Our Story

ICARE: Expertise and Commitment in Sports Training

Founded in 2019 by sports experts (BPJEPS training coordinators for over 15 years, trainers, coaches, etc.), swimming, and vocational training, including Mauro ANTONINI, Frédéric LEFEVRE, and David THIMEUR. ICARE quickly became a key player in the French aquatic sector.

National contribution against drowning

Drafting guidelines on aquatic ease (swimming for 4-7 year olds) for the Ministry of Sports : since its creation, ICARE has actively participated in the development of the national system to combat drowning.

Central training mission

More than a hundred Aquatic Ease sessions carried out since 2020 in mainland France and overseas territories: based on its recognition in the aquatic field, ICARE has trained thousands of professionals (sports federations, local authorities, companies, National Education).

Sports educators

In 2021, the team expanded, integrating new expertise (sports, rescue, adult training). This development enabled the launch of adult training courses, including State-recognized BPJEPS, preparing for the profession of sports educator.

Our mission: to provide individualized support for each learner.

We are committed to effectively developing the skills of future players in the sports sector, through practices adapted to their professional and personal needs.
