fear of water

Question
hello sir, i want to learn but u'm frightened of water. can you give me few tips on getting rid of fear for water????

Answer
I wish there was an easy way.  Everyone has a natural fear of the water.  The best way to get over a fear of the water is to get in the water.  Stay in the shallow part, where you can touch the bottom, and practtice floating or just splash around.  Just remember to stay where you are comfortable. Don't panic and remember to stay where you are comfortable.  As you get used to being in a shallow area, move to a little deeper area and take time to adjust there.
Take your time and good luck.
