Awesome that you are overcoming your fear! The breathing is tough, but we can get through it! Glad you found a good instructor!

Thanks for the encouragement! I’m sure we’ll both master breathing soon! My instructor is very patient and helps me face each step. It’s tough to find instructors who understand water fears. Mine knew I needed to feel comfortable even just walking in the water.

Congrats, keep it up!

To help with the swim cap, have someone press the tip of it on your forehead and then pull the rest over your head.

Congratulations!

Congratulations! Reading your post brought a smile to my face. I don’t know who you are, but I’m so proud of you for signing up for a lesson, showing up, and giving it your all. You’re amazing!
