it's been a week I cannot float everyone else as a beginner are floating and moved to a next step of kicking it was really depressing for me as my legs start sinking when I try to float,coach says that it's because you tense your body.I searched thousands of video and then finally found this,it should help.Thanks from the bottom of the 💓.Lots of love from India

@easyflowing 4 года назад

Keep at it and you'll float. If your legs are sinking, it means that you are not contracting your core muscles correctly, in addition to not relaxing other muscle groups. This video should be able to help, because in it, I give exercises that focus on your issue (we are talking about floating on your back, right?): ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QbPbP3FED9Q.html

Also, it sounds like you have a fear of water, too and it doesn't allow you to relax. In this video series, I worked with my student from India, who was able to swim in deep open water in just 10 lessons. I think that you may benefit from it: Swimming Lessons In Open Water.

Also, the body needs to be prepared physically for swimming. If you practice these exercises in the water, you'll find learning to swim much easier: Strength Exercises In Water For Balance And Swimming: ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJmib-12WS1zD7KncCryC3pp

@Samantha Check out the exercises I suggested in this comment thread. I hope they are able to help you.

Yes, I still instinctively have fear of water and that is why I'm surfing UTUB to find any way not having aquaphobia.Luckily, I got it today.Thanks Ma'am!

@easyflowing 6 лет назад

I am glad that you want to fall in love with water! My playlist First Steps To Swimming will be of great help.

@lindaharris534 5 лет назад

I am terrified of water. Watched your video about relaxing in water. You explain it so calmly. I wish you could give me lessons

@easyflowing 5 лет назад

I am glad that you found my video calming. I just started editing and uploaded a first video from my Open Water series: Swimming Lessons In Open Water. A Fearful Guy From India Learns To Swim. Full Lesson 1 of 14 ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-UsgysbYR9IQ.html These series might be very beneficial for you. Another thing, dreams come true. I am in New York and available for private lessons ❤️🤗

@limliangxuan1909 Год назад

Hi thanks for the video. I also take swimming lessons and initially I am so scared of water and so nervous that I had much difficulty breathing, my coach also observe that I am so nervous in water and can affect your swim, she told me I need to relax before I can swim. I was clueless on how to relax. After watching your videos, I had learn the correct way of breathing which is crucial to swim. Because of that, I am no longer nervous of water and I can swim more confidently and I enjoy swimming even more. At first, I also find breathing quite stressful, it take me 2 months to be completely relaxed. It is just a matter of time. My coach is now very happy with my progress

@easyflowing Год назад

Your progress in swimming is very exciting, congratulations! I am happy my videos were helpful to you in your practice! Thank you very much for letting me know ❤️ What are you working on these days?

@haileyclemmons8333 3 года назад

I’m on swim team and I’m about to move up to the faster lane, but I really need to be less tense when swimming. My coaches have told me that I am tense when I swim so hopefully this works.

@easyflowing 3 года назад

It's one of the things that can work. If you are tense, it means that you still have a fear of water, even if it's subconscious. These exercises help my clients: Strength Exercises In Water For Balance And Swimming: ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJmib-12WS1zD7KncCryC3pp Also, correct breathing is important. First two videos in this playlist talk about it: Breathing For Beginner Swimmers: ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJnryxxTNOUw0nUQvLa391F2

@easyflowing 2 года назад

You most likely have a fear of water or a subconscious fear of water.

You might benefit from watching my client going from fear of water to being comfortable in deep open water: Fear of Water (Lessons in Open Water): ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJmZhWlFRqkpHdQOdy_eNzGC

@itssamii162 2 года назад

@@easyflowing but I like the water

@easyflowing 2 года назад

Yes, that's why I mentioned the subconscious fear. Since the body tenses up, it means there's something going on you might not remember or might not be able to pinpoint. If you do the exercises from my playlist, your body will start relaxing little by little. You can see them in practice in my playlist with Akram.

Hey....I started learning swimming before 6 days .I am unable to float without a floater ,i can glide with the help of floater and kick borad but when i start kicking my body doesn't move forward and my coach said that my legs , abdomen and shoulders becomes regid when i start to kick ( even with the support of pool wall )and I might have fear of water but I just love water even I enjoyed scuba diving a lot with a guide. Plz tell me how to overcome this !!! Being water lover and not able to swim really frustrates me.

@easyflowing 6 месяцев назад

Hi! You see, I start with teaching my students in a vertical position and go into a streamline position when their bodies are ready strengthwise. You can do these exercises on your own to prepare your body for swimming: Strength Exercises In Water For Balance And Swimming: ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJmib-12WS1zD7KncCryC3pp Some videos are without sound, I have to figure out how to fix it.

@LaloGómez-o6i Месяц назад

Hi, i think she's like me, i learn whit a personal trainer, not in a group, maybe you need someone by your side, a guide,a teacher,a trainer into the water with you, you can do it .

@JMEGUENI 2 года назад

This is my Problem! I'm so tense i attended many swimming classes and tried many exercises to relax ,i consider them all failed still can not float, I'm 52 and still trying.

@easyflowing 2 года назад

I am glad that you keep trying. If you get really good at these exercises, your body will be able to relax in the water because it will feel more balance: Strength Exercises In Water For Balance And Swimming: ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJmib-12WS1zD7KncCryC3pp I used most of these ⬆️ exercises while teaching Akram in this playlist: Fear of Water (Lessons in Open Water): ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJmZhWlFRqkpHdQOdy_eNzGC

Thank you a lot , please , more help about how to be relax , I'd love to swim .Water beautiful picture I love it .

@easyflowing 6 лет назад

Thank you for your comment. I would suggest to do all of the exercises from my First Steps To Swimming playlist ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJn7jCl1Senai_MSqN6s7hGp You need to learn to trust the water and your body needs to find balance in it. Do ALL of these exercises at least 3 times a week, 3 sets of 6 to 10 repetitions (after you have gotten a clearance from your doctor). Then, please, let me know about your progress and about other concerns you might still have.

@constantiawong Год назад

I have a fear of water going into my eyes while swimming and I couldn’t open my eyes underwater no matter what. Do you have any advice?

@easyflowing Год назад

Is it a fear of pain in the eyes from the water or something else?

@easyflowing Год назад

Just in case, here's how I open my eyes under water: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jrhTCr4lwDg.html I do prefer to use goggles, though.

@constantiawong Год назад

No, just opening them underwater makes me panic

@easyflowing Год назад

Do you panic with goggles or without them on?

@constantiawong Год назад

Just without them

@ingridb.1209 6 месяцев назад

Imagine being scared to the water and learning how to swim? Yeah I can relax...

Hello mam how are you?I m from India and we are in Lockdown for 21 days due to Cornona Virus Spread.Pls you too take care of yourself in your country.If available take giloy(check online),it boosts immunity along with Vit.C.

@easyflowing 4 года назад

Hello @Arpit Tiwari I am glad to hear that you are fine, even though you are on lockdown. We are trying to stay inside, too. Although I am looking forward to warmer weather, in order to get in the lake. I'll research giloy, thank you for your suggestion. How's overall emotional state in India?

@easyflowing 4 года назад

I looked it up. It sounds very interesting! How do YOU use it? Only internally?

@ARPIT-gm3lw 4 года назад

@@easyflowing Yes mam.We make its juice and drink it.Its also available readymade if someone can't get the raw Giloy.i heard that having strong immune system can save us and in general giloy is excellent in increasing immunity.You must have heard about Ramdev baba(yog guru/Patanjali),he conducted experiments and found that another herb known as "Ashwagandha" is extremely useful for Corona virus.i m not sure about thier claims but in general theses Indian herbs are excellent in all terms.If you can't get them in USA you may use anything which has high Vit.C or E.

It's alright saying learn to relax but if you can't relax because you don't trust the water to for instance bring you to the surface if you jump in how can you relax.

@easyflowing 5 лет назад

It is a great point! I would never ask anyone who is afraid of water 1. to jump in, 2. in deep water. That is why I have this playlist: First Steps to Swimming ru-vid.com/group/PLlni5Zb5tjJn7jCl1Senai_MSqN6s7hGp This playlist is for people who are afraid of water. These exercises teach the body balancing in water in preparation for swimming. I never start teaching beginners with actual swimming.

@bananalol3619 Год назад

I always panic 😢

@easyflowing Год назад

Do you panic in shallow water, too or only in deep water?

@kritinanishwajoka5423 2 года назад

I don't feel like a have the fear of water but my coach says that my muscles in the back are titening up which is making me sink I will try this today

@easyflowing 2 года назад

Uncontrollable muscle tension during a swimming lesson is a tell-tale sign of a fear of water, even if it is a subconscious fear. I agree with your swimming teacher.

@easyflowing 2 года назад

Now my dad says who is a really good swimmer that it's because i exercised a lot and that's why my muscles in the back are tightening up and I guess that true because normally also they are really tight.
