SafeSplash Swim School Franchise Model Overview

SafeSplash franchisees run learn-to-swim programs for children and adults. The brand offers four formats. A Dedicated Location is a leased building with a franchisee-built indoor teaching pool, a seven-figure project driven by leasehold improvements and pool engineering; a SwimLabs technology package with video-analysis lanes adds to that. A Hosted Location instead teaches in pool space at a host facility such as a fitness club, costs a small fraction as much, and pays the host a share of revenue through the franchisor. Conversion formats let existing swim schools join at reduced fees and phased-in royalties. The owner may hire a trained Designated Business Manager rather than run the school personally, but someone must devote full time to it. The system dipped in 2024 and recovered in 2025, and a large block of affiliate-owned schools shifted to franchised ownership during 2025. Buyers should confirm which format a given school operates and its pool or host agreement.

Ideal owner profile

Owner or trained full-time Designated Business Manager running day-to-day operations

Experience leading part-time instructor teams and safety-critical programs for children

For Dedicated Locations, seven-figure capital and real estate or construction capacity

For Hosted Locations, a lower-capital operator comfortable sharing revenue with a host facility

Customer-service and enrollment focus to keep lesson schedules full year-round
