Your swimming learning steps are the best

I want to thank you, first, for the wonderful knowledge you are sharing for learning to swim in shallow water.

I was able today, to swim a 25m distance, using your method of back swimming with relaxed breathing, and mixed free style with flip to back for breathing. I did wear a nose clip, to avoid getting water thru nose, but I will try without it in the future.

I took swimming lessons, with a local training instructor, around 20h by now, but breathing is my problem with free style method. Either I cannot raise my head enough, or if I am able to open my mouth, I take very small amount of air, or no air at all. If I get a brief breath, I cannot hold it until the next breathing cycle.

Fortunately, I can breath on my back.

In the relaxed front float, my legs sink to about 45 degree, and my head circumference measure around 63cm. Not sure that might be a reason why it is hard for me to breath when facing down or aside.
