Spring
2009 “I
just wanted to say "thank you" to you all! Margaret
used her skills tonight in a real world situation. My
husband and I were outside on the pool deck with her this
evening. She was on the pool coping and got down on her
knees and reached for a leaf in the pool. She leaned a
little too far and fell in head first. Before we made
it over to her, she had surfaced, rolled over to her back, and was
floating like a champ. She was fully clothed (dress,
normal diaper). It did scare her (and us too), but she
was totally fine once we got her dried off. I just
wanted to share the event with you and let you know (again) how thankful I
am for ISR!!!”

2009 "We would like to thank you
for teaching Samantha the ISR survival swim skills. You
demonstrated such patience with her. Prior to ISR, she
did not like to go under water. Samantha now “show’s
off” that she can go under water & float. Her
confidence has really increased since her lessons. We
felt that survival skills were very important around water even though we
don’t have a pool. We have a community pool & go to
the lake often. We feel that the cost/time were well
worth the results."

2010 "Let me just say that our
daughter LOVES Miss Sara. Miss Sara was very patient and encouraging as
well as firm while working with Birch--all of which qualities were needed
in abundance!!! Sara certainly went the extra mile to make sure that Birch
would be able to swim and float competently. I would highly recommend her
to any parent with small children that need to learn survival swimming.
Three cheers for Miss Sara!! Your hard work paid off--thank you so much!

2010 "Sara, we can't thank you
enough for the valuable life skill you have shared with our son. You took
so much patience and care with our little man and, though he cried some at
first, I never once felt he was in danger. Now crying about swimming is a
thing of the past (except when he has to get out of the pool)! After
completing his ISR lessons he is confident in and around the water and we,
his parents are at ease too! And happy- Oh, how he loves to jump and swim.
The benefit of these lessons has far outweighed the cost, time and effort.
WOW! I am so grateful! I am encouraging everyone I know with small
children to sign up TODAY! "

2010 "ISR with Sara was an awesome
experience! Sara was patient yet firm with my daughter and got her to
overcome her fears. Within 3 weeks my daughter was swimming like a fish!
I'm so much more comfortable with my daughter and swimming.

2010 "After seeing our nephew
survival swim after taking ISR classes, there was no question that we
would enroll our 23 month old daughter in the program. It was a must. Sara
Brull, her swim instructor, was extremely kind, caring and committed to
the success of the program. Within 6 weeks, our daughter had the necessary
water skills to help survive a fall into our pool unattended. This gives
us great peace of mind. Thank you Sara! You are amazing! Get ready for our
son. He is next! "

2010 "Tanner loved the water from
day one! It didn't matter if we were at the pool, the lake, the beach or
the good 'ole bath, he just wanted to splash and have fun. As water loving
parents, we were thrilled but as Tanner got older we realized he had
absolutely no fear of the water. And why should he, water is fun and
relaxing. Playing in it is something our entire family loves to do. So we
were so excited when I received an email from my neighbor, Sara Brull,
offering her services as an ISR instructor. My husband and I visited the
website and watched the videos of children as young as 6 months save
themselves from drowning. As parents we all want to educate and give our
children the best. So why not teach them the easy, fun skills that could
potentially save their life?

2010 "I
first learned of ISR last spring when my good friend enrolled her son. I
was amazed at the results but wasn’t able to commit the time during normal
working hours. While in her pool this past Spring I learned that classes
were now being offered in the evening and at a fairly convenient location
and immediately went home and enrolled my son Max. I was worried that
since he was almost 3 that it’d be harder to teach him these “instinctive”
skills. I was shocked that in just 1 week of classes he was already
floating on his back and swimming under water. He was so proud of himself.
After week 2 we went swimming at a friend’s and Max fell in from the
steps, he easily swam to safety and pulled himself out of the water
without panic or frustration. His confidence was already building! Today
Max swims regularly with his friends and family, it is so nice to be able
to enjoy swimming with him. I can’t believe I didn’t make this commitment
sooner!

2010 "My son took ISR swimming
lessons with Sara for 6 weeks, starting when he was 17 months old. From
the first lesson, Sara was patient, kind, and enthusiastic with my son.
Each day I was amazed at how much more he would learn and remember from
the previous lesson. Sara knew his limits and made sure not to push him
past his ability each day, but stretched him enough so that he was able to
sustain a back float in full clothes within 6 weeks! Now, 5 months after
lessons, he still is able to swim to the side, float on his back, and he
waits for permission to enter the pool. What wonderful life skills to know
at such a young age. I was so impressed with his progress, I have
recommended Sara to all my friends with babies/toddlers and would
recommend the ISR method to anyone. It is amazing!

2010 "When our daughters ages 3 and
4 started ISR, they couldn't float on their own or safely swim without
assistance and constant supervision. Under your tutelage we watched them
quickly and painlessly learn how to float. They are now able to play in
the pool without assistance because of your training (of course they're
always supervised). We're so pleased with the results and thrilled that
the girls have graduated the class. We highly recommend you and the
program to our friends and family and would be pleased to provide the most
glowing recommendation of you and ISR. We appreciated your constant
encouragement throughout and your positive attitude and flexibility. The
girls enjoyed the class and bonded with you, they're going to miss the
nightly lessons. Congratulations on a terrific program!

2010 "Sara, you are the best! I am
so thankful we found ISR and especially you. This has been a wonderful
experience and the best money we've ever spent! It is absolutely amazing
what our little 2-year old has accomplished in just 6 weeks! He absolutely
loves the water and is a little fish. You have given him the skills to
save himself should he find himself in what otherwise would seem like an
impossible position. It gives me and my husband (and especially all of the
grandparents with the pools!) some peace of mind. We loved getting to know
you, too. We will miss you! Thank you again for everything!

2010 "We want to thank Sara for the
wonderful ISR experience this summer. Our 1 year old daughter, Emma, went
from being nervous and scared when water was simply poured over her head
in the bathtub to a confident (and often times clapping) floater within
just a few short weeks. Sara's patience and calm approach was also great
for us parents. She took the time to explain the various techniques being
applied so that we were more comfortable with the process. We couldn't be
more pleased with how far Emma has progressed. We now have a daughter who
is much more comfortable in the water and loves it! Thanks again Sara!!

2010 "We enrolled our 13 month old
son for ISR lessons to acquire survival swim skills. It was a great
learning experience. Sara you were patient, understanding and
knowledgeable in helping our son overcome his fear of water. In just 3
weeks you had him floating without any assistance. We are grateful for the
life saving skills you have taught him and highly recommend every parent
with small children to sign up for your classes.

2010 "We decided to enroll our
daughter in ISR lessons after hearing rave reviews from a friend about
Sara. We had nothing but an amazing experience! Our daughter looked
forward to attending lessons each day. Sara was extreemly knowledagable,
patient, kind and kept us informed of how our daughter was progressing. As
a result, our daughter is more comfortable around the water and I have
complete confidence in the fact that if she fell in she would be able to
float and get to the side. We are expecting our second child soon and we
will definately put them through ISR with Sara!

2011 "We did ISR training with Miss Sara for our daughter this summer and
absolutely LOVED it. Jacey is swimming in the water without any floatation device, and most importantly she's safe in
the water. Sara gave her the tools to keep her safe, give her confidence, and make us feel comfortable with Jacey in
the water. Jacey knows how to rest and float on her back when she's tired, she knows how to swim to the stairs, and
to the side of the pool to be safe. Thanks to Sara for her patience, love and committment to teach children to survive
in the water.

2011 "We chose to do the ISR swimming lesson after seeing it on T.V. Having a
pool in the back yard we felt it was a necessity to teach our daughter survival skills. So, before she was even born we
contacted ISR and knew that we were going to enroll her as soon as she was old enough. At 6 months we drove over 50 miles
one way to bring our daughter into the metroplex for lessons. In a matter of weeks she was floating on her back and able
to hold her breath. This program is by far the best program available for teaching children how to survive in the water!
Addison loves the water and we feel safe knowing that she has the skills to save herself if an accident were to happen.
We can't wait to see you in the spring of 2012 for more lessons. Thank you Miss Sara!!!!

2011 "We recently moved here from AZ and found Sara through the ISR website.
We have 3 children and all have been through the program previously...moving here we were torn because we were very
attached to our instructor Holly Nelson of Chandler but knew we'd have to find a new ISR home. Sara was absolutely
wonderful. The kids took to her immediately. Sara was so loving yet got the job done. This summer swimming with all
three children was such a joy and so much fun!! I cannot rave about ISR enough. I can't tell you how many people cringe
when they see our youngest enter a pool without floaties...but then they see my kids swim and EVERY TIME come up to me
and ask me how they can swim like they do. I can tell you there's been multiple occasions the kids have lost their
footing for whatever reason and immediately go to their floats. Of course nothing is 100% drown-proof but this is by
far the closest thing. If you don't put your children in this program you're doing them as well as yourself a great
injustice. I know many parents worry about their child "freaking out" and having a fear of the water if you put them
through ISR...it's the exact opposite reaction. All three of our children have become little fish!! Meeting Sara and
having our children work with her was such a blessing. She has such patience, a great sense of humor and incredibly
professional. ISR is a commitment but the payout is unbelievably worth it. I still get tears in my eyes watching one
of my children go to their float for the first time. Your child will LOVE working with Sara...you'll know you're
child will be in safe hands and have a positive experience they will carry on with them for the rest of their lives.

2011 "ISR was such a fantastic swim course and did wonders for my son.
Before we started, my 3 year old son was afraid to go under water and was not comfortable swimming without flotation
devices. A couple weeks into the course he was going under water and swimming short distances. He was so excited with
himself and could not wait to go to swim every day to learn new skills and see Mrs. Sara. By the end of the course he
was swimming and floating and was completely confident in his skills. My husband and I could not believe the transformation
in his swimming from the beginning to the end. Not only has this course increased his confidence in swimming, but I have
also seen his confidence increase in other areas which is a true testament to his wonderful instructor, Sara. Sara’s
patience coupled with her knowledge and skills really appealed to my son and all other kids I had the opportunity see
her coach. I will be sending my daughter through the course next year and can’t wait to see the results. My husband
and I could not be more pleased with the course overall and highly recommend it!

2011 "My wife and I enjoyed taking our daughter to Sara’s ISR lessons.
Sara is super friendly, patient, and very knowledgeable. Our daughter Abby loved the lessons as much as she loved Sara.
We would definitely recommend Sara to anyone looking for an ISR lessons instructor. She’s probably the best.
