Self-Rescue Lessons

Striving to provide Self-Rescue lessons for infants, toddlers, and children with special needs. These lessons not only provide your child with water survival skills, but also with aquatic skills for a lifetime of fun in and around the water.

​Self-Rescue lessons are 
entirely customized to an age, development and skill appropriate level. These lessons are designed for children as young as 6-months, young children with special needs, and children up to 6-years old who may not be ready for traditional swimming lessons. 

​Lessons are held Monday through Friday for a maximum of 10 minutes per lesson, at the same time every day. Lessons are scheduled in an 8-week block, with most children becoming fully skilled in an average of 6 weeks. All lessons are one-on-one to allow for the safest and most effective instruction.

What to Know!

What's Next?


​

​
6-12 Month Skills

​

​


​
​Children ages 6 months to 1 year old will learn the rollback-to-float sequence. In this sequence, children will learn to independently find their float, breathe and maintain the float until help arrives.

​




​1-6 Year
Skills


​
​
​

​Older, more mobile children will learn one of two sequences: swim-float-stay where they roll can roll and maintain a float until help arrives, or the swim-float-swim where they learn to swim swim until they need air, float to breathe, and return to a swim. They are taught to maintain these sequences until they reach safety or help arrives.



​​
Maintenance Lessons

​

​

​Based on availability,  these lessons are held less frequently than refresher lessons and help students maintain their skills and confidence. Ideally, these should be scheduled at instructor recommended intervals, and often range from once or twice a week to once a month.

​

​
Refresher Lessons

​

​


​Held about six months after the last session, these lessons are a condensed version of the initial session. The length of refresher lessons depends on which skills your child learned in the previous session, as well as how much time has passed.

Rollback-to-Float
The rollback to float teaches your baby how to independently turn to their back, breath, rest and maintain the float until help arrives. This skill set is for infants to early walkers
Swim-Float-Stay
With this sequence, your child will learn to swim with their head down before rolling to their back to float. This skill set is for early walkers.
Swim-Float-Swim
During these lessons, your child will learn how to swim, rollback to float, and turn to swim and start the sequence again. This skill set is for children over 1-year old and solid walkers.

What they learn

Your child will learn a skill set that is appropriate for their age and development. Every child enrolled in self-rescue lessons will learn to roll onto their back to float, rest and breathe, and to maintain this position until help arrives.
