What Your Child Will Learn During ISR Lessons
Infant Swim Resource Techniques
ISR’s unique results are achieved through fully customized, safe and effective, one-on-one lessons with only your child and the Instructor in the water. What your child will learn, and the way he or she will learn it, is what makes ISR so different from traditional swimming lessons. Always putting safety first, ISR emphasizes competence, which leads to confidence, and provides the foundation for a lifetime of enjoyment in and around the water.
What your child will learn depends on his or her age and developmental readiness, but in all cases, at minimum, your child will learn to roll onto his or her back to float, rest, and breathe, and to maintain this position until help arrives.
Children 6 months old to 12 months old
Generally speaking, children ages 6 months to 1 year old learn the ISR Self-Rescue® skill of rolling onto their backs to float, rest and breathe. They learn to maintain this position until help arrives.
Children 1 year old to 6 years old
Older, more mobile children will learn the full ISR Self-Rescue® sequence of swimming until they need air, rotating onto the back to float, then rolling back over to continue swimming. ISR students are taught to repeat this sequence of swim/float/swim.
About ISR

The ISR Self-Rescue® instruction students receive today is the product of over 45 years of research and achieves unparalleled results. Nationally, more than 8 million ISR Self-Rescue® lessons have been taught, which have saved more than 800 lives. based on documented survival stories. ISR believes pool fences, supervision, and pool alarms are important parts of a necessary multi-layered approach to drowning prevention. However, traditional lines of defense break down, and ISR’s core conviction is that child survival swim is the most important part of a drowning prevention strategy.
