6. I don't know how to do this as an adult. I suppose spending a lot of pool
time with a friend teaching/supervising. Getting comfortable with putting face underwater, the breathing motion/aspect.

I learned breast stroke from my dad as a kid, but taught myself crawl when I was in my 20's. Just spent a lot of time in the pool at my apartments, watched people, taught myself the arm and turn/breathe aspects, and then incorporated the kicking.

I'm not a great swimmer by any stretch of the imagination and I'm as slow as tar. Just do it because it's good exercise to try and get/stay in shape.
