Hi there, I have recently taken up swimming as a hobby - do you like to swim? 
I love to swim, I like it as a recreation although it can also be a sport, or even survival. I'ts nice for exercise too.
My personal favourite stroke is forward stroke, I find this the best for giving me a complete workout! Which stroke do you like the best? 
I think it's my favorite one too actually. All that matters in swimming is coordinated movements of the whole body and the limbs.
And it's low impact on your joints! I recently damaged my knee running, so I've filled the hole in my exercise plan with swimming! 
Sure! Maybe that's why in some countries swimming lessons are compulsory in the educational system. It's such a useful activity and doesn't damage the body.
Maybe! I had a swimming pool in my school when I was younger, but it wasn't compulsory - I wish that we had been made to learn to swim properly! Have you ever swum in open water?
Infant swimming
Infant swimming is the phenomenon of human babies and toddlers reflexively moving themselves through water and changing their rate of respiration and heart rate in response to being submerged. The slowing of heart rate and breathing is called the bradycardic response. It is not true that babies are born with the ability to swim, though they have reflexes that make it look like they are. Babies are not old enough to hold their breath intentionally or strong enough to keep their head above water.
Most infants, though not all,
a session knowing like, 'Okay, this is going to be a big session. I have one day. Is it gonna be a great song or not?' I remember I woke up in the morning and the whole though of my youth trying to be taken away from me [was overwhelming]. Not youth as in my age—youth as in my love, my happiness, my joy, my purity. It's not even about age; you could be 50 and your youth is there,
