4th Annual Back 2 School Event in partnership with was just an amazing event.

From water safety stations, helping children become better swimmers, haircuts, water slides, backpacks, school supplies & many vendors this year was remarkable.

Also to have Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz show up and support Shana and these children was an awesome experience to hear her speak to us about the importance of water safety.

116 children died from drowning situation in 2025, this year in 2026 that number is at 79 and it’s only August. Take advantage of the resources that Diversified Swimming to help your child get swim lessons.

Good luck this year to all the students that are going back to school next week and we pray you all have a great school year!

We are thrilled to announce the launch of a vital new division within our ecosystem: Tackle The Stigma, born from an exciting partnership with Kidz In Shape. This initiative is dedicated to supporting young people and student-athletes as they navigate mental health, academic pressures, and life transitions.

The Inaugural Event

We are kicking things off at the highest level! Tackle The Stigma’s first speaking engagement will take place on June 16th with the Eastern Michigan University Football Team.

Meet the Leadership Leading this charge is Marlon Llewellyn, the older brother of Seymour Loftman (Founder and Owner of Kidz In Shape). Marlon brings a wealth of expertise to this mission, with over 20 years of experience as an educator across public, private, urban, charter, and post-secondary institutions in the Indianapolis, Indiana area.

Why This Matters: Confronting the “Gray Area”

So many athletes quietly struggle to balance the intense pressure of performing both in the classroom and on the field or court. Mental health challenges affect 1 in 5 adults in the United States, and athletes are far from immune.

Tackle The Stigma is designed to bridge the gap by providing actionable resources, impactful speeches, and hands-on classes. Our core focus is helping athletes navigate “The Gray Area”—that challenging, often overwhelming space between an athlete’s final play (whether in high school, college, or the pros) and their first steps into the “real world.”

“The transition out of sports is a profound identity shift. We want to ensure no student-athlete has to walk through that door alone.”
