We Central Texans have an abundance of lakes, rivers, and pools to enjoy the water all year long. Children love the water. In addition to parental supervision and safety equipment, our specialized aquatic survival instruction adds a final line of defense against a needless tragedy…childhood drowning.
Drowning remains the second leading cause of accidental death in Texas for children under the age of 14. According to Dell Children's hospital, in 2008 there were 36 aquatic incidents involving children in the Austin area. 31 of those incidents were near drownings and 5 resulted in the death of a child! Nationally, it ranks second only to automobile accidents. In addition to the 4,000 children each year who drown in the US, near drowning incidents leave another 12,000 children with some form of permanent brain damage.
ISR is the most comprehensive drowning prevention program in the US. We offer aquatic survival swimming lessons for children ages 6 months to 6 years. Our goal is to teach your child survival skills before he or she can get to the water. Register your child for ISR lessons today!
