Certainly a healthy fear of the water is a good thing. If the water is too cold or too much current it can be dangerous. But, if you know how to float, tread water and swim sidestroke then you do not have to be afraid of drowning as long as you avoid dangerous situations. This book stems from my love of the water and wanting to help more people overcome their fear of the water and gain proficiency in swimming so they are safe. I felt that breaking down the process into many small steps and explaining each step in great detail would help people gain knowledge and overcome their fear of the water giving them confidence to try each small step and learn to swim. Conventional swim lessons take way too much time and do not help people overcome their fear of the water. If you have ever taken swim lessons and failed because of your fear of the water then this book is for you. This book will take you through a progressive method that develops the skills you need so you can take those first steps to overcoming your fear and learn to enjoy the water. The steps include Learning to breathe off the top of your lungs; Holding your breath; Immersing the back of your head and your face; Floating with your lungs full and body relaxed; Floating while sculling; Treading water; Sidestroke, Breast stroke and finally Swimming under water and Snorkeling. Depending on your level of fear, you may take more or less time practicing these methods and learning how to swim. At some point you will need to stand up to your fear and take a scary step like putting your face into the water. Practicing the steps in this book will familiarize you with the risks and make that step less scary. It will still be scary but if you understand your body’s reaction to fear and trust in your abilities then you will succeed in taking those first scary steps. We will learn how to breathe off the top of your lungs keeping your lungs filled with as much air as possible which maximizes your ability to float. Then we will learn how to breathe deeply and hold our breath for a long period of time using relaxation techniques while sitting in a chair. We will start head and face immersion techniques in the sink and the bathtub while practicing our relaxation techniques. Only then will we proceed to the shallow end of a pool and learn how to float several different ways on our stomach and on our back while learning to relax. Finally we will learn how to float on our back in deeper water keeping our lungs full of air so that our chest and face stay above the water letting our heavy legs dangle down to the bottom of the pool. This is where you will finally learn why your fear of the water and tensing up has made it so difficult for you to learn how to swim. Once we have overcome our fear of putting our face and head in the water and learning how to float while relaxed, we will learn how to scull then tread water. Learning how to alternate between floating, floating while sculling and treading water should be enough to give you the confidence you need finally realize you will not drown if you fall into deep water. Only then will we be ready for the next step, learning how to swim the sidestroke. The sidestroke is the perfect stroke for new swimmers that are afraid of the water. For one, you can keep your head out of the water. For another reason, it capitalizes on your fear of the water and the harder you kick the more your head stays out of the water!

Practicing holding my breath as explained in the book, until I had confidence that I could hold it for 25 seconds gave me the confidence to try the Jelly Fish float which helped me overcome my fear of the water. Knowing how to breathe while keeping your lungs inflated helped me float a lot easier. I think every swimming class should teach the side stroke, it was really easy to learn.
