In recent years, our country has recorded many cases of people drowning. As we all know, knowing how to swim is vital for safety! It is not just for your own safety. Sometimes you can use your knowledge of swimming to help other people as well.

- It is the most common reason if we were asked why we learn how to swim.
2) Health
- Swimming is an exercise. It is a sport.
- This activity engages a lot of muscle groups. Therefore, it is an incredible body workout.
- It burns calories. Thus, it is good for people to lose weight.
3) Fun

- It would not be fun if you just sit there in the corner, while your friends are enjoying the cool pool.
- Learn to swim, and go on and have fun!
