Freedom to Float - Module 4. Regain Your Standing Position 

Thank you for addressing this. Instructors dont seem to want to teach this. When you know you can stand back up, that builds your confidence

Thanks thanks thanks Sir .What a beautiful teacher you are . For beginners like me you are God. No body teaches with patience and care like you .The hand that you put on the students body is enough for him to learn.

Thank you so much for this video. You clearly articulated what my instructor couldn't articulate which is that I should stand with my face still in the water. I practiced this today and I can finally stand in the water. Thank you so much! I just wish you published more videos especially how to stand from back float position.

thanks for the video, its really great! my biggest challenge is how to stand up in water, its the most frightening thing. the persons who can swim consider it so simple that nobody thinks how important it is for the beginners. so clearly described in the video, now i need just to try and practice. thank you!

Thank you so much Frank, this where I was exactly stuck at.

Thank you for posting this video. You have been a BIG help!. 2 mo ago i decided to take lessons to overcome my phobia of water-finally at the age of 42!. I had one-1/2 hr private lesson & we covered front & back float. Not so successful pulling out of it & consumed water. Discouraged I surfed the net & found you. After practicing for 2 months (2x a week) i can finally get out of a front float & still practicing & working on back. My 2nd class was only today & the instructor insisted bringing me into chest deep water (not comfortable with this yet)..I was terrified & again swallowed water. Half way into his lesson i think he realized just what phobia really means. i paddled on stomach with tube under arm & he stayed beside my the whole time. I wish you were my teacher :) I would be so happy if you posted more videos like the ones you already did. Perhaps one on how to get to vertical position from your back (not sure why this is so difficult). Once again, thank you--and i didn't even have to pay you.

Frank this is really helping me. Thank you so much, its the best video i have seen. Please post your full 45minute how to swim video, it will really help me & others like me who want to learn to swim. Once again, many thanks.

Frank Kennedy, your way of teaching and communication in clarity are great. You have a knack in getting through especially to the beginners. can we get to your videos on free to swim? VishG

Thanks for the video. You are the perfect instructor for me. I don't like ut when an instructor pushes me to do something I don't feel confortable to do.

This has really helped me learning to float, I hope the swimming module is coming soon. It's a really helpful series.

Very useful information. Thank you sir!

Thank you so much frank!

A v good video addressing all the probelms I have very slowly n good video assistance

Don't know why? I cannot bend the knees when floating on the front. Both knees seems tying by the water! I have been trying for many times over the past few years but still fail. I am now 65. Hope to make it before 70!

Very helpful....thank you sir

How to regain the standing position?! It's what i try to.do but i'm blocked...by fear?!

these were the most helpful tips i came across and has helped me float properly..but my problem is when i try to glide pushing off from the walls, i am going sideways and not gliding in a straight line..i dont know what I am doing wrong..

could you please show this with back float without arms as well?

Thanks

thanks it's very beneficial ur lesson but sir when my face is in the water it means I have to hold my breath not to breath in the water like candle blow

I am watching this in 2022 . Very relevant

Thanks a lot sir but l fear water ,but l like swimming

This is ok, but where is the video to stand from floating on back. That is the more difficult manouvre.

Experienced swimming teachers knows that we should not require floatation aids. So maybe Speedo ( Kelloggs etc) have some "special relationship" with our Governing Body to sell their junk that over rides the education and health and safety of our children? Almost every 10 year old in this country should be capable of swimming a mile, but it will never happen while the present management of the ASA and Sports UK are in place and in each others pockets. About 20% of children are traumatised and have a fear of water for life due to poorly qualified swimming teachers and lives are lost every week because the ASA have failed to teach our nation to swim. The ASA actually blocked a survey that would have confirmed these dreadful figures. But I expected nothing less!
