What Parents Say
I’d pay double now that I see the results… [my youngest] has acquired skills at 2 that took [my oldest] 8 summers.

Things You Might Be Thinking About…
Will my little bug cry during lessons?
Probably some, yes — and that's okay. Learning something new and unfamiliar is hard, especially for little ones who can't yet understand why. What I can promise is that every lesson is designed with your child's emotional safety in mind alongside their physical safety. ISR's methodology is carefully sequenced so children build confidence as they build skills. Most kids who start out resistant become kids who don't want to get out of the pool. The short-term tears are worth the lifetime of safety.
What if they don’t finish after six weeks?
We keep going until your bug can at minimum find a float from any angle of entry into the water. Every bug is different, and I’ve had bugs get swimming in 3 weeks of lessons and others in 8. Sometimes things happen and families can’t make lessons anymore - that’s alright. We will work on a schedule to pick up where we left off. Sometimes I will even encourage a break for you if needed. A full 6 week session (24 lessons) plus 7th week free is included in your price. Beyond that is $110 a week. A common obstacle that delays completion by 7 weeks is swimming outside of lessons.
Is this safe for my infant?
ISR has been teaching survival swimming for over 50 years and has delivered more than 15 million lessons worldwide. Before your child's first lesson, I collect detailed health information through ISR's national registration process so that every lesson is tailored to be safe for your specific child. I'm also trained to read your child's cues and adjust accordingly. No two lessons look exactly the same because no two kids are the same.
What if we miss a day?
Can my bug swim outside of lessons during their session?
The biggest progression slower is swimming outside of lessons. Every time your bug is in the pool, some kind of skill will be reinforced. I will be teaching your bug to be horizontal/face in on the water. But if outside of lessons they are in the pool with noodles, floaties, kickboards, etc that keep their head out of the water and their legs vertical, our lesson progression will be zero or very little. Like mentioned above, every time your bug is in the pool -something is being reinforced in their muscle memory. If your family absolutely cannot keep your bug out of the pool, please let me know and we will do an early parent lesson so you can practice their new skills (without any floatation devices) correctly!
Life with little bugs is unpredictable — I get it. If your child is under the weather, you shoot me a text. ISR is full of awesome protocols for everything, from ear infections to rashes. For other missed lessons, we'll do our best to work around it, but please know that consistency is a big part of why ISR works. The more consistent we can be, the faster your child progresses. Lessons canceled by me are always made up. Reach out and we'll figure it out together.
What age is too young — or too old?
Lessons start at 6 months old, as long as your child can sit unassisted. There's no upper age limit — ISR is a method that any age responds to and every age group learns skills appropriate to where they are developmentally. If you have a toddler or preschooler and you're wondering if you've missed your window, you haven't. Or if you have a senior in your life that wants to learn to float, they could learn, too! Reach out and we'll find the right fit for your bug.
Do you travel to home pools?
Potentially! Depending on your and my schedule, pool location, pool conditions, and how many bugs will be learning. There is an additional $150-$300 per student travel fee based on distance. For a large family or group of neighbors looking to skill as many bugs as possible in one go, this can be a great option to save drive time each lesson day.
Is this one and done? What happens after a session?
My bug is nervous around water. Can they still do ISR?
Absolutely — in fact, this is exactly the kind of child ISR was designed for. A child who is fearful near water is a child who needs these skills the most. I've worked with hesitant kids and I know how to move slowly and build trust before we ever ask them to do something hard. You don't need a water-loving kid to start. You just need to show up.
Think of swimming like learning to play the piano. If you don’t touch one for 8 months, you probably wouldn’t play perfectly that first time back you sat down. After the session, I recommend practicing. And not only scheduling swimming with me monthly or more, but also with you as their adult! We will do a parent lesson and I will show you some tips on how to maintain skills. Making your bug swim and float a few minutes at the start of a swim time is a great opportunity to make sure their life-saving skills stay intact. The muscle memory will always be there, but it will just take longer to uncover when it is needed. If your bug goes months without swimming, you’ll need to periodically schedule a week or more with me to get their ISR life-saving form back to shape, especially before big vacations or summer break.
Not ready for lessons yet, but still want your bug safer near water?
