AQUAfin Swim School has been acquired by Emler Swim School
Emler Swim School has acquired AQUAfin Swim School. The AQUAfin locations are Emler’s first Florida schools.
AQUAfin is a swim school that provides individual and group swimming lessons for infants through adults. The company uses a proprietary progress-based curriculum model that places students in classes based on their proficiency level, not just their age. AQUAfin was founded by the two-time Olympic swimmer and Bolles School alumnus, Nim Shapira. It is the largest privately held swim school chain in Florida, USA, with eight locations across the state.
Emler, established in 1975, specializes in teaching children how to swim through a fun, safe and effective approach. It offers a structured curriculum across 11 levels that focuses on both swimming skills and water safety. With over 60 locations throughout 15 states in the USA, Emler provides state-of-the-art facilities, including UV-purified pools and advanced air filtration systems. This ensures a comfortable and healthy environment for children and their families.
Oaklins Heritage in Jacksonville, USA, served as the intermediary and exclusive financial advisor to the seller in this transaction.
