Since 1966, ISR has safely delivered over 7 million lessons to teach water self-rescue skills to more than 177,224 babies and has educated parents and medical experts nationwide on water safety techniques and proven instruction methods. To date, ISR has 788 documented cases of children using ISR techniques to save themselves from drowning.

ISR Instructors are the most highly trained and qualified instructors in any swimming program in the country and must undergo strict re-certification testing annually. Each instructor is academically trained and tested in areas such as child psychology, physiology, anatomy and behavioral science to provide the safest lesson possible for your child.  In addition, each instructor spends a minimum of 60 hours hands on, supervised in-water training working with actual students.    

·       National Registration:   There is a one-time ISR national registration fee of $105.00 for each new student. This fee can be paid on line via Pay pal, credit card, or personal check. Your registration fee covers the cost of screening procedures for physical and developmental readiness of your child by our team of medical professionals.  You will also receive your ISR Introductory Kit which includes your Parent Resource Book, swim diaper (if needed), ISR t-shirt, informative DVD, etc. There is an annual refresher fee or update fee of $35.00 for returning students.

·       Refresher Classes:  Upon completion of your child's initial lessons, every child should take a short 1 – 2 week refresher course every 4-6 months.  Regular weekly fee applies.

·       Maintenance Lessons:  Upon completion of your child's initial lessons or refresher lessons, maintenance lessons are recommended to maintain your child's skills.   

·       What your child will learn:   A baby from 6 months to 12 months will learn how to hold their breath underwater, roll onto their back and float unassisted until someone rescues them. A child from 1 year old to 6 years old, will learn how to hold their breath underwater, swim head down, roll onto their back to float, rest and breathe; then roll back over to resume swimming until they reach the side of the pool and crawl out. This is called the ISR swim-float-swim sequence. 

·       Weekly Fees: $75.00 per week  

All weekly fees are due each Friday of the week prior to lessons. This can be paid via cash or check payable to
Safe Swimming 4 Kids.
