Why teach infant swim lessons in full winter clothes?
Why have infants and young children learn to swim in full winter clothes? Good question, and it’s an important one!

Annual re-certification requirements ensure that ISR's high standards for lesson safety and effectiveness are upheld and re-certification events help keep the ISR Team in touch and connected.

This sequence is repeated until the child reache
