Lessons That I Offer

For students 6 years old and under, I offer ISR Self-Rescue™ lessons. Students 7+ qualify for ISR or Traditional lessons. Students that are fully skilled in ISR Self Rescue™ may qualify to sign up for Refresher, Maintenance or Stroke lessons. Read below to find out more.

ISR Self-Rescue™ Lessons

  • Infant Swimming Resource’s Self-Rescue™ program, teaches children, generally from 6 months to 6 years of age, how to survive if they were to reach the water alone.

  • ISR Self-Rescue™ Lessons for 6-12 month old Child: child will learn to roll onto their back to float, rest and breathe, and to be able to maintain this lifesaving position until help arrives.

  • Swim-Float-Swim Lessons for 1-6 year old Child: child will learn the swim-float-swim survival sequence: swim with their head down; roll onto their back to float, rest, and breathe; and roll back over to resume swimming until they reach the side of the pool, where they can either crawl out or until they can be rescued.

  • Students older than 6 years old may also participate in ISR lessons if desired.

  • Students attend lessons Monday-Friday for ten minutes each day for 6-8 weeks.

Traditional Swim Lessons

  • Available for students 7+ years old.

  • Some skills that we will practice include, but are not limited to: general understanding of water safety for both students and parents, breath control, the beginnings of rolling back to float and the swim-float-swim sequence, turning to grab the wall and pulling themselves out of the water onto the deck.
