Cold Water Immersion Course

Know your reaction!

If you plan to (or might) be on the ice this winter, our Cold Water Immersion course will prepare you for possible - and all too deadly - danger of falling through.

If you're going to travel on the ice, you better be prepared to go through it! Knowing your reaction could make all the difference! Practice in a real world environment (it ain't a pool, and those are your regular ol' clothes) under safe and controlled conditions with professional instructors.

We teach our students how to overcome an unexpected plunge into natures ice and water. Our professional instructors teach you the 1-10-1 principle and get you to jump in 1, 2, 3 times and practice pulling yourself to safety different ways with or without help.
