Private Swim Lessons

If you've ever watched group swim lessons, you've probably noticed a few things: students receive very little actual instruction, spending much of their time waiting at the side of the pool while the instructor works with one child at a time. Most group lessons are only offered once or twice a week, often so that the facility can charge recurring membership fees over time rather than condensing the lessons into the relatively short time actually needed to help a child progress
It's no wonder that many families are turning to private swim lessons. Our one-on-one swim lessons provide you the most personalized swim instruction available, allowing you to see progress in your ability at an impressive pace.Private swim lessons are the most effective way to develop water safety skills, learn how to swim and become confident in the water for a lifetime.

Why people choose Sunsational for their
Private Swimming Lessons

“
      We would recommend Sunsational Swim School to anyone! Our instructor Kari was always on time and great with our kids. Our 4 year old is swimming perfectly and will even dive in to get the dive rings. Our 2 year old can back float and swim under the water to the steps to get himself out of the pool. We are very pleased, even amazed at what Kari taught our children in 12 private swim lessons. Best $$$ we ever spent!

      We decided to try out Sunsational private swimming lessons for our four year old son and two year old daughter after having little luck with small group instruction at a local swim school the previous summer. The difference was obvious immediately. The kids LOVE their swim instructor. Chelsea Weedman, and can't wait to get in the pool every day. Besides the enjoyment factor the instruction was HIGHLY EFFECTIVE. My son was swimming (at least aquatically mobile) by the fourth lesson. A great school and a great instructor - thanks to both!

      I've been scared of water over my head my whole life and was very nervous but ready to take swim lessons as an adult, Bilaal Hakim actually made it fun! After just 6 private lessons I went from being totally terrified in the deep end of my pool to being comfortable and being able to swim and tread water. I would recommend Sunsational Swim School to any adult looking to learn how to swim!

Top Benefits of Private Swim Lessons

AGE-APPROPRIATE, FUN LESSONS

Entertaining games and exciting activities are at the heart of Sunsational Swim Lessons, making the process of learning to swim as enjoyable as possible for learners of all ages. Each student receives a Sunsational Skill Chart and Certificate, which tracks their progress through the lessons and recognizes their accomplishments.

QUICKEST WAY TO LEARN TO SWIM

If you're looking for significant progress in a short amount of time, private swimming classes provide the personalized attention and consistency required. Our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee means that your child will be able to swim in a matter of weeks, rather than months or years.

CONVENIENCE OF YOUR LOCATION & SCHEDULE

Private swim lessons near me! No more driving across town or interrupting nap time to go to swim class! With private swimming classes, you choose the location-your own pool, public pool, etc.-the day(s) of the week, and the time. Our instructors come to you!

LESSONS ADAPTED TO INDIVIDUAL NEEDS

Private swim lessons are inherently flexible, allowing your child to learn to swim at his own pace. Ready to move quickly to the next lesson? Need to slow down and work on an area of weakness? No problem!

BETTER VALUE THAN GROUP LESSONS

It's widely known that students learn better with smaller class sizes. In group lessons, you receive much less attention as the instructor has to divide her time among many students in the class. The result? You get very little direct instruction and may need many months of lessons to make any measurable progress. Private swimming lessons actually save you money by helping you progress much more quickly than you would during typical group lessons.

NO LESSON TIME WASTED

Learning is fun, fast, and focused during private swim lessons. You will have the instructor's undivided attention and fewer distractions than lessons at a public school.

It's a full service with great flexibility! I had my lessons with Jakub, who is incredibly encouraging and helpful. He is very positive and also very good at meeting the student at their level. I was struggling with my breathing and feeling comfortable in the water. He gave me great exercises that really focused on just my breathing and as a result, it as helped me reduce my anxiety and increase my confidence in my swimming abilities. Highly recommend Sunsational Swim School!

I am a 60 yr old who wanted to become a stronger more effective swimmer before a water vacation. I found Sunsational online . It was an easy enrollment.

My instructor Clare was FANTASTIC! My friend and I drastically improved our swimming in a short period of time . Clare helped us perfect our stroke, increase our strength and designed drills to improve the skills we would need for snorkeling and swimming in potentially rough water. So happy we had Clare as our instructor! Highly recommend!!

KIMBERLY D. has been a wonderful instructor to work with. She corresponds with me frequently, is easy to schedule lessons with, and, is always on time. We have had a few schedule changes and KIMBERLY has accommodated us very well. Kimberly is persistent, kind, patient, entertaining and a fabulous teacher. She is teaching our "19 month old" to be water safe, and, after 6 lessons the concept of holding onto the coping of the pool and moving sideways to the steps or climb out of the pool on her own is sinking in. Plus, I can't say enough about Sunsational Swim School, so easy to work with, great staff!!!!! Thank you Sunsational for sending us KIMBERLY!!!!! You truly are LIFE SAVER

I was very concerned with my daughter's reluctance to swim and dive underwater. She is 4 years old and her siblings are 9 and 7. When we first started her swimming lessons, We didn't think she was going to listen and follow the guidance of her swimming instructor, Alex. We were proven wrong!!!! His patience and swimming lessons are astonishing. We call him the " kid whisperer". Now, my daughter is not just a swimmer but a good one. I feel she may be even better than her siblings in such a short amount of time. Thank you so much Sunsational and Alex! You have given me peace of mind. I highly recommend Alex to teach great swimming skills to any child, no matter how challenging they may be!!!!!
