Hi guys I never learned to swim as a child, and I’ve signed up for adult swim lessons soon. Something I think will help me prepare for the lessons is I don’t know the mechanics/physics behind the motion. So I’m asking
1.) how do people float in water and why is it crucial to swimming?
2.) how do people actually move from point a to b in water while swimming?
EDIT: thanks so much to all who have responded with answers, tips, advice, and encouragement! Trying to read through all your helpful answers ☺️

Don’t be intimidated. I think you are overthinking a bit, most children learning to swim don’t have the slightest clue what physics even is. Understanding the mechanics isn’t going to help I’m afraid. Good luck to you
