That was so generous of this Olympic pro to take the time to teach an absolute beginner how to swim. Wonderful segment 🏊🏾♀️

I'm so glad to see JHud swimming and encouraging people to learn how to swim. With 320,000 annual drowning deaths worldwide, drowning is the 3rd leading cause of unintentional injury death worldwide. We need more public pools and people need to learn how to swim. JHud did a great job. I ❤JHud.

@lavenberry, What adults don’t know how to swim? It’s extremely important to know how, I don’t see how someone wouldn’t know how - you kick you legs- dog paddle keep yourself above water. A skill everyone as a child should know

As an Aquatics specialist for 40 years, Ryan took her through the initial steps so well, helping her get past her fears! We can stop drownings if everyone can overcome just some of their fears and learn to swim! Congratulations JD! So proud of you!

Congratulations, Jhud!! Everyone should learn how to swim! Especially when you become a parent. Never know when you might need it. It's better to know it and not need it than to need it and not know it💜

Yessss Jennnn 🎉 👏🏾 👏🏾👏🏾 I’m 34 and I learned how to swim last year! After that Memorial Day when a little girl drowned 😔🙏🏾 at the local beach where I felt so helpless and wanted to be able to do something should I be around swimming kids in the future! Everyone should know how to swim or at least float! Even the kiddos

Thank you, Jenniffer, for this. I am encouraged. Last year March at 54, I faced my fear of water and took up swimming lessons. I will be turning 56 on 28 November and still taking the lessons. I am now comfortable in water and with water and can do all strokes, freestyle, froggie, butterfly and backstroke. Indeed, one is never too old to learn

Learning to swim even as an adult is vitally important. Dont settle for being near the water, looking cute in a swimsuit, just being in the shallow end or not even knowing how to save yourself or child if you fall in. You can take lessons at your local pool or YMCA. Lessons aren't that expensive but can save your life.
