Infant Swimming Resource™ Classes at WeAquatics
Our ISR lessons are the best way for infants to start a lifelong relationship with swimming.
Our Infant Swimming Resource™ classes are the best way for infants to start a positive lifelong relationship with swimming.
The high frequency of these Infant Swimming Resource™ (ISR) classes is intended to help improve muscle memory. Generally, students will master the course within one to two months of consistent classes.
The ISR program’s short duration makes it ideal for young children, as it breaks the swimming basics into simple learning bites for easy application. Though it’s natural to skip some classes, bear in mind that breaks in the course might end up lengthening the process.
Who are Infant Swimming Resource™ Classes for?
ISR classes are available to infants and children 6 months to 4 years old. Our classes are private, meaning students will be able to learn at their own pace and in a safe environment. For children with diverse learning needs, we have specially certified Swim Angelfish® instructors available upon request.
What makes Infant Swimming Resource classes special?
All ISR classes are private (1:1) and last for 10 minutes. That means we can focus on the student for the duration of his or her classes. Students are taught age-appropriate lifesaving skills. Students under 15 months focus on rolling over from a facedown position in the water to an unassisted float. Students 15 months and older learn to swim facedown for 3–5 seconds. They are then taught to roll over and float unassisted in order to rest and breathe. No other program breaks these skills down and applies them in this way.

Frequently Asked Questions about Infant Swimming Resource™
Why are ISR classes only 10 minutes long?
Ten-minute classes are designed to match young children’s attention spans and prevent fatigue to provide an optimal learning environment and retention of crucial water survival skills.
Isn’t 6 months too young to start swimming classes?
No, 6 months is an ideal age to begin. Early practice helps develop muscle memory for essential water survival skills, can significantly reduce drowning risks, and build a strong foundation for lifelong swimming skills.
Do you offer adaptive learning options for children with different needs?
Yes! While not all instructors have specialized training, WeAquatics does have instructors certified through Swim Angelfish® who are specifically trained to work with children who have diverse learning needs. If your child would benefit from these adaptive learning approaches, please indicate this during enrollment so we can match them with an appropriately certified instructor.
