Private Swim Lessons
in Dallas, TX

Compared with temperatures in the rest of the U.S., it almost always feels like summer in Dallas—so it’s never the wrong time for swim lessons! Whether your child dreams of someday competing in the Dallas Open Water Swim or just being confident enough to make a splash at Ray Roberts Lake, Sunsational Swim School can match them with the ideal instructor to help them with their swimming skills.

Rather than spending money for months on end, hoping to see your child finally learn to swim, you can relax at home while watching them make significant improvement in key water safety skills in weeks. Your Sunsational Swim teacher will provide personalized, one-on-one lessons at the pool you prefer, anywhere in the greater Dallas area—no more fighting traffic from Carrollton to Duncanville just to be in group swim lessons with too many students!

Our swimming lessons in the Dallas area consist of private, customized classes, allowing students to learn water safety skills with patient encouragement and sequential instruction. Especially with our infant and toddler lessons, we emphasize the ability to avoid falling into a pool, and how to turn around and swim to the side if they do wind up in the water—what we call our “Sunsational Safety Sequence”.

We even back our methods with our exclusive Learn-to-Swim Guarantee for kids 3 and older: your child will demonstrate mastery of that sequence by the 12th lesson, or we’ll provide up to four complimentary lessons.

Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Dallas

Our Focus: Water Safety

Our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee emphasizes each student’s ability to turn around and swim back to the wall after an unintentional fall into the pool. Swimmers throughout Dallas have learned to be safer in their own backyards with Sunsational’s private swim lessons, learning these critical skills in the comfort of home swimming pools.

Scheduling at Your Convenience

Private swimming lessons scheduled at the time that works best for YOU are the ultimate in stress-free swimming in the greater Dallas area. Whether you have multiple kids that you want to schedule back-to-back or an adult in the family that needs lessons on their lunch break, our instructors can accommodate your calendar!

Individualized Lesson Planning

We understand that every swimmer brings a different set of skills and challenges to the water, so our personalized lessons help each student to conquer their fears and make real progress in their water safety skills. Not only do our infant and toddler classes help even the youngest swimmers to be able to turn around and get to the side of the pool, but our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee (for kids ages 3 and up) provides up to four extra lessons at no charge if your swimmer hasn’t mastered our “Sunsational Swim Sequence” by the 12th class.

Which Pool? You Decide!

From Arlington to Rowlett, our Sunsational instructors will work with you at your favorite pool, whether it’s down the street or just outside your back door.

Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews
We were so happy to find Sunsational Swim School and be able to have someone come to our house to teach our 3 year old grandson to swim.
They picked the perfect instructor to meet our needs. Christina R understood how to work with a three year old by using songs and references from his favorite shows and characters. Our grandson did so well with the one on one lesson and is now able to swim to the side of the pool and get out on his own. Our goal for this summer was definetly accomplished.

Ms. Kim is simply amazing!! In just a few lessons our son was swimming without floaties, he's confident in the water & learning something new at each lesson. And she has created a special connection with our son. He can't wait for his lessons. We could not be happier with Ms. Kim!!! She is fantastic!!

Coach Kelly was perfect for my 2 and 4 year olds. She worked on getting them comfortable with her, promoted fun activities that got them engaged, and improved their swimming all at the same time. Perhaps the greatest compliment is that my oldest went to a group swim lesson and told me she like "Ms. Kelly the best".

Kelly has been a wonderful instructor for our 4-year-old daughter! She is organized, reliable, punctual and best of all has an amazing ability to quickly build trust with her swimmers. Her positive spirit, warmth and tremendous heart shine through in every interaction we have with her. It is clear that she loves children and is passionate about teaching them how to have fun in the water while being safe first and foremost.

After one lesson one year old girl was like a fish in water. We took the 12 class package and it was worth every penny.

Cheyenne was great! Our son loved the pool but was very tentative and was nervous to try to learn to swim. Wouldn't even put his face in the water. After a couple of unsuccessful attempts at public lessons we decided that a personal instructor would probably be better. After just two lessons Cheyenne had our son jumping into the pool with enthusiasm. He was definitely more nervous once she got to "the deep end" with him, but she was so patient and caring with him that she had him swimming with confidence by the time the lessons were complete. Thanks so much Cheyenne!

Tucker was absolutely AMAZING with our almost 3-year-old. He took her from swimming with floaties to swimming proficiently around the pool, under the water, and diving to get toys off the bottom in just 18 lessons. She loves him!! He was patient, gentle, reassuring, and built trust with her but also pushed her just enough to achieve the growth and confidence we see in her now in the pool. Could not be happier with our investment.

Our instructor, Marni, has been the perfect instructor for our 3-year-old son. He's pretty stubborn and scared of putting his head underwater. And luckily, Marni is as patient as can be with him, such a calm nature, which is exactly what he needs. It took a couple of lessons, but she was able to earn his trust, and he's well on his way to learning to swim. He's even excited to show us how he can dunk his head underwater!
