That’s the ultimate “Catch-22” of the pool world, isn’t it? It’s hard to blame them, though—jumping into the deep end without the basics is less “fun summer activity” and more “unintentional survival training.”
If they’re looking to change that, here is the standard “path to treading water” for most beginners:
Acclimatization: Just getting used to the sensation of water on the face and ears without panicking.
Bubbles & Breathing: Learning how to exhale underwater so you don’t accidentally inhale the pool.
The “Dead Man’s Float”: Realizing that the human body is naturally buoyant (with enough air in the lungs).
The Kick: Learning that legs are the primary engine.

Why it’s worth the effort
Aside from the obvious safety benefits, swimming is one of the few sports that feels like being in space—total low-impact freedom. Plus, it’s a bit of a bummer to be the only one holding the towels while everyone else is playing Marco Polo.
