One of the main causes of not being able to tread water is fear. People have a subconscious fear that they are going to sink. This leads to tension and a lack of breath control which in turn leads to exhaling too much making you sink even more.

Key points:
  1. skulling in place

  2. Emptying your air

  3. Floating in place

It may take a bit of time but as you practice this more often you will eventually float because you will allow the water to support you 100 per cent.

Treading water has everything to do with buoyancy. You need to understand the level of air that is needed to help you to sit up higher on the surface of the water and maintain that position.
