Our co-founder, Jon Foss, developed our program from the ground up with the vision of creating a learn-to-swim method which was not only significantly different, but more effective than other learn-to-swim approaches. The Foss Swim School curriculum is structured to teach fundamental stroke skills to create strong, independent and safer swimmers. All kids learn and progress in different ways. At FOSS, customized levels provide unique paths of progression for each student as they master skills and grow in age. FOSS swimmers learn alongside classmates of similar age, development, and skill level to create an ideal learning environment.
