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.
