Dear John,

I hope my email finds you in good health. I am excited to know that you are planning to learn a new sport.

I am well aware that you’re quite active and already play a couple of sports. As the summer is approaching and you do like water activities, thus I would suggest you to learn swimming. Apart from this, I do remember, it was in your wishlist too.

Dear buddy, as you are staying in Sector-21 Noida, so I would recommend you to visit Sector-25 sports club opposite Adobe office. It is near to your apartment and people have given good reviews about the club amenities. In addition to it, life guards are always present near pool during swimming hours along with three certified coaches. Therefore, they can teach you swimming without compromising with safety.

Moreover, as I have gained extra calories during this winter, I am also planning to learn swimming during this summer. Swimming is a full body exercise, it can help me to have toned body while learning a new sport that I always wanted to learn. Therefore, we can learn it together and can make lifelong memories while becoming competent to swim without guidance.

I am waiting for your yes to grasp this skill as a joint endeavour. Give my regards to uncle and aunt.

Yours lovingly,

[YOUR NAME]
