There was one lane that had a single person in it..but he wasn't sharing with anyone. 
All other lanes were doubled already. I waited around as long as I could. rant rant rant...I feel better now.
Anyway, I'm going to start with the standing flips in the shallow end you suggest! I know this will help. I am so uncoordinated at the flips.
Based on the amount of good info/suggestions you gave...I'll be asking for further guidance in about 3 months.  I have no confidence in my flippability.:p |
Start off by learning how to have fun in the water and being able to feel comfortable and relaxed. As silly as this may sound, can you bob in the water? Can you relax while bobbing? Can you hold a breath with out thinking about it? I guess I could start a new thread on this topic - Relaxation and Swimming?
