WHAT IS ISR?

Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) is a specialized water safety program designed for children aged 6 months and older. It focuses on teaching essential survival skills, including self-rescue and water safety, in a calm and nurturing environment.

Children can begin lessons at the age of six months ( and independently sitting) through school age. At the age of six months to 15 months a child learns the essential survival skill of rolling to their back to float and breathe until help arrives. At the age of 15 months and up, the child learns not only the rollback to float survival skill but also the swim float swim sequence. The purpose of ISR lessons are to equip the child with the necessary survival skills should they ever find water unattended or in an aquatic emergency.

ISR uses sensorimotor learning, which is best accomplished by short and frequent lessons. The student comes to lessons 10 minutes per day, four days per week and for seven weeks in duration.

Students are taught breath control, rollback to float and the swim float swim sequence. These skills are all mastered within the seven week session.

This team of ISR instructors and Registered Nurses will approve or deny your child for lessons. They also provide any necessary modifications and protocols for me to follow as their instructor.
