I'm 33 years old and a little afraid to swim. But I'm decided to conquer my fear, so I hope I can swim through your video. Thanks 😊

Jonny, I believe Pamela's quick Progression early in the shoot is also a result of her previous study & application of your material. She gave herself a Sound Knowledge Base before coming to you. PLUS, the Presence of a GOOD Swim Coach has the Potential to BUILD any beginner's/learner's Confidence.

Thank you for the wonderful videos! It is inspiring to see an adult like Pamela gain so much knowledge so quickly with professional swimming lessons!

Great video. I like that it was a longer video to allow us to see more progress of her progress than a short video would allow.

great video. your teachings were up to the point and your pupil was amazing. i love this format, thanks.

Good Idea everyone needs to learn swimming is the #1 beautiful sport in the world ❤

My 2 sons started swim lessons yesterday with 0 experience. Lessons were only 45 mins & 30 mins in my 8 y.o. was jumping in!! A little more difficult for my 5 y.o.

Awesome job , thankful for all your information. Have a wonderful holiday coming . ❤from MN.

So cool! Great work man. Hope you're doing well. Thanks to your videos I was able to float in the ocean in Jamaica while watching the sunset. 🙌🏾.

Thanks a lot for this video ! I saw myself in this woman and I'm really exited to aplicate the advices that you gave now. I'm about to start swiming everyday at 7am and your videos really support me !

Very good & clear explanations on freestyle swimming 🏊‍♀️ I really appreciated your effort & energy. You have given me inspirations. Thank you ❤✅️✅️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️🏊‍♀️✅️✅️

Very informative training. Thank you for sharing.

I can easily understand the steps to learn swimming...they are very specific and clear ..thank you

My wife teaches swimming. She love you program.❤

Thank you for sharing video. ❤

You are a very good coacher! loving your teaching, and it helps me a lot. not swimming fast at the beginning, but swimming well.

That was very helpful 😊

🤣🤣🤣🤣 those last moments in the cinema I came to realize was not Johnny but Pamela as I had close observation! You know what? The skills looks the same level now!🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 Grate!!!! Real Rocket Swimmers!

The advice R gives is informative and his tips help improve your technique : )

She has learnt a lot in just one day

So proud of her

Pam did an awesome job...and you too Johnny ❤

This was very helpful, for people who doesn't know how to swim, im a kid so this was helpful but I was wondering if you have a video for kids! Thanks for the amazing content ❤❤

Amazing content! Thanks for sharing! I also believe we all can swim, the trick is speeding up getting comfortable in water. That's what we do with "How to Swim 2.0" It's never too late and it shouldn't have to take dozens of visits and hundreds of dollars to get comfortable in water and deep water. See you in the deep end.

thanks a lot for your time,

thanks, I have been afraid of water since I'm 7 years old, but this video chased my fears away and learned how to swim thanks for this awesome video.

My wife teaches swimming. She love you program.

Great video. Going to beach to work on these moves.

I would like to see you teach an adult who doesn’t know how to swim. That would tell me there’s hope for me

Extremely helpful, informative video keep up the amazing work, and your pupil was learning quicker as well.

I wish you live in NZ I have swimming test soon for flight attended job and I can’t find private swimming instructor in Auckland NZ. Your video helped me a lot thanks 👍🏻👍🏻

omg thank you so much

Thank you for the wonderful video. I would like to know two things from you. Does a freestyle swimmer need to accelerate in the last portion of the pull phase? How much gap between the fingers is best for the freestyle swimmer?

I love kickboard

Thank you for sharing it is very very help menu on this vedio so please please keep it up 🙏🙏🙏😇😇😇💐💐💐🇬🇧🇬🇧🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟

Thanks coach Johnny Rackett. I have follow your great advices you have wrote me. I have a personal swimming coach who's teach me in deep pool and given me confident to swimm, whit a bit progress. I'm still have in my mind, the safety mood swimming near the wall. But i can allowance in short distance.

Great teacher. I wish i vould do that. Thanks for telling myself to be patient. I'll try sgain thanks Pamela you guve ne hooe at 75😅

Although this is beginner freestyle video but the acquiring such skills stretches from day 1 to around 1-2 months minimum (12 session of 1 hr each session /month) including proper breathing..for an average adult...(Fins are good so that you can concentrate on improving your other skills (such as stroke, timing, breathing, catch, torso, head movement, etc) but end of the day bad for achieving the same speed when you go back to your bare feet, only practicing on bare foot later will improve your natural swimming technique.)

you are the best

Thank you for the wonderful videos. I am having trouble with my swim lessons, keeping my legs up without using fins. Any suggestions and I want to come to Austin Texas

Hi coach, Great video, and what a lovely setting to learn to swim in!! I just have a question about practice. I am a beginner who has only had about 9 half hour (weekly) lessons so far. At present I only get to practice for another hour or so each week. How can I maximise my practice sessions? Should I work on multiple things (e.g. arms/kicking/breathing) or one thing? I seem to be working on multiple things and don't seems to be getting anywhere. I still cannot side breathe and have to stop when I run out of air. Many thanks!

Do you still do swimming classes

I like watches these videos. The pool is beautiful! I see it has a diving platform but it’s not deep enough..?

Hello, thank you for the video, but I have a question, 100% results

I’m a beginning and my biggest problem is that side breathe

She can really swim at a nice pace.

I hope my trainer is like you.. been practicing free style and i still dont improve🙁 I am frustrated.. I find it very hard.

Which state you’re Bro amazing teachings tips

Thanks for the video. Tbh, I hate using a kickboard. When I first took swimming lessons, I noticed that I was just staying at one spot while kicking in water. Later my instructor told me that I had to kick really hard and my feet should make some visible splashes on the water in order for me to move. In another instance I was asked to use the kickboard and move to the middle of the pool and then turn to swim back to the starting point. Surely, I didn't know how to turn (I don't think I know even now) and thus when I reached the middle of the pool and attempted to turn back, I couldn't and started to panic and almost drown before my instructor rescued me (The lifeguard didn't notice and was probably busy watching others -_-). I am still trying to learn to swim properly and tbh not everyone can teach. I have taken 4 courses (each about 4-8 swim lessons) but the only thing I was able to learn perfectly was the back float, standing up from back float, kickboard stuffs (which I don't like tbh), front crawl and an inefficient form of freestyle. After a lot of self-practice in the pool and watching RU-vid videos (including yours), I have managed to become a little better at freestyle (at least now I can breathe on the side while previously I wouldn't be able to except choking in water). However, I still have a long long way to go. The thing is that when I swim using freestyle method (the only one I can do), I won't make it to the end of the pool...I would say I would probably go upto 15 ft max before my heart starts beating like hell. So at that point I would need quick short breathes (like when you are excercising) and it would become very difficult for me to turn on the side and take quick breathes every now and then as you turn your head on the side for a very short period. Sometimes I wouldn't be able to take a full breath and that would cause lactic acid to build up, eventually forcing me to stop and run out of breath. Sometimes, the timing of breathing would get totally messed up...if my lungs aren't completely empty (or say mostly empty), I would not be able to take a breath on the side and it would be very difficult to regain proper rhythm of breathing afterwards. This eventually leads to fatigue and panic (esp in deep water). In short, it's like a chain reaction for me...once it starts, everything gets messed up. Thus I never dared to go to the deep end of the pool alone coz I know I will probably fail and drown. I mean if I am not able to stay afloat at the deep end of the pool, I don't think I have learnt much and it is frustrating tbh. Regarding your idea of treading in water with the body bent forward, I tried it but I am unable to do the eggbeater kick while in that position. However, I will try to use my hands more vigorously as you said that not everyone will need to use their legs. Eggbeater and breaststroke kicks are both difficult (for treading). Moreover, I don't feel safe treading in deep water yet so I usually try at the shallow end. I discovered recently (from a RU-vid video) that treading in water can also be done by bringing the knees very close to the chest and then just use sculling motion with the hands...will try that to see if it makes any difference. Could you pleae make a video on how to swim with the head high in water? I know it's probably more difficult than regular swimming strokes but I was wondering like how do some people swim easily with their heads above the water? I mean say for instance, in third world countries people in villages (including kids) know how to swim and they swim in open water and surely nobody teaches them all these techniques that we normally use...I was wondering what methods do these people apply while swimming. I would like to learn swimming not only for fun but as a prep for life-saving skills...I mean in real life scenario, everyone needs to know how to survive / swim in open water or say for instance in murky water and I am not sure just swimming in the pool would help me achieve that. Please share your insight. Thanks. N.B. The wind was interfering with the recording of the sound and thus it was difficult to understand at times what was being said in the video.

I too am a beginner at swim!
