Swim Lessons

One-on-One Survival Swim Instruction

Every child is unique. Our individualized, private ISR lessons are tailored to your child's unique needs, pace, and personality. We provide focused attention on your child, helping them learn self-rescue skills step-by-step while building confidence as they go!

Refreshers for Returning Swimmers

Children grow and develop rapidly during early childhood, and their swim skills need to adjust as they grow. Refresher lessons are shorter sessions, designed for students who have already completed ISR lessons and need to keep their skills fresh. These classes reinforce their survival skills, adjust for growth and changes in their proportions, and keep your little one confident and capable in the water year after year.

Maintenance Lessons for Practice

Maintenance lessons provide continued practice for children following their initial ISR lessons. Regularly scheduled weekly or even monthly lessons help keep your child's skills fresh while supporting long-term confidence and safety. Contact us to see what maintenance schedule makes sense for your little one!
FAQs
How can you teach babies and young children to swim?
ISR instructors teach infants to swim by honoring each child's individual strengths and experiences. They understand the fundamentals of the behavioral sciences, child development and of sensori-motor learning as it relates to the acquisition of aquatic survival skills; they use this education to guide each child through the sequence of learning to swim and float.
Will my child fear the water because of lessons?
There is an important difference between being fearful and being apprehensive because you are not yet skilled in a new environment. ISR is not like traditional swim lessons; it is a drowning prevention program that teaches survival swimming. Sometimes as a parent, you make choices for your child’s safety, like sitting in a car seat, because you know they are important. The same can be said for ISR. Fun can be defined as when skill meets challenge. Once competent in their skills, many children cannot be dragged away from the pool. They are having entirely too much FUN.
Why does it take an average of 6 weeks for my child to learn this?
The 6-week average is an estimate that is based on the average time in which it takes most children to learn these survival skills. Every child is unique and ISR’s Self- Rescue program is specifically designed based on your child’s individual strengths and needs. It is important to realize that this is an average which means that some children will actually finish more quickly while others will need more practice. ISR is dedicated to safety and, therefore, we want to provide your child with the time and best opportunity to become proficient in his/her survival skills. We will always honor your child’s needs.
How is it that babies can learn to respond to the danger of water when they fall in?
A baby does not need to perceive danger or be afraid to respond appropriately to being underwater. If a baby has learned to roll over and float when he needs air, he doesn't need to perceive danger in order to respond in this manner. He needs skill, practice and confidence to calmly deal with the situation.
