All I can say Is WOW!! ISR is amazing!! I wish I could shout from the rooftops...and that everyone with little people in their lives would sign up!! Lisa is beyond amazing at what she teaches; she is gentle and firm in her approach, fighting through my kids' wills to want to do it their way. All three of my kids have confidence and fun in the water like never before. And, respect and skills to be safe!!! I LOVE ISR!! Having one of my children with a story of drowning and a miracle...I am SO, SO thankful for ISR!! -Reichen B.

Lisa is amazing with Ava and Myself. After losing my 1 year old, Ali, this past summer in a drowning accident, Lisa knew this would be hard for all of us. She has treated us with respect and grace as we navigate life around water again with Ava and overcome the trauma of losing Ali. I cannot say enough about Lisa and the amount of respect I have for her and what she does! -Tracy C.

I love how calm Lisa Johnson has made us feel.  I was a little nervous, but it was so nice during that first day and first week really for her to talk with us about what it is she’s doing and what is going on.  It has been nothing but a very positive and wonderful experience.  I am completely amazed by this program and by the instructor.  -Pam S.

We adore Lisa Johnson, she is amazing with children. Our son has some sensory issues and she has always been amazing with him. Both him and our daughter have come to love swimming with Lisa! -Lorrain D.

We have absolutely loved using Lisa Johnson for ISR lessons. She’s very attentive to the child and their individual needs. She’s also very good at explaining why she teaches the way she does. It makes this mama’s heart at ease watching her teaching my son. -Kayla V.

Lisa has been phenomenal with our daughter’s lessons! I am never worried about my daughter being in fear or pushed too far. My husband was really skeptical but now is in full support. I’d highly recommend true ISR to anyone with children. The cost is worth the lifesaving skill. Thank you Lisa and ISR for helping our daughter develop life saving swim skills. -Josi B.

It is amazing to see how my son has progressed over these past 6 weeks! A life saving skill for sure! I’m thankful we’ve been able to participate in the lessons. Lisa has been great! -Tarin 

Lisa is amazing. She tends to my daughter's emotional needs while still pushing her to grow and learn. In 120 minutes of water time, my 15 month is doing the swim float swim sequence.  I'm blown away everyday how much progress is made and with such subtle and gentle techniques.  She will be safe around water this summer and this will allow our whole family to have so much fun together! -Katie C

Sometimes it’s hard to hear in the pool room, but she does great at explaining what’s going on. Lisa goes above and beyond making sure that both child and parent are comfortable and well informed. She is committed to providing the best instruction and her passion for the well being of her students is outstanding. I couldn't be more happy, impressed and satisfied. I know my 3 children were given the best!! -Katie M.

Lisa Johnson was incredible with our son. He was not thrilled at the start of each lesson for the entire session but makes him  Feel comfortable and relaxed through our so he can learn and attain the skills. She felt he needed an extra lesson or two at the end and we were happy to know she takes each child and their learning time into consideration.  -Taylor D.

Lisa is the most patient, kind, caring instructor who pays such close attention to each child in order to best teach these necessary skills. I cannot say enough good things about her approach, her wisdom, her tenderness for our kids, and her care for our family as a whole. -Melissa L.

Lisa does a wonderful job of communicating and getting us as parents comfortable with the ISR process. You can tell that Lisa genuinely loves children and has such empathy and care for each one. We have been so happy with her instruction and our daughter’s progress. Our daughter is already flipping over to her back from every direction in the water, controlling her breathing, and floating on her own after 2 weeks of lessons! We feel confident that we made the right choice enrolling her in lessons with Lisa being that we live close to the lake and spend lots of time at the pool and on the boat. -Bree

Lisa is a wonderful instructor! She is so great with the kids to know how to provide the right reinforcement during the lesson and you can tell she really cares about the kiddo’s success!

Lisa is fantastic! My boys love her. My oldest is sometimes challenging to work with when he is forced to do something that gives him anxiety. He has had a fear of getting water in his ears and face since he was a baby. Lisa really helped him face this fear and has turned swimming into something he enjoys.   My younger son is a pro floater! We are taking a refresher session and started working on him swimming. I have been very satisfied with their progress. I feel very confident in their abilities, making our vacations and family fun around the pool much less anxiety producing. I would 100% recommend this swim class and plan on enrolling my youngest as soon as he hits the age limit.  

Lisa Johnson does an incredible job with the kids.  So made my son feel so comfortable and after just a few short days he was absolutely loving lessons. He asks every morning to go swim and see Mrs. Lisa. Could not be happier! 

I have recommended ISR and Lisa to all my friends. These lessons have been a great experience. Lisa is amazing. So patient and gives great information. You can tell she really cares for each student. She is professional but also makes the lesson fun for my daughter. She learned invaluable skills that I know have made a difference in how she approaches water. She loved her lessons and Lisa so much she would run to her in the pool! That alone was worth it to me just to see my daughter happy and comfortable in the water. Lisa is the best! -Betsy H.

Lisa Johnson is absolutely incredible! My daughters love and adore her! She is so kind, gentle and patient with my girls. She has given me so much peace of mind for my girls this summer and going forward.

Lisa Johnson is amazing. She just has such a compassionate, loving demeanor with the kids. My son loved her, he didn't want lessons to be over! 

We were pleasantly surprised with our ISR experience. Admittedly I was hesitant because as a mother, I am not a good swimmer so it was important to me that my daughter not follow on that path. We live in an area surrounded by water & have a boat so having ISR lessons was important to us for our daughter. After the first week of acclimation, each lesson was better and better! Lisa not only taught our daughter essential swimming skills, she guided me as a nervous mother poolside with grace and confidence. ISR lessons with Lisa Johnson was the highlight of our winter & we're excited to continue bringing our daughter to swim and continue learning with her! -Emily B.

I truly appreciate the personal love and attention that was given to my child while in Miss. Lisa Johnson's class. She was patient and encouraging with my daughter and has given her confidence in the water as well as us as her parents while she is in the water both at our pond at home as well as pools.   Kailey H.

Lisa Johnson is great with the kids, she treats them as if they were her own, she makes the parent feel very comfortable. Would highly recommend Lisa and the ISR program.

Lisa Johnson does an incredible job with the kids.  She made my son feel so comfortable and after just a few short days he was absolutely loving lessons. He asks every morning to go swim and see Mrs. Lisa. Could not be happier! 

Miss Lisa has been incredible! My daughter was genuinely so excited to go and see her each day. She did a great job personalizing her needs when it came to learning and she worked amazingly well even though we were teething through most of lessons. I feel so confident in my daughters abilities in the pool this summer! Thank you! -Kirsten

Lisa Johnson was amazing! My daughter has A LOT of energy and Lisa did great with her. It is simply amazing the knowledge my daughter has now about water and floating! I feel very confident that this summer is going to great knowing she can self rescue if need be! ISR is truly wonderful and miss Lisa Johnson was great! We will be coming back in the fall for a refresh course and a full course for my younger daughter.

Lisa is so calm and patient with the kids.  They grow to trust her pretty quickly and we start to see results immediately.  I am forever grateful for Lisa Johnson and have been highly recommending her to everyone I know that want to do this amazing life saving program.  -Pam S

Lisa Johnson is an incredible instructor. She works with each child one-on-one and adapts to every cue and move they make in the water. I don’t even understand how she does the mental gymnastics she does. All the kids including my son adore her. 

Lisa Johnson was very knowledgeable in infants swim safety and was able to explain step by step our daily learnings. She was also very approachable, therefore I was able to ask any questions necessary. -Emily C

Mrs Lisa gave 110% effort at every lesson. She pays attention to detail, explained to us every step / success / plan. She was energetic and enthusiastic, and celebrated even the smallest victories with our little man. -Rachel
