Well I have done my first practical lesson of 5. It's very much starting at the beginning and floating in a lengthened position. I really enjoyed the lesson and I'm looking forward to getting to grips with this way of swimming. It was interesting to see the video of my swimming too, I am very much a pull myself through the water swimmer as apposed to pushing through so I have big changes to make.
I have to practice this floating along before the next lesson - I am sure someone might think I'm in trouble and try to rescue me!

That's pretty hight level I think - at least I would be excluded on every count!
I would have said I was semi decent at crawl (1K in 26 mins).
Not that I want to join a club. I would love some lessons though.

The club I used to swim at would expect you to be able to swim front crawl, backstroke and breaststroke (there was some leniency on fly). The slowest lane would probably require being to able to swim 100m front crawl in under 2 mins
