John Legend is almost ready for the deep end!
The singer, 40, is taking swim lessons for the first time since he was 5 years old.
“I’m definitely not where I need to be, but I’m much better than where I was, and it’s only been a couple months now,†he tells PEOPLE. “I’m excited. It’s so much fun to learn and to feel much more confident in the pool.â€
Legend says that he didn’t want to feel restricted due to not knowing how to swim.
“I was never afraid to go in the pool, but I was afraid to go in the deep end,†he explains. “I’m happy that I’m able to live with less fear and be able to swim with my kids. It just opens up a lot more opportunities. I just want to be comfortable in any water settings. So if we’re out on a boat on the ocean, if we’re in a pool, no matter where we are.â€

Swimmer, Olympic Gold Medalist Katie Ledecky, Makes a Dream Come True
Julia, from Harrisburg, NC, has a smile that will light up a room and a backstroke that will intimidate her best competitors. As a swimmer for most of her life, the water is definitely her “happy placeâ€. Suddenly Julia suffered a rare stroke that caused severe trauma to her brain. This life-altering trauma impaired her short-term memory and balance. Not only did she have to come out of the water, she also had to take a step back from routines like school and driving. She has grown leaps and bounds since the stroke and has returned to swimming and even started coaching with some of her extra time. Julia’s ultimate sports dream would be to meet her role-model, Olympic gold medalist swimmer, Katie Ledecky.
