[QUOTE="freelance52, post: 152794, member: 28396"] hello anniep. Thanks for your support. I know what you mean about school P. E. experiences: my gym teacher looms large in my nightmares; she was just a bully in shorts and a tracksuit :!: However, do give the gym a try. Is there a 'women only' gym or gym session near you? That might help you to get over the threshhold. Or you could try swimming :?: When I first decided to try swimming I went to the over-50's session (you might be too young for that) as I thought that I might be able to just 'blend in to the background' and that older people would be less likely to point and laugh :!: :!: That gave me the confidence to go to other sessions so now I go to the 'over 50's', 'women only' and 'adult only' sessions 'cos once you're actually submerged, no-one can tell how big you are and I just swim up and down for 40 lengths and then get out. Go on my own, don't talk to other swimmers, just get in, swim and get out. Do let me know how you get on. freelance. [/QUOTE]
