Swimming Classes I was born in Jaén, it's a tropical town, so I always saw crowded swimming pools. But I didn't learned to swim until now. I have felt scared when the swimming pool was deep, moreover a friend close to me passed away because he drowned into the river, it was a terrible shock to me. So, I have preferred to stay away from the swimming pools, rivers and seas. In spite of my fear, last year I traveled to Punta Cana in Dominican Republic, it's a paradise. I chose this place because it has beautiful beaches, crystal water and the most important it hasn't big waves, the sea is quiet. I enjoyed my trip but it would have been better if I would have known swim, beacuse there were many water sports but it required swim, so I couldn't do that. In order to overtake my fear I have decided to start my swimming classes. My first class was last week and it was really fun, the trainer told me, you need to be relax to enjoy swimming. I learn new things in each class, I make many efforts to learn quickly because I will travel to Cartagena and I want enjoy the wonderful beaches.
