Ann's Swimming School has been teaching children to swim in Miami for over 40 years! And it is a family business run by the Truby family. Ann had 6 children and all of her kids and their spouses and her grandchildren, have at one time (or still do) worked at the school! Her daughter Susie has been with her from the start and has owned the school for over 20 years. Ann still teaches a few classes, but retired from the business running part of it! We have never advertised! It's all been by word of mouth! Something we are very proud of! 

          

      HOW IT ALL BEGAN

      Ann-Sofi Sundin, as her name was then, has been in deep water ever since she was 4 years old. Then at 16, Ann- Sofi was already a veteran and a winner for her club SKK in Stockholm, Sweden and the swim team leader of her high school. The desire to swim the English Channel was always in the back of her mind because she had been groomed for this by the legendary Swedish long distance swimmer and channel crosser Sally Bauer.

However, another love came between her and the channel, an American scientist, Henry Truby. They married, had 3 daughters in Sweden, moved to the United States and had 3 sons.

• Of course Ann-Sofi couldn't stay out of the water. She didn't just teach her 6 children to swim but gave lessons to neighborhood kids and girl scouts and more. Then she started going to people's homes giving private lessons.

Eventually she began giving small group classes from her home pool and Ann's Swimming School Inc., was born and has been growing ever since.

All of her children have been involved with the swim school at one time or another, but her daughter Susie Truby has been with her almost from the start.
