Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Alpine

Focus on Water Safety

Where do most young children drown in Alpine? Sadly, the answer is “in their own swimming pool”. For this reason, our lessons prioritize the “Sunsational Safety Sequence”: turning around and reaching the side of the pool after an accidental fall into the water. We make that sequence the heart of our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee for students ages 3 and older.

Convenient Scheduling

Trying to fit kids into group lessons can often feel like fitting a square peg into a round hole! With Sunsational, you set the day of the week and the time that is the best fit for you. Weekdays before lunch? Weekend afternoons? Multiple children in back-to-back lessons three days a week? Absolutely!

Customized Lesson Plans

Most swim lessons take a one-size-fits-all approach to instruction, but Sunsational lessons are personalized for each swimmer. Our teachers recognize and honor individual needs, differences, and strengths, and their one-on-one lessons are tailored to help your child progress in the way that is most effective for them.

Home or Community Pool: Your Choice!

You select the pool that fits your active lifestyle, whether that’s down the street or at your home. You’ll soon see how much money and time you save when you have a Sunsational Swim instructor that comes to YOU!

Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews
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

This service, and our instructor Emily C. specifically, has been an absolute game changer for our 5yo son, Jack. After just a couple of lessons, Jack was totally comfortable floating by himself and treading water in the pool - a couple lessons after that and the kid is swimming from the shallow end to the deep end (30ft away) all by himself! His confidence is amazing to see and he now plays Marco Polo in the deep end with his older brother and joins the big boy diving games! We could not be happier with the Sunsational Swim School as well as Emily's fantastic attitude and instructor skills.

My kids had a great experience with Kailey. She was very encouraging and positive. My son cried yesterday after his last session with her :(. He really enjoyed his time with Kailey and was sad to see it end. Thank you Kailey for being so great with my kids! It was a very beneficial experience and we will be sure to recommend Kailey and the Sunsational Swim School wherever we can.

"We adore Miss Elly (Elitza Gergova) who has taught four of our boys to be safe and confident in the water and whom we have unofficially adopted into our family! Before swimming lessons with Miss Elly, the oldest of the four (7) was bouncing and running through the pool, keeping his head out of the water at all costs, the second (5) absolutely hated any water in his face any time (even in the shower), the third (3) was a dedicated hip-sitter in every pool making it hard to enjoy any pool ventures since the fourth (1) was a necessary hip-sitter. Now the first swims better than his older brothers, the second loves the water and is a little fish, the third wants nothing to do with my hips, and the fourth thinks he can walk on water and, therefore, spends all his pool time trying to do just that. Thankfully, our awesome Miss Elly has taught them each to be safe in the water. And she has given them the BEST foundation for learning how to swim with real strokes and proper breathing! Definitely chose Sunsational if you want your kids to learn fast and, more importantly, learn well." Liz B.

We are blown away with sensational swim school!! My kids are 1,5 and 7, all different skill levels. Caroline (my kid's swim instructor) has been AMAZING. She is super fun, energetic and so good at what she does. My kids loved her immediately. She came prepared with lots of little pool toys and was very professional. Two of my kids have hearing loss and Caroline had no problem communicating with them through demonstration and illustrations that she brought. She is truly exceptional. I have been so impressed with her and would highly recommend her and Sunsational Swin School.

I want to thank Sunsational Swim School for pairing my 12 Year old daughter with the most amazing swim instructor EVER! They connected us with Monica and she was exceptional. My daughter was trying out for Jr. Lifeguards in Carlsbad, CA. We didn't have a lot of time before her test, so I called in a rush to find someone who understood what the requirements would be. Monica clicked with my daughter the second she met her and came very prepared with strong lesson for each session. The best part is my daughter passed her Jr Lifeguards test and had the best scores out of everyone that tried out that day. Monica exceeded my expectations!! Thank you Monica and Sunsational Swim School.

We feel very fortunate to have our 14 month-old training with Miss Jaye. She is persistent with our ambivalent son, and he has made incredible progress in the swimming pool these past few months. She is caring and experienced. She did her utmost to accommodate my schedule so that I could be present for the lessons instead of relying on our nannies solely. Thank you very much Miss Jaye!

I was incredibly skeptical of the 12 lessons "learn to swim guarantee" for both my 5 year old and 3 year old, after just 12 lessons, can swim the length of our pool. They have zero prior water experience. None. And now they can flip onto their backs to take a break/rest and flip back over on their tummies when they are ready to swim on! It is amazing!! Much of their success we owe to our instructor Kailey. She is serious but gentle. When my kids' tears in the first couple of lessons were getting to me, she assured me that tears are normal and we could forge ahead -- if I was comfortable doing so. I believed her and I'm glad I did.

We just extended our lessons today.... another 18 to continue forward momentum. So excited we found Sunsational and Kailey!

Heydi is the best swimming instructor we've ever had. She has a keen understanding of the strokes and a great instinct of the building blocks of swimming. She is calm and encouraging and got my 11 year old interested again in swimming lessons. My seven year old skipped to the pool knowing she was coming! He loved his lessons with Heydi! And let's just say, that's not how it was at other swim schools. Thanks Heydi for putting the joy back into swimming for my children!

We loved our swim teacher Vicktoria! She is patient and fun with the kids
yet has just the right amount of firmness in teaching. She clearly knows
what she's doing! She's also flexible with scheduling, which is fabulous.
It's been amazing watching how fast my kids have learned. In just 12
lessons my 7 year old went from doing just the doggie-paddle to knowing 3
strokes and jumping in to swim. My 3 year old went from being terrified to
even be dunked or held on his back to independently backfloating and
swimming underwater. He used to cry and run away at lesson time and now he
gets right in the water himself. Today he even asked if Vicktoria could
come back again. So awesome.

Frequently Asked Questions

What age groups do you offer private swim lessons for?
We offer private swim lessons for swimmers of all ages, starting as young as 6 months and going through adulthood. Whether your child is a baby, toddler, or school-age, or you’re an adult looking to overcome a fear of water, our experienced instructors create personalized lesson plans to suit every age and skill level.
How long does it take to learn how to swim with private lessons?
While every swimmer is different, we proudly offer a Learn to Swim Guarantee for children ages 3 and up. Most students meet their water safety goals within just 12 lessons. Private swim lessons allow for one-on-one instruction, so learning is typically much faster compared to group lessons.
What are the benefits of private swim lessons vs group?
Private swim lessons offer personalized attention, ensuring each student receives tailored instruction based on their unique learning style and needs. In a private setting, the instructor can focus entirely on the swimmer's progress, allowing for faster skill development and addressing specific concerns or fears. There are also other considerations when you ask "are private swim lessons worth it?" In most cases, we find the answer to be yes.

We specialize in private, at-home swimming lessons. Our swim instructors come to you and service all of Alpine, CA and surrounding areas.

What is your Learn to Swim Guarantee?
Our Learn to Swim Guarantee promises that children ages 3 years and older will demonstrate critical water safety skills after 12 private lessons.

If your child hasn’t reached this milestone, we’ll offer up to four additional lessons at no cost to ensure they meet the goal.
What is the cost and how many lessons are typically required?
The cost of private swim lessons varies based on the package you choose, with options ranging from 6 to 18 lessons. For most students, we recommend at least 12 lessons to build essential swimming and water safety skills, and we proudly offer a Learn to Swim Guarantee within those 12 lessons for children ages 3 and up.
