ISR Swim Lessons in Auburndale
The Infant Swimming Resource Self-Rescue® technique teaches children how to survive if they were to reach the water alone.
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
Do parents have to leave during the lessons?
No. You are truly the best cheerleader your child could have. Your positive support and encouragement
are invaluable to creating an effective learning environment for your child.
How do you teach them to hold their breath?
Breath holding skills are taught beginning with the first lesson. We shape breath control using highly
effective positive reinforcement techniques. We continue to reinforce these breath-holding techniques
throughout every lesson.
How do the kids react during the first few lessons?
Children often fuss during the first few lessons because they are in a new environment and around new
people. As your child becomes more confident in his/her ability in the water, the fussing will decrease.
It is not unlike the first time you tried a new exercise class or were asked to perform a task at work that
you’d never done before: the first time you try a new task it is always challenging, until you get the hang
of it. It is the same for your young child. Your child is learning to perform a skill that he/she’s never done
before.
Are swimming lessons for infants and young children safe?
I can’t speak for all swim lessons, but I can tell you ISR is dedicated to safety and maintaining numerous
safety protocols to promote safe lessons. Your child's health and well-being are our highest priority and
are closely monitored on a daily basis. In addition, your child's medical and developmental history is a
mandatory part of the ISR national registration process, all of which is held strictly confidential. All ISR
instructors undergo intensive and rigorous training that far exceeds any other training program of this
kind. Each ISR instructor is also required to recertify yearly with emphasis on quality control, safety and
lesson efficiency. Your education in the area of aquatic safety for your entire family is an integral part of
your child's lessons. You will receive access to the "Parent Resource Guide" to inform you about every
aspect of swimming and aquatic safety for infants and children.
With research, you will find that ISR is not only the safest survival swimming program but also the most
effective for teaching infants and young children.
