The ISR Water Self-Rescue program is for children 6 months to 6 years of age.
​ It is a progressive style of teaching and is scheduled 5 days per week,
​Monday through Friday, for up to 10 minutes each day. 
Sessions are in 4 week intervals.

With a focus on safe, individualized, one-on-one lessons, The ISR program has an emphasizes on the child's health with an ongoing evaluation to deliver the most effective and safest swimming & water self-rescue lessons in the industry.


ISR Session - ages 1 - 6 years
Lessons for children 1-6 years who are walking and running, focus on learning the
Swim-Float-Swim survival sequence.  Children learn to swim with their head down,
roll onto their backs to float, rest and breathe, then flip back over to resume
swimming until they reach safety, where they can crawl out or in other
circumstances, be rescued.  If a student needs more than the
4 week session, we will evaluate the student at the end of the session
to determine how many weeks they will need. 

Swim-Float-Swim   (4-8 weeks M-F)


ISR Session - ages 6 month - 12/14 months
Lessons for children 6-12+ months who are sitting up and/or crawling, focus on
learning the Roll-Back-To-Float sequence.  Children learn to roll onto their backs to
float, rest and breathe, and to be able to maintain this life-saving position until help arrives.  
Roll-Back-To-Float (approx 4 weeks M-F )


ISR Refreshers
Refresher lessons are extremely important in continuing and maintaining your child's ISR Water Self-Rescue® skill development. Children grow and develop rapidly from infants to toddlers and young children. This development process represents improved strength, coordination, and amore finely tuned cognitive ability. In accordance with this gro
wth, children enrolled in ISR return periodically to participate in a refresher course. 
Refresher Lessons   (1-2 weeks M-F)


ISR Maintenance Lessons
Maintenance lessons can be scheduled one, or two times per week to maintain
your child's ISR Water Self-Rescue skills

Statistics indicate that most children who fall into water are fully clothed. Therefore, once they have learned their water self-rescue skills, they will practice their ISR skills fully clothed.

About ISR 
Founded in 1966 by Dr. Harvey Barnett, ISR is now the global leader in the industry it pioneered: survival swimming lessons for infants and young children. Our team of nearly 450 highly trained ISR Instructors provides the safest and most effective survival swimming lessons available. The ISR Self-Rescue® instruction our students receive today is the product of over 45 years of research and achieves unparalleled results.
Today, our mission, “Not One More Child Drowns,” is the foundation of everything we do and is the driving force behind ISR’s employees, our independent ISR Instructors, and our major corporate partnerships. We believe the successful prevention of the leading cause of accidental death for children under the age of 4 in the U.S. will require a large group of caring and capable professionals whose sole focus is to save lives. To date, we have delivered more than 8,000,000 ISR Self-Rescue® lessons and saved more than 800 lives.
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 the over 4,000 drowning deaths per year bear a grim testament to the fact that traditional approaches are missing a key component: the child. ISR’s core conviction is that the child is the most important part of a drowning prevention strategy and our over 300,000 ISR graduates and 800 documented survival stories are proof that children can save themselves. Children are curious, capable, and have an uncanny ability to overcome obstacles like pool fences; at ISR we take that ability and teach them skills to potentially save themselves if they find themselves in the water alone.
