Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Houston

Our Priority Is Water Safety

The majority of child drownings happen when they are unable to safely exit the water after a fall into the water. For this reason, our Houston swim lessons emphasize teaching kids to find the side of the pool, turn around, and swim to the side.

Scheduling at Your Convenience

Want to plan your infant’s lessons before lunchtime? Definitely! What about an evening session for a reluctant adult that’s always wanted to learn to swim? We can do that! The time of day that best fits your busy life is a great time for a Sunsational Swim lesson.

Lesson Plans Unique to You

Our teachers use gentle encouragement and a progressive approach to plan lessons to meet each swimmer’s unique needs and rapidly learn the skills needed to be safer in and around the water. We’ve seen such consistent results with our program that we offer a Learn-to-Swim Guarantee package for ages 3 and up (infant and toddler lessons excluded).

You Choose the Pool

Your life often feels like it’s on fast-forward, right? Who wants to drive across Houston in order to get to overfilled swimming lessons when a Sunsational Swim teacher can bring a private swim class to your home or favorite local pool?

Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews
Our instructor Erika was fantastic. She's really high energy and does a great job connecting with kids. She knows when to be supportive and when to push harder. Our son is 10 and swims well but some of his strokes needed refinement. Erika did a terrific job. Now his strokes are really smooth and he's fallen in love with swimming all over again. We highly recommend Erika for anyone looking for a swim instructor.
Customer Review On yelp
Erika has been an exceptional swim instructor and my daughter absolutely loves the lessons with her. She is patient and really cares about the progress of her students. I am very glad to have her as my daughters swim instructor and happy we went with Sunsational Swim School.

Firas has been really great with my three boys. Having three boys who all want attention can be demanding but Firas has been really patient with them. The boys really look forward to their lessons with him. My oldest two boys have really improved their strokes and are really comfortable in the water. My middle son has gained more confidence and swims all over the pool without any hesitation, which is completely opposite from where he started. Firas makes each lesson into a game which has pushed my older two boys to try even harder and they have a ton of fun, not even realizing they are learning and improving with each lesson. My youngest son, who likes to do his own thing on his own time, has really taken well to Firas and is now going underwater without hesitation and swimming short distances. Considering he has never had swim lessons and didn't want to put his face in the water when we started, I'm impressed. Overall we have enjoyed working and learning from Firas and would definitely recommend him. Hopefully Firas is still teaching next summer as we'd love to use him again.

Hector turned Beckett (4) into a little fish! He worked hard even when our child was difficult and remained patient and caring. He did a great job!

Erika is doing a wonderful job! She is so patient and a wonderful teacher. We have really enjoyed her working with our children.

Victoria is such a great instructor! She knows how to entertain and motivate kids who are rather shy like my boys. She makes sure to mix fun and serious stuff, like diving games and lap swimming so that kids don't get bored. She is very punctual and responsible, so she is never late and when she is stuck in traffics or something, she makes sure to let me know. She is very open and responsive to our needs. When our kids got sick, she willingly rescheduled more than one lessons showing her understanding. I highly recommend her!

Trudy was great working with our two-year-old granddaughter. Trudy was very upbeat and made the lessons fun, She helped our granddaughter overcome her fear of water. We recommend Trudy to anyone wanting private lessons in a home pool. We will call her again next year.

We absolutely loved our swim instructor Eva. She was always very punctual and professional. Our one year old loves the water and has learned to kick, grab the wall of the swimming pool and even blow bubbles! His progress has been remarkable and we have Eva to thank for that.

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.
Where is your pool located?
We specialize in private, at-home swimming lessons. Our swim instructors come to you and service all of Houston, TX and surrounding areas.
What happens if I don’t have a pool at home?
No pool? No problem! Many of our clients use a neighborhood or community pool for their lessons. Our swim instructors are happy to meet you at any safe, local pool of your choosing. .
What qualifications do your instructors have?
All Sunsational Swim Instructors are certified in CPR, First Aid, and Water Safety. Many of our instructors in Houston, TX also have additional certifications in lifeguarding, water aerobics, and infant swimming. We ensure that every instructor has at least two years of teaching experience and undergoes rigorous background checks. Every instructor is fully insured and covered under Sunsational Swim School's insurance policy.
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. Specifically, they’ll be able to swim to the side of the pool after an unexpected fall. 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.
