Going beyond traditional swim instruction, ISR teaches children how to survive in the water. Offered in partnership with Gateway ISR, Certified ISR Instructor, Stacy Wistuba. For more than 40 years, Infant Swimming Resource (ISR) has been teaching children critical Self-Rescue® skills -- giving children the competence and confidence to safely enjoy the water. ISR’s technique teaches babies from 6 months to children 6 years of age how to save themselves if they were to end up in the water alone. Your child’s safety is our first priority. Each lesson is uniquely tailored to your child’s needs based on comprehensive assessment and continual monitoring of your child’s health and skill attainment. Every child learns at his or her own pace, your child will be gently guided through each Self Rescue® Skill. A child 6-12 months learns: To hold their breath underwater To roll onto their back To float unassisted, rest and breathe until help arrives To perform these self-rescue skills first in a swim diaper and then fully clothed A child 1-6 years learns: To hold their breath underwater Swim with their head down Roll onto their back to float, rest and breathe Flip over to resume swimming until they reach the side of the pool, crawl out, be rescued by an adult or return to floating To perform these self-rescue skills first in a swim diaper/bathing suit and then fully clothed Lessons are scheduled every day (Monday-Friday) for 10 minutes each day. Sessions are dependent on the individual child and their progression through the skills. Typically, 6 weeks is the average. For more information and to view videos of what your child will learn with ISR, visit www.isrstl.com. Interested participants MUST contact Certified ISR Instructor, Stacy Wistuba at info@gatewayisr.com to schedule lessons. Lessons are billed weekly on Monday’s, $110/week per week. You only pay for the number of weeks it takes for your child to master the skills, typically 6 weeks.

The Preschool program is designed to teach 3-5 year olds to be comfortable in a school-age program setting. We will introduce proper breathing, front/back float and kicking techniques. When these skills can be done on a consistent basis, the child will continue on to freestyle and backstroke. After they have reached the age of four, and are comfortable with the school-age environment, they may be moved to the SwimAmerica program.

The Parent and Child swim classes are designed to have parents in the pool with their child age six months through two years old. Through the use of songs and games we will offer the opportunity for the parent and child to work together and learn skills that will be necessary in other Swim America classes.
