawesome3121]

@alimalinali i know

[iamawesome3121]

@alimalinali i know right

[MrDevil2000]

it looks so easy but I suck!!

[mcdonaldsboy35]

THIS LESSON IS GOOD FOR KIDS

[polokim1]

never teach your child how to breadth lifting their head out the water, that interrupts their stroke and makes it harder to return to a horizontal position.

[GinaBananaPeil]

i'm teaching a little girl how to swim today. thank you so much for the tips!!

[theawsomedude777]

Thank you, I am a kid, and this helped me bunches

[devildogtony13]

lol wet pu55y

[carmenbwoods]

thanks this really helped me alot!!

[lexsoft]

Your right arm recovery is not exactly high elbow. You'd better mention The Fingertip drag as a drill to achieve the correct high elbow arm recovery as taught by GoSwim.

[WarriorsQuest14]

I am in highschool and I can not swim :(

[m1c0sTic0]

@WarriorsQuest14 you can swim,bro but u are afraid :S The same thing was happening to me. I am 11 i learnt how to swim when we were on holiday.I was watching how everybody is swimming and I tried that.It was easy.So don't worry you're not gonna be drowned!

[Rosie7p]

@WarriorsQuest14 Same here. :( Don't feel bad, you're not the only one.

[WarriorsQuest14]

@Rosie7p I feel like if I go into a pool and I am under the water there will be no one to help me and I will be left alone drowing.

[YingYang510]

This looks like a great teacher I'm gonna try it this summer in my pool. But I wish I knew before because ( I'm in 5 th grade) I had a Fun Night and there was swimming but I stayed at the 3ft pool and like everybody else was at the 9ft pool! 'm glad that I watched this video cuz it looks like it will help me!

[TheLazygal15]

@YingYang510 Don't worry I am going into seventh grade and i can't even swim if you try you can swim i know i will try it too.

[ilove12371]

i love it i got it my son learn to swim with this one day thanks :)

[04ma07]

Skeeeeeeeeen

[cookiespark1]

 is that an average 15m x 25m?

[cookiespark1]

Lol I'm 10and couldnt swim. Thanks to this video, I can now swim like a fish 

[coolgirl7348]

Next week, I have to swim for PE..but I don't know how! :/ (I'm 14). I'm a little nervous and self-conscious, since kids called me fat and chubby in the past. Wish me luck! :)

[jackmiller954]

@coolgirl7348 Best of luck, my friend!

[kawaiiushii]

@coolgirl7348 dnt know if u already took ur lesson but...good luck ^^

[alex10748]

@sophia rolf haha very true!!

[Shenu2009taher]

omg 138,712 vids!!!!

[sophhie93]

America does it soo differntly to in the UK. I'm sorry but explain this to me please, if your on a boat, boat sinks etc and so far you'v only done one piece of swimming lesson which was concentrating on gliding off a wall, how on earth are you supposed to save yourself? No walls in the the middle of the sea as far as I know?

[MissFabHelen]

it looks easy but...i cannot float on the surface without a board! im 12 and i feel ashamed..i still cant swim! u see..im kinda scared of water,

[Ninjafruit123]

Ugh, Expert Village -.-

[dahatijjani]

Good tuts woman

[shamelesslycool]

For as long as I can remember, I've loved being in the water. I learned to float as a kid, but never learned to swim. One day I decided to search swimming videos on youtube & found this one. I laid on my living room floor & practiced moving my body the way she instructs. The following summer, I tried these moves in the pool & began swimming for the first time, at the age of 17. Had it not been for this video, I don't think I would've been able to figure it out. Thank you!

[Fjerid]

The quality is so bad, i can't render the girl from the water.

[tnguyen318]

Regarding swimming.

1. Chimps, Monkees and Humans do not like Water.

2. Do not swim too much because it gets bad for your blood.

3. **Do not swim when you are pregnant.

[iluvswim326]

i just love this video series....best ever on youtube!!!!!!!!!!

[TheGemini250]

thanks for the tutorial :):):):)

[djAlix6x9]

you are so fake... your smile is so fake and your talking is sooooo fake...

everything is fakeeee about you :@@@@

[repme]

@djAlix6x9 Stop being so picky. It's not like she's giving a speech. She's giving instructions. All that matter are the words. Not how the words are said.

[djAlix6x9]

@repme : she is still faking everything.

she teaches good. nothing against that , but be more yourself. don't just laugh because you are in front of camera!!!!!!

[DoktorRoki]

I would like to swim with you.

[bdavisXXXXX]

sheet i been slappin the water

[actigene2]

what do you do if you can't keep rhythm?

[Burts30]

Im 34 and learning to swim, i can swim but I cannot breath for the life of me..

[TheJardov]

@Burts30 I can hold my breath for about 2 mins, but 34 years without breathing?

A good tip that helped me get breathing is to cough when your head comes up for air - this forces you through reflex to breath in straight afterwards, it helped me get started.

[eminemfan091]

your a pro you make it look easy but us we are sh*t so its not easy okay?

[DVSFS]

Wrong streamline...... i guess cuz its just for teaching children, everything else seemed right (not).

[DancingKween4Life]

Oh wow thanks for teaching me! 

[swarnajeeya]

cool

[TheLeilisa]

swimming would help you grow taller ?

[ElectricTRAN]

[TheDylan1234]

[TheLeilisa]

[oooirisjuhooo]

[weirdmichael999]

[HonorVirtue]

WE LOVE THE NORTHWEST FRONT!

NWFRONT.NET

[SSBlingsA7x]

Where the fuck is the bikini!

[XxLongjohnzXx]

LISTEN I WILL TELL EVERY SINGLE 1 OF YOU PARENTS HOW TO TEACH YOUR CHILD TO SWIM FOR FREE.. PICK THEIR ASS UP AND CHUNK THEM OUT IN THE 9FT DEEP WATER I PROMISE YOU THEY WILL LEARN HOW TO SWIM B4 THEY DROWN. *Thumbs up so people dont waste their money*.

[kimiko100able]

Hi. I actually started viewing your videos over the summer. Neither me nor my son knew how to swim. After watching a couple of your videos, I started to swim and I actually got my son into the pool (a big deal for him!). I enrolled him in swim classes and worked with him via your videos and taking him to our local pool to practice what you taught. He jumps off the diving board now at 12 ft. and excelled in his swim class.

Thank you!!!

[zDeQz]

@kimiko100able Bullshit Pvt. Pyle.

[ohMich28]

ooooooooohhh!!!

[vietpi]

i can see underwater now :) for like 15 sec

[vietpi]

i dont know how to swim.next semseter in like 2 month i gotta swim in gym and i scared i gonna drown

[lucyfenworthy]

@vietpi hmm..why dont you practice...just practice breathing underwater and paddle with a board...you shold start in a baby pool so you know you wont drown :)

[ErminsProduction]

i know swimming :)

[ninwaya86]

thank u so much.......... i learned a lot

[0wnuall101]

ughh, she makes it look so easy..why couldn't my parents teach me how to swim when i was younger!! =(

[latinthrowdown]

@0wnuall101 i hear ya. i asked my parents the same thing. when i was 17 i jumpped off a pier following my cousin and friend i knew they knew how to swim but. i thought to myself " they have my back ". i was so wrong i litterally went to the bottom and crawled myself out to shore lol

[0wnuall101]

@latinthrowdown wow, i thought i had it bad... at least during gym, my teacher can save me or something. lol

[sirbuggy56]

she is my own

[MONEYisPOWER101]

hot 2

[MONEYisPOWER101]

i`m been learning to swim for 4 years and coz of her i think i will 2moro

[rclewlow]

MetallicAddict15 i think you will find many people have the same problem. If want to retrain your legs to be able to do a front crawl kick then try wearing some fins. fins are small flippers that you will struggle to kick breaststroke in. a cheap pair will cost about £20. before anybody asks i am a qualified swimming teacher and coach

[kareem95012]

she very good i cant swim atall

[latinthrowdown]

@kareem95012 i agree. she is very good. i also can't swim but, i can float lol.

[0wnuall101]

@latinthrowdown at least you can float.. in gym we're in the pool and i can't even do that! =(

[latinthrowdown]

@0wnuall101 lol that's bad

[kareem95012]

she very good

[dealwiththetruth767]

@AmandaBee7 People who haven't been taught obviously. Did you automatically know how to swim or something? I highly doubt it but if you did I think you should know that most people usually don't.

[fisherboy207]

that was useful

[fisherboy207]

@AmandaBee7 me so fuk you

[PieFaceRecords]

@AmandaBee7 People who haven't been taught perhaps?

[MrXiiiaoaces]

i don't know how to float on water before start swimming ........

[MetallicAddict15]

Because I've always swum in breaststroke for years, my legs won't stop making that movement, even when I'm using different strokes. I think I'm the only person in the world who involuntarily does a breaststroke kick while breathing in front crawl. =-/ Anyone have any tips to work on leg movement?

[MrStrato123]

thank s

[EsperTinaVI]

Tsuna was doing the crawl stroke, as they called it, in the Reborn anime and I decided to check it out. It's supposed to be the fastest swimming stroke right? And it looks really easy! Man, I wish it was still summer so I could test it out. I almost drowned this summer if it wasn't for my taller nephew. Man, summer can't get here quick enough and this is the first time I'm saying that without meaning I want school to be over! I just wanna try to swim! (we got there late and only had 2 hrs anway)

[MrVDC1996]

i learned from my brother who threw me in a six feet deep pool when i was 5 yrs old at the time i freaked out and thought i would drown and die so i was slapping my hands around underwater and kicking my feet until i began to float to the top then i swam to the edge and got out

i was scared even though i knew my brother wouldnt let me drown

but at least i learned :) scary at the time though :(

[Diana5189]

I tried this basic in the pool on how to float

[Diana5189]

The first time I swim in the pool I felt nervous because the pool is for 6 feet.

My feet can' t touch the floor. This is very good video. I'll watch more videos to learn more techniques

[mstook8377]

i'm trying to teach my little sis how to swim but she won't do the most important thing.........getting in the water.

[koahlman]

this is the best instruction video for swimming without even trying i've seen so many videos that if applied just dont work this is by far the simplest and the best

[selearemus]

so i can swim after this/

[noviceuttam]

I cant see anything except writing

[bbadmike]

press the button that says cc

[dinusha9991]

great, i learned a lot

[nick89ist]

wtf u cant see shiet

[assi28167]

lol is this what I've practice 2 days back ..... its hard but now i do from side to side of the pool..

[ben710]

It taken me about 15 minutes to learn breast stroke well enough to do a lap of the pool that's over my head, so for those that don't know how to swim, I recommend that first.

I am just starting out on how to swim and I'm 21 years old, it's pretty fun

[chenbo2903]

I learn swim alone no one teach me!so i swim very wierd!

[kirsion]

i know how to swim now!!!@@#

[okdencom]

ide be comftable with you
