About the Campus

A place where children grow, learn, and thrive

Dear parents, Welcome to the FITKids & FITTeens DAMI SWIMMING CAMPUS, where for 20 consecutive years we have been dedicated to fostering healthy lifestyle habits, teaching swimming skills, and supporting the healthy growth and development of children and youth.

Every child deserves a summer filled with joy, healthy habits, new friendships, and experiences they will remember forever. Our campus is not just a place to learn how to swim — it is a safe space where children grow, strengthen, and develop their skills, surrounded by the care of experts who look after every moment of their day.

During June and July, children and youth aged 4 to 14 stay in mini-groups at the indoor and outdoor pool complex of the Thermal Riviera Ilidža, with three healthy meals a day and diverse activities.

They are cared for daily by a team of dedicated sports educators, swimming instructors, nutritionists, and the program supervisor, Prof. Dr. Damira Vranešić - Hadžimehmedović.
