Missy, I used to teach adult swimming classes (well, I really taught all different levels). I had ladies in my class that were 60 years old and afraid to put their face in the water! You are way ahead of that! Don't hesitate to get in some lessons. You know you already have half the battle won because you aren't afraid of the water, plus you can "swim", you just want to learn the proper form. Go for it! Swimming is wonderful exercise, plus it is fun!!! I have been swimming since I was 3. My mother couldn't/still can't swim and she had us learn at a very young age because she needed us to be able to save ourselves since she couldn't. I was swimming on my YMCA swim team when I was four.

You know if you don't want group lessons, you can probably find someone who would teach you privately, but it will cost more, I'm sure, but would be worth it for you to learn! It won't take much for you to nail the proper stroke and you'll be doing laps!!!

Good luck!
