British Swim School Makes A Huge Splash In Richmond

Water Safety and Survival School Celebrates Two Openings With Ribbon Cutting Ceremonies

June 10, 2019 // Franchising.com // Richmond, VA. - British Swim School, best known for its education of water safety as an essential survival skill amongst a fun and gentle environment, continues its nationwide expansion with two openings in Richmond. The additions have been open as of the end of April and are being acknowledged through two separate ribbon cutting ceremonies.

The British Swim School Ashland ribbon cutting ceremony will be held on June 11th at 3:30pm. To celebrate, a representative from the Hanover Chamber of Commerce will be in attendance to cut the ribbon and enjoy a cocktail hour with the locals. Additionally, the British Swim School Henrico ribbon cutting is scheduled to take place on June 19th, at 3:00pm at the Springhill Suites Richmond Northwest where guests can join for cocktail hour and have the chance to enter to win giveaways.

British Swim School franchisee, Marcel Seukep, opened both pools in late April 2019 and is a proud member of the British Swim School franchise system.

“I'm so passionate about spreading water safety survival skills to the Richmond community,” said Marcel Seukep, British Swim School franchisee. “I hope both locations will have a strong impact on the community and teach both families and children the importance of water safety.”

British Swim School offers a two-step curriculum teaching children and adults of all ages, some as young as three months, water safety and survival skills, along with swimming skill development. While parental supervision is always the number one safety measure, research shows that participation in formal swim programs, such as those offered by British Swim School, can reduce the risk of drowning by 88 percent among children who are most at risk for deaths caused by drowning.

The British Swim School franchise operates a unique water safety program with teaching methods that serve as a trademark for the brand. The company offers lessons out of multiple national fitness chains and hotel pools year-round, based on the premise that children progress at different rates. Each child, regardless of age, is placed in their correct skill level and will have certain achievable objectives. British Swim School operates in nearly 200 schools in 21 states within the U.S., and holds 19,000 lessons per week nationally, and conducted nearly 750,000 swimming lessons in 2018.

British Swim School in Ashland is located at 11600 Lakeridge Parkway, Ashland VA 23005, while British Swim School in Henrico can be found at 9960 Independence Park Drive, Henrico VA 23233.
