    Great job! I used to teach lessons at the YMCA. Every person should know how to swim. You never know when your life will depend on it.

    I learned to swim at age 10 after I saw OLYMPIC DIVERS. Since then, I love swimming and cliff diving. SO FREEING feeling yourself FLY!

    Please be careful swimming with braids. When they get wet they are extremely heavy and it’s hard to pull yourself back up onto the boat

      Thank you Alexis, that wasn’t my case, the weight wasn’t unbearable or something I’m not used to, as I’ve always spent time in water.

    You're doing wonderful things all while being your authentic self. You're doing things and exploring things most of us are afraid to try for various reasons but you are very encouraging. We took swimming lessons last summer but could use more practice because diving is something I would like to do and have those memories.

    Learning how to swim I have to say I’m encouraged to do….But girl snorkeling near a fish or shark is out of the question. I’ll just wait for pics books and movies lol. Glad to see you do it they’ll stay encouraged

    How do you protect your hair from salt water and chlorine water, do you have any tips?

    • @nikkiathomas5894
      @nikkiathomas5894 Před 2 lety +1

      There was a shampoo called RID by Nexxus that is amazing and formulated just for chlorine and works for saltwater as well. Any shampoo u normally use will be just fine for saltwater.

    NOT a responsible video...this is misleading....never tell people to take on your false sense of security in open water. In fact, experience divers should be on this. Inexperience gets the experienced killed.
