Ok, I have been swimming for about 2 1/2 weeks now and things are going great. I am able to go for about 5 lengths of the pool without needed any kind of breather (up from 2 when I started).
I now find myself wanting to get more involved in swimming, learn all the strokes.
Here are my questions to you all:
I can only go to a class for about an hour 3 times a week. Is it reasonable to think that I can learn all the strokes well from only 3 times a week? When I played soccer I practiced about 5 times and thought that anything less would not be beneficial.
And, what kind of time frame should I expect before I can do all 4 reasonable well (I mean without being the laughing stock of your average pool)? War stories anyone??? I have been a pretty fast learner in my years of sports.
Thanks!

It's always great to learn new stuff. The hardest thing to learn will probably be fly (butterfly), back and free are easy to pick up and breaststroke well, I learned it and it took me years to be proficient in it. We are always learning and drilling to prefect strokes so relax and have fun!
