About ISR Lessons

Tiny Texans ISR provides lessons that teach infants and young children critical self-rescue skills in the water, focusing on safety and survival. Through personalized, one-on-one lessons, children as young as six months old learn how to hold their breath, float, and roll onto their backs to prevent drowning. Tiny Texans ISR’s goal is to equip children with the skills they need to stay safe in the water while building their confidence and comfort. Learn more by reading our FAQs!

Float

Infants starting at 6 months old

During an ISR swim lesson for a 6-month-old, the focus is on teaching foundational self-rescue skills in a gentle and supportive environment. At this age, babies learn how to hold their breath underwater and are guided to roll onto their backs to float, which is a critical skill for survival. The lessons are designed to be calm and reassuring, helping the baby become comfortable in the water while building the muscle memory needed to float independently.

Swim

Children up to 6 years old

For toddlers through 6 years old, ISR swim lessons build on foundational self-rescue skills while introducing more advanced techniques tailored to each child's developmental stage. The core skill set follows a swim-float-swim sequence—the child will first learn to hold their breath underwater, roll onto their backs to float and rest, then flip back over to continue swimming toward safety.

Refresh

Program graduates

An ISR refresher course is designed for children who have previously completed ISR lessons and need to reinforce and update their self-rescue skills. During these sessions, I evaluate the child's current abilities and adjusts the training to match their growth and developmental changes. If your child was previously a floater and is now ready for the swim-float-swim sequence - they’ll need to take a new ISR course because they’ll be learning a new skill set!
