We have had a positive experience with Sunsational. We love the flexibility of when and where to do our lessons. And as for our instructor, Stephanie, she is a star. She is very, very patient and kind. She uses various ways and little 'games' to encourage my son. She's gentle and understanding, but also firm when necessary. My son isn't a fan of the water, but with Stephanie's patience, we have made great progress from very scared to even stand in the water to starting to swim with help. I can't praise Stephanie enough!!
