FAQs
How do the kids react during the first few lessons?
Children often fuss during the first few lessons because they are in a new environment and around new
people. As your child becomes more confident in his/her ability in the water, the fussing will decrease.
It is not unlike the first time you tried a new exercise class or were asked to perform a task at work that
you’d never done before: the first time you try a new task it is always challenging, until you get the hang
of it. It is the same for your young child. Your child is learning to perform a skill that he/she’s never done
before.
What other benefits does the ISR lesson experience provide students?
Every child is unique. However, many parents report that once their young children have mastered
learning to swim, the resulting confidence in their abilities engenders a positive self-concept that is often
demonstrated in other aspects of their personalities. There are also obvious health and other
psychological gains.
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.
Can’t babies swim naturally?
Unfortunately, babies cannot naturally swim. If this were the case, there wouldn’t be so many drownings
every year. According to the Center for Disease Control and Accident Prevention, drowning is the leading
cause of accidental death for children ages 1-4 in the United States.
