Rita Goldberg, CEO and Founder of British Swim School, is a former national swimmer from Britain who founded British Swim School in 1981. To counteract the lack of water safety knowledge, British Swim School developed a method where infants as young as three-months-old begin to learn how to flip on their backs. The gentle and fun water survival teaching styles are a recognized trademark of the brand today.

“We could not be more grateful for our dedicated franchisees and loyal customers that have made the past 35 years possible,” said Goldberg. “I’ve watched my passion blossom into an incredible program that has brought important water survival skills to communities across the country and we can’t wait to see what the next 35 years has in store for us.”

Last year, British Swim School sold 42 territories, doubling the number sold in 2014 and went from operating out of six states to operating out of 14. The brand also increased their number of swim lessons per year from 280,000 to 370,000 with an average of 43 swim lessons per hour. Driving the growth seen in 2015 are two strong company initiatives, including the launch of a mobile application and the introduction of a Water Watchers Card.

Marking an age of evolution for British Swim School in 2016, the brand projects to grow the company by nearly 30 percent through signing 30 new franchise territories nationwide. A primary focus will be to create an easy-to-implement program that allows franchisees to build their own pools. To date, nearly all franchisees have been operating out of existing pools in fitness chains, residential buildings, therapy pools and hotels, which drastically decreases the initial investment costs. Looking ahead, British Swim School will expand ownership offerings by creating a secondary tier of business involvement for interested candidates.
