Swimming problem (4)

1 Name: Kida : 2013-09-14 19:15 ID:g0BH/w3v [Del]

So, I'm in 10th grade, and we have swimming class. I'm fine with swimming in the 5 foot pool, but during Oct we'll be swimming the 12 foot pool. I have a major fear of drowning and deep water, I just need some advice on keeping calm and not freaking out.

Never swim alone, the best thing you could do is to always have someone with you. Take it slow, just don't push yourself, and keep calm; the water can only hurt you if you let it. I hope that helps! (^o^)/ good luck!!

I'm on the swimming team at my school and my best advice is to practice the most you can in the 5 ft water. When you go under close your eyes and pretend you are in the 12 ft water. It may be scary but just do it over and over and If you cant handle it have a friend or teacher near by to give you more confidence. If you practice I know you can do it!
