Step 2Getting comfortable!
Remember, I taught children to swim, so we'll be taking this nice and slow.
The first thing you need to do is get comfortable being submerged in water. Play some games whit your friend in the shallow end of the pool, go under for as long as you feel comfortable and try to open your eyes.
If at any point you feel panicked don't try to force yourself to continue. Take some deep breaths (above water) and try again when you have calmed down. This is where your friend can come in handy for a bit of encouragement.
Once you feel good enough about having your head under the water for a good deal of time, you will be ready to move on to the next step.
