THE WATER WORLD

Swimming As a newbie, you start where water is at knee-level-taga tuhod. Places like ilang Matsi, ilang Silay and ilang Odon were among the favourites. Then you progress to waist-level-taga hawak. This is where you learn swimming. Swimming to us though, means the ability to float. Start by launching your body from under water with both feet then propel yourself with both arms and feet. Downstream first, then across and eventually upstream. Opss ... I almost forgot, your nose should be above water.
