FAQs
Do you have children that just can’t learn the skills?
No. Every child can learn. It is my job to find the best way to communicate the information so that it
makes sense to the child. I set your child up to be successful every time you bring them to me. I start
where they are and through consistent lessons, we see progress.
Will my child fear the water because of lessons?
There is an important difference between being fearful and being apprehensive because you are not yet
skilled in a new environment. ISR is not like traditional swim lessons; it is a drowning prevention program
that teaches survival swimming. Sometimes as a parent, you make choices for your child’s safety, like
sitting in a car seat, because you know they are important. The same can be said for ISR.
Fun can be defined as when skill meets challenge. Once competent in their skills, many children cannot
be dragged away from the pool. They are having entirely too much FUN.
How is it that babies can learn to respond to the danger of water when they fall in?
A baby does not need to perceive danger or be afraid to respond appropriately to being underwater. If a
baby has learned to roll over and float when he needs air, he doesn't need to perceive danger in order to
respond in this manner. He needs skill, practice and confidence to calmly deal with the situation.
Is it the baby fat that makes them float?
Actually, the primary factor in a baby’s ability to float is the ability to take air into the lungs. To maintain
this access to air, the child must adjust his/her posture. The difference in positioning for an adult can be
inches. For a baby, this adjustment is reduced to centimeters. If a child’s body posture is just a few
centimeters off, it can make the difference between the face being submerged or the child having access
to air.
