ISR and CrossFit Kids
Preparing Children for the Unexpected
CrossFit Kids, a worldwide fitness program designed for children, is working with Infant Swimming Resource, the safest provider of survival swimming lessons worldwide, to teach children water-survival skills, safety, and confidence that will help children Prepare For The Unexpected.
“As the first ones on the scene, fire fighters and police officers know drowning tragedies all too well,” said Greg Glassman, CrossFit CEO. “All four of my children have successfully completed ISR’s Self-Rescue program, and I am a believer that a moment’s inattention does not have to cost a child his life. Through this initiative, CrossFit Kids and ISR will be teaching children to be survivors.”
"Many families do not realize the threat that drowning poses to their children. They don’t realize they won’t even hear a splash, and that a child can be properly trained to survive in the water alone," said Harvey Barnett, Ph.D., pediatric drowning prevention specialist and founder of Infant Swimming Resource. “When it comes to swimming lessons, everyone is in need -- together we are preparing children for the unexpected.
