A woman has been attending mermaid school.

Andrea Ligouri has been attending a mermaid camp at the Weeki Wachee Springs in Florida, in the Southeastern United States in a bid to achieve her lifelong dream of becoming a mermaid.

In an advertisement video for the school - which teaches women how to behave like the mythical aquatic creatures - Miss Ligouri can be seen dressed complete with tail and shell bikini as she swims underwater along with other aspiring mermaids.

However, as she lack the gills needed to breath underwater, Andrea - who attended her first lesson at the camp at just 8-years-old - is instead seen puffing on an oxygen tank.
