I first learn to swim with my father at the mobile home park pool as a 7 year old. Then I took lessions in the summer time at the community pool in our area thru Red Cross. I went to a swim school to learn butterfly.
I grew up near the Delaware River in Trenton NJ and my mother took me to swim in the summers. She never gave me a lesson, just dogpaddled against the current. Never had a lesson in my life, read books, watched the better swimmers and copied them. Didn't swim laps until after I graduated from HS.
