What parents are saying about ISR Self-Rescue lessons…
“Susanne Malebranche has been fantastic so far. She has done a great job at explaining what is going on with my son and his progress. My son is gettting the life saving skills he needs to survive in the water and I can see the progress already as we enter week 3. Cannot thank her enough! ”
“Susanne established a relationship of respect and trust with my children and me from the start. Her enthusiasm, explanations, and feedback were perfectly tailored to each of my children. She is quick thinking and adapts to each of their responses and demonstrations so well. I’ve seen amazing results and progress each day, and I feel so lucky to be part of Susanne’s ISR group. We can’t say enough amazing things about this experience!”
“Susanne Malebranche is an excellent instructor. She is very patient with my son. She always explains what she is doing or why she was doing something a certain way. She always answers my questions and will give me a heads up on what the next lesson might be, if he’ll be going under more etc. to help keep me feeling comfortable. ”
“We are thrilled to have our 3 children enrolled in ISR! The amount of comfort and confidence they each have now is incredible. We look forward to continuing refreshers with Susanne Malebranche and cannot recommend ISR enough!”
“Susanne Malebranche has taught my twins for two sessions now. She is the kindest and most trustworthy person with my children. Her professional gentle technique that she uses to teach children to self rescue is incredible! So thankful for ISR AND Susanne!!”
“Our instructor is Susanne and we love her! She is so good and patient with the kids. We can see the progress and that they are retaining what she is teaching them. ”
“Susanne Malebranche is extremely patient with our son who tends to be emotional at his lessons and communicates really well at where she thinks he is in his skills attainment. The passion she has for her work is obvious and she does everything she can to make up missed lessons and get the job done! We are so grateful for her!”
“I am incredibly grateful for Susanne’s patience and calm approach to working with my 2 boys who have been traumatized after their sister drowned last fall. She has been professional, compassionate and well balanced between encouraging them to try hard things and waiting for them to be ready for the next step. There are simply not enough words of gratitude and praise.”
“Susanne Malebranche, aka Ms Susanne, is an absolute angel on Earth. The skills she has given my children choke me up every time I think about it. This summer we had refresher training and I was worried about what the kids would remember after almost a year since their prior lessons. They did great!! Ms Susanne was always encouraging and reassuring for not only my boys, but for me as well. About 2/3 of the way thru our 3 week lesson, my 5 year old had a scary experience in a family member’s pool. His skills escaped him since he was surrounded by his cousins and he lost his footing from the shallow to the deep end of the pool. Ms Susanne was fantastic!! She spent the next several lessons working with my son in the deeper end of the pool and they practiced several scenarios that could happen when others are around you in the water. She made sure he remained confident and practiced all those important skills that he had learned. We love Ms Susanne so much and I could NEVER thank her enough for the gift she gave my babies. And I sing her praises and the skills provided by ISR to anyone and everyone who will listen. These lessons are so important!!!”

“ISR’s unique results are achieved through fully customized, safe and effective one-on-one lessons with only your child and the instructor in the water.”
