NOT ALL SURVIVAL SWIM PROGRAMS ARE CREATED EQUALLY

OUR PROGRAM

ISR is recognized as the world's safest provider of survival swimming lessons for children 6 months to 6 years of age. ISR designed its proprietary methodology for you:parents who are dedicated to their child's safety, education, and developmental needs. We have invested over 45 years in your child's ability to play safely in and around the water, while lowering the risk of drowning, because we recognize that parents need their children to feel comfortable around the water. With a focus on safe, customized one-on-one training delivered exclusively by certified instructors, Isr's Self-rescue lessons emphasize health, continuous program evaluations, and parent education unlike any other swim instruction program.

HISTORY OF ISR

Founded by Harvey Barnett, Ph.D in 1966, ISR endeavored to put an end to a preventable tragedy...childhood drowning. Barnett witnessed the aftermath of this tragedy after a neighbor's 9-month-old son reached the water alone. From that point on , Barnett vowed to do everything possible to ensure that Not One More Child Drowns. A behavioral scientist by trade, Barnett adapted his theoretical knowledge of learning to pioneer ISR's Self-rescue method, which is used today to teach infants and young children to save themselves should they reach the water alone. Fortunately, what began as one man's mission has transformed into a worldwide organization that is continually making large strides toward the day that Not One More Child drowns. To date, ISR has more that 800 documented cases of children using ISR's survival swimming techniques to save themselves from drowning. 

SAFETY FIRST 

At ISR, your child's safety is our first priority. Each survival swimming lesson is uniquely tailored to your child's needs based on a comprehensive assessment and continual monitoring of your child's health and skill attainment. We understand that every child learns at his or her own pace, and accordingly, your child will be gently guided through each skill level based on his or her level of development and readiness
