- cogman10 5y agoIMO, it's important to take swimming classes. You never know when it'll come in handy and there are bodies of water everywhere.
- smadsen 5y agoI agree, if there is a life skill you need to have, it would be knowing how to swim.
- alach11 5y agoI also think in terms of effort vs. reward, swimming is a tremendously worthwhile skill to learn. You can become reasonably competent at swimming in 40 hours. Compare that to learning a language, which can take 1000s of hours.
- st1ck 5y ago40 hours of flashcards and practice can cover maybe 90% of your typical tourist conversations for many languages. Where are you from? What is your name? What do you do? How much does it cost? Can you give me a discount?
- gpderetta 5y agoI can swim reasonably well and I'm not particularly scared of water. They still made me extremely emotional as well. I'm the father of two small kids, and really had to force myself to watch a few of them just to get an idea to what to be on the lookout for.
