Infant Swimming Resource - ISR

It is never too soon to keep your child safe. Curious and quick, with an appetite for adventure, infants and toddlers can happen into trouble in an instant. One of the greatest dangers your child will face is water. In fact, in 18 states drowning ranks as the most prominent cause of accidental death for children less than 4 years of age. California is one of the leaders in this tragic statistic.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Today, you can take action to protect your child.

All-Star Academy offers a comprehensive infant swim program. In our infant swim program, we teach infants and toddlers what to do if they accidentally fall in the water. Certified by the Infant Swimming Resource program (ISR- www.infantswim.com), we use time-tested methods to teach aquatic survival skills and aquatic problem solving. Created almost 40 years ago by Dr. Harvey Barnett, the ISR program seeks to eradicate drowning as a cause of death in children. Since its inception, over 175,000 children have been taught using the ISR methods. By educating your child, you’ll do more to prevent accidental drowning than any other method.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Our ISR instructors have completed extensive coursework and in-water training to provide you with a safe and thorough program. Our goal is to teach your baby aquatic survival skills they can use to help themselves. In addition, our infant swim program introduces them to water in a fun, positive way.

Babies from six to twelve months learn to assume a back float position from any angle of safe presentation into water. Typically, this skill takes four weeks to develop, though every child is different and progresses at different speeds.

Babies over twelve months (and walking) learn to swim face down, roll onto their backs to rest and breathe, then rotate back over to swim to the wall and crawl out performing a swim-float-swim sequence. In six weeks, most babies in ISR at All-Star Academy can learn to exit the water safely.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once your child has completed their Infant Swimming Resource lessons, we encourage you to enroll them in refresher courses every 6-12 months. This ensures that as they grow and change they maintain their skills, body awareness and stamina.

Enroll in All-Star Academy’s Infant Swimming Resource lessons to provide immeasurable protection to your child. Not to mention peace of mind for yourself.
