Stroke count

I asked this question under workouts and got no response. hopefully better luck here. When counting strokes where do you count from? Are you counting 1 arm? or is each arm rotation counted? If I count each arm rotation it takes my 16 strokes to cover 25 yds. What should a typical stroke count be?

    Breathing or not breathing every stroke, every other stroke isn't my issue. All I know is I take 11 strokes from start to the 25 yard mark; can't help it, that's what it always is on the first start-block to 25 end pool. After that, it is 12 and doesn't change. I'm a 12-stroke 25-gal! Donna
