Just want to share that you do not have to take a swimming lesson to learn how to swim. You can learn from a book! I didn't even buy a book, I borrowed it.
There are books that will provide you with step to step details on swimming techniques and styles, which includes photos that you can refer to. Once you have found the book, read it and imagine doing it in the water. Keep on reading again and again and imagine doing it. Just try to remember important details such as the breathing techniques and how you should be moving your hands and legs under water.
When you actually get in the water, with all the information in your head, all you have to do is just to practice it. Keep on trying, look at how other people around you are doing it. Wear your goggles and peep under water to look at their hands, legs and body movements. Concentrate, be brave and do not give up. That's how I learnt swimming. I still have problem doing the free style and I am still working on it.
If you do not know how to swim yet, go get a book and start now. If you do not have access to a swimming pool, at least you can try it the next time you go for a vacation with your family.
Other must haves when you go swimming are swimming suit (track pants and shirt is a NO NO), cap and a pair of goggles.
Good Luck and all the best!!
