Hello from the Red Stick State.
My name is Ashley Spencer and
I am a Survival Swim Instructor, located in Baton Rouge, Louisiana. I graduated from Louisiana State University in
Elementary Education back in 1998 and
have 3 amazing children:
Emma Grace (Senior @ LSU),
Elliott-12th grade,
and Evann Elizabeth (7th grade),
where they both attend The Dunham School.
I have always LOVED being with children, for as long as I can remember. They are adorable, smart little people who I seem to "get" more than adults sometimes-HAHA! I get "energy" from being with children and knew I would always work with children from the time I was small.
Before embarking on this ISR journey, I taught 1st & 2nd grade, at both public & private schools, for 13 years and then owned /taught an extra-curricular agility, fine & gross motor development program for children ages 3-5 years old over the past 10 years called "TOT" or Teams Of Tomorrow, where I was formerly known around town as "Miss TOT."
Although each career fulfilled me & allowed me to be around many children, the value and purpose of my life still felt unfulfilled and I wanted to do something MORE impacting and life-changing for the people I encounter everyday.
This is where Survival Swim comes in!
Read More about "My Why" below..
Drownings do not discriminate! They happen to good families and loving parents. ALL bodies of water can be dangerous and deadly to children, but with Survival Swim lessons, I believe they are at least given a HUGE chance to SAVE themselves. It is my mission and passion to inform all parents that the FLOAT makes all of the difference! Please take the first step and enroll your precious child in these life-saving, water safety classes. You will NOT regret the time, money, nor the commitment it requires. Nothing is more important than your child's life.
Survival Swimming Lessons are the BEST and most effective form of swimming lessons worldwide, teaching your child to learn how to get into their life-saving float in order to get as much AIR as needed. These water safety skills are available to children ages 6 months to 6 years old, as well as ALL ages and ALL people.
Survival Swim Lessons combine learning to swim with aquatic survival skills should your child find the water alone, focusing on a horizontal swimming posture vs. a vertical one which doesn't provide enough life saving AIR.
Infants 6mos. to 12mos. learn to FLOAT
and Toddlers who can walk and up, learn to SWIM-FLOAT-SWIM. Children 6 years and under MUST learn to FLOAT in order to get enough AIR through traditional swim lessons, where they use the stroke and side breathing, which turns their swim into a treading water, vertical posture which is not swimming. True Swimming must remain in a horizontal swimming posture, in order to get enough air to feel strong enough to swim again and again.
Swimming lessons should only take up to 6 weeks at the most, not weekly for a year. They should also be one on one only.
You will need to Read Over the Parent Agreement BEFORE Reserving a Time Slot. Reserving a Time Slot (Step 1) commits you to this Parent Agreement. <>< <><

Survival Swim Lessons are 12 min per day, 4 days a week, for up to 6 weeks for Children 6 months- 6 yrs. old. There are also 5-wk Sessions (Sessions 3-6), where you can swim 15 min per session, for only 20 days.

We CAN work around vacations/school schedules, but I MUST know BEFOREHAND & BE APPROVED before the session begins for it to be possibly worked out. Some future sessions in the summer months will not always be able to accommodate an added child who was on vacation in the previous session, so please be mindful before reserving a spot.
Also, please DO NOT schedule a spot without intentions to immediately make payment (Step 2). You are reserving a free we spot for someone who may really need it and is ready to pay. Doing so may flag your child from being apart of a Survival Swim Session in the future. Thank you for your cooperation and understanding.
**I am super flexible and am willing to work with your schedule to see your child SKILLED & SAFE in the water! <>< <><

"We had the most wonderful experience with Ashley. It was well worth the money and time for my two sons. With my oldest son being six and still being reliant on a swim jacket after attending countless other swim lessons in the past, I wish I would have known about Survival Swim years ago. By the start of the third week, he was already demonstrating the confidence and skills to swim on his own, But more importantly to save himself in the deep end if necessary. It's such a relief that he can now swim and float so well thanks to survival swim lessons and my little one (18 months old) is well on his way too!"
"My daughter is 2 years old and to watch her swim a little and then turn over to float is incredible. The encouragement from Ashley, the Survival Swim Instructor, worked wonders for my daughter, and it's so sweet to watch! I will recommend this program to everyone I come in contact with that has kids 6 months and older!"
"Our Survival Swim Experience Ms. Ashley was INCREDIBLE for my daughter. She went from not wanting water to touch her face to just DAYS later, constantly putting her own head underwater! She made GREAT strides in a quick time frame. I am so happy I stumbled upon Ms. Ashley because of what it accomplished with my daughter in just 5 weeks! I will continue to recommend only Survival Swimming Programs instead of Traditional Swimming programs to anyone with young children, 6 years old and under!
