We’re excited to announce that Hudson Valley Swim is diving into Jacksonville, Florida! Local entrepreneurs Sindy and Roz Fernando have joined our franchise family and will be opening two swim school territories, with the first location launching in November 2025 at LA Fitness on Jacksonville’s Southside.
This expansion brings our safety-first, progress-driven swim program to more families in Florida, offering individualized instruction for swimmers of all ages and skill levels.
Meet Jacksonville’s New Owners: Sindy & Roz Fernando
For Sindy and Roz, this isn’t just a business—it’s a mission.
“Youth enrichment programs have always been a passion of mine,” said Sindy. “As a parent, I know water safety is a critical life skill our community needs. This purpose-driven opportunity is something I can pour my heart into and know I’m making a difference.”
With a shared dedication to education and family-centered experiences, the Fernandos are ready to bring Hudson Valley Swim’s trusted curriculum to Jacksonville, ensuring that children and adults alike gain the confidence and skills they need in the water.
A Commitment to Community
