RLS SWIM ACADEMY

SEPTEMBER SESSION 9/15-10/24

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:

Kathy Cole, Senior Master Instructor

Upon relocating to Ft Myers, FL from Central FL in 2007, Kathy became an ISR instructor after realizing a huge need for the program in the SWFL area. Kathy's background includes a BA in Psychology from Rollins College as well as a MS in Health Services Administration from University of Central Florida. She has taught over 2200 students to swim and self-rescue.

She became a Master Instructor in 2012 and has trained 60 ISR Instructors, one of those being her husband, Steve!

A little background on us as a husband/wife ISR team…We met in March of 1993 while working at Walt Disney World! We have been married for 31 years and we have two children who are 30 and 25. Our 25-year-old daughter was an ISR student in Central FL in 2002, and we both became huge advocates of the ISR program at that time after watching her go through her initial lessons and then refresher lessons the following year. We now teach ISR full time in three counties in the SWFL area, typically reaching over 400 students per year together.

In 2018, Kathy was selected by ISR to become a Senior Master Instructor Candidate. In this role, she serves to mentor and develop future Master Instructors and provide continuing education for current ISR instructors. In February of 2023, she supervised her first Master Instructor training in Delaware and in March 2023 she became a Senior Master Instructor. It is rare to find her alone in the water as she is often training new instructors. She has a passion not just for teaching ISR, but for training and mentoring new instructors as they start their own businesses.

LOCATION: RLS Swim Academy in Sartell, MN.

TIMES: 8:00 A.M.-12:45 P.M. Choose your child’s time slot for their daily, 10-minute, one-on-one lesson Monday through Friday for 6 weeks. Keep nap schedules and eating schedules in mind. They cannot have food or drink 2 hrs prior to lessons.

AGES: We teach children ages 6 months to 6 years old. INFANTS must be 6 months plus one day of age by 9/8/25 in order to complete ISR registration. They also must meet the developmental milestone of being able to get into a seated position and sit unassisted for 60 seconds.

***CONTINUING LESSONS will be provided for students in this session at RLS Swim Academy following this session.

Before moving forward with Scheduling, PLEASE read the following:

I UNDERSTAND….

  • Lessons are 10 min/day, 5 days/week (Mon-Fri) for 6 weeks (average of 30 lessons total).

  • I should reach out to the instructor prior to scheduling if I have vacation planned during the session.

  • I am paying for my child's time slot on the instructor’s schedule regardless of attendance. There will be no prorations or makeup days unless cancelled by the instructor. If my child needs additional lessons beyond the original scheduled time frame and they have missed lessons, I will be required to pay for the additional lessons they need to complete the skill set, or 30 attended lessons.

  • I will be required to pay a 1-week lesson fee deposit of $110 in order to schedule my child for lessons and reserve a time slot. This pays for my child’s first week of lessons and reserves their time slot on the instructor’s schedule.

  • My lesson fee deposit is NOT refundable.

  • INVESTMENT: $110/WK X 6 WEEK = $660 TOTAL FOR THE 6 WEEKS

Now that you have read the above information, let’s get your child scheduled!

Some things to know before you do this:

  • You will be able to choose your child’s location, start date and time slot once you create an account in our Scheduler software. The system will require you to pay a 1-week deposit for each child you are scheduling.

  • Once you have scheduled and paid the 1-week deposit, you will not pay lesson fees again until Monday of week 2 of lessons.

  • Once you have set up an account in our scheduler software for your child, you will have access to a gift link in your child’s portal that you can share with grandparents/friends/family that can be used to add funds to your child’s account. This makes a great holiday or birthday gift idea!
