Meet Our Team

The SafeSplash Swim School franchise leadership team was built on a shared passion for water safety and a deep understanding of the challenges families face without access to proper swim education. Recognizing the urgent need for a program that prioritizes drowning prevention, lifesaving skills, and proper technique, we came together to create a brand that puts both students and franchisees at the center.

We believe every individual—regardless of age or ability—deserves access to high-quality swim instruction in a safe, supportive environment. By combining decades of expertise, we’ve developed a flexible, proven program that adapts to each swimmer’s needs and builds the skills and confidence necessary to stay safe in the water.

As we expand nationwide, our team remains focused on empowering franchise owners with the tools, training, and resources they need to make a real impact. We work side-by-side with our operators to grow SafeSplash Swim School into more communities—delivering a mission-driven business opportunity that changes lives and creates long-term value for our partners.

The Market Behind the Mission

Drowning is the leading cause of death for children ages 1–4 and the second-leading cause for kids up to age 13¹—yet many still don’t have access to swim lessons that could save their lives. Research shows that well-designed programs can reduce drowning risk by up to 99%², underscoring the powerful impact of swim instruction done right. At the same time, demand for youth activities continues to rise, with sports participation growing nearly 3% annually³—creating a meaningful opportunity to serve families with a purpose-driven program that meets both emotional and developmental needs.
