Going beyond traditional swimming Instruction, ISR teaches aquatic survival techniques designed to help a child survive should they reach the water alone. For more than 45 years, ISR's proven, Self-Rescue™ program has and continues to provide:
Safety: ISR's number one priority for your child. Prior to beginning lessons, your child's unique medical history is reviewed by a team of medical professionals to identify any potential health issues that may affect your child's lessons and safety
Parent Education: Your child is not the only one learning during lessons. ISR's program includes comprehensive parent education on aquatic safety and drowning prevention.
Results: Each ISR Instructor safely and gently guides your child through the process of mastering his/her survival skills. The protocols and ongoing education your instructor receives ensures that your child will be able to demonstrate the developmentally appropriate survival sequence, including a rollback-to-float and/or a swim-float-swim.
Qualified Instructors: Each certified ISR instructor completes a rigorous, 8-week In-water and academic training course and participates In highly specialized annual recertification to maintain the highest level of safety and caliber of instruction.
Infant Swimming Resource's Self-Rescue™ survival swimming program Is a 6-8 week course, scheduled 4 days per week, Monday through Thursday for a maximum of 10 minutes each day.
Children may begin lessons at 6 months of age until 6 years of age. Lessons for infants and early toddlers focus on teaching the child to roll onto their back to float, rest, and breathe, and to be able to maintain this life-saving position until help arrives.
Lessons for older toddlers and children focus on teaching the swim, float, swim sequence. Children learn to swim with their head down, roll onto their back to float, rest, and breathe; and flip-over to resume swimming until they reach the side of the pool, where they can either crawl out or until they can be rescued.
Once the children are fully skilled, they will practice ISR's survival techniques fully clothed during lessons.
It is recommended that the children complete refresher lessons to help their In-water skill level grow with their physical development.
