We are excited to have Andrea Clarke, ISR Master Instructor, back to the Bon Air pool again for the 2023 summer!
Benefits of ISR Teaching
Trained professionals teaching ISR (Infant Swimming Resource) have been through the most comprehensive training program working with 6 month olds-6 year olds. Student Instructors complete 20-30 hours of academic studies before they are allowed to be hands on with any student. Instructors also complete 20 hours minimum each week with daily academic work outside of the pool. This combined is 120 hours of academic work and 60-80 hours of in-water instruction. 7 weeks of in-water teaching, where we apply emotional and physical applications of our studies to get the best result possible from each student.
Drowning is the leading cause of death among children ages 0-4 years old which is a statistic that can be changed with proper instruction. Our mission as ISR Instructors is that “Not One More Child Drowns”. Our lessons are all 1:1 and allows the student to connect with the Instructor and feel safe. We teach 50 minutes of individual lessons per student each week. 5 days a week for 10 minutes per day. (this sounds short, but our 1:1 method works!)
- Children ages 6-12 months learn to roll onto their back from a face down position to gain access to air and maintain their breathing until they can be safely removed from harm.
- Children 13 months to 6 years old (typically) learn to swim a short distance for 4-5 seconds, roll onto their back to float/rest/breathe and flip back over to swim to safety.
Lesson Time/Duration/Frequency
- Lessons are daily, Monday thru Friday
- 10 minutes per day, per student, for a total of 50 minutes of 1:1 lessons per week, lasting between 4-6 weeks (depending on age and weather cancellations etc.)

Swim Diapers
Any child that is NOT potty trained is required to wear a reusable swim diaper. You can find them at target, walmart, amazon and other retailers. Iplay is a great brand, but their are tons around.
