This was our second summer using Sunsational for swim instruction and we couldn't be happier. Our daughter (3 yrs old) and son (14 mos) enjoyed their time spent with Lisa M. Our daughter went from wearing a back-floatie to diving down for treasures on the pool floor. She learned the basics of several swim strokes and Lisa did a fabulous job of navigating toddler emotions with her creative adventure stories. Our son was hesitant to go to Lisa at first so she showed me several things we could do together to get him more comfortable in the water. By the end of the summer (when we were 16 mos), he was holding onto the edge of the pool, climbing up the stairs to get out, and keeping his mouth closed underwater. Will hope to connect with Lisa M. for next summer - she had the best way with the kids!

Carla is a fantastic swim instructor! She worked very well with two 3 year olds and they came really for in their swim and safety skills in a short amount of time. Carla was always punctual and communicated regularly. She has been a pleasure to work with and now we can be sure the kids are safe around the pool!

We had an amazing experience with our teacher Isabella Savage, who worked tirelessly to teach our sometimes difficult 4-year-old to swim. She was forever patient, upbeat, and creative with how she worked with our daughter. Our highest compliments to Isabella Savage and sensational swim school.

We've had a fantastic experience! In the first lesson, my twin boys were afraid to get their faces wet...and now a week later they are becoming their own confident little bubble guppies...best decision we've made for swim lessons! Thanks to our instructor, who was patient and reassuring they have truly grown their love and confidence to bring in the water. Each had their own apprehensions and she tailored their lessons so that each was addressed. Truly awesome..;)

I am so happy that I stepped out of my comfort zone this summer and contacted Sunsational Swim School. I couldn't swim at all or even float before (I had tried group lessons in the past). I took private lessons this time and my instructor for 12 sessions was Kyree Jones.

He was very professional and always on time. But most importantly I can swim now! Kyree was so patient and just a lot of fun to learn with. My goals were to learn the free style and be able to float on my back. I can now free style, float, breast stroke, swim on my back, push off (front and backwards) and more. I actually have three more lessons with him next week so he taught me all this in just 9 sessions, I can't say enough about Kyree. I'm 52 y/o and I can finally swim! He always adds something new each session. I have gotten so many compliments on my progress from neighbors and the life guards since we use the pool at my condo residence. I'm sure I didn't look like a success story on day one, but now I'm enjoying the pool with confidence. I have already found an indoor pool to continue my progress through the winter, I'm so motivated about going to the pool now, whereas I mostly avoided it before. Thank You so much Kyree and Sunsational Swim School!

Rebekah "Bekah" is absolutely FANTASTIC! My daughter was quite afraid of entering the pool without floaties, and after less than 10 sessions with Bekah, she is swimming totally floaty-free and has mastered floating on her back and holding her breath under water. I cannot say enough about Bekah's skill at coaching and teaching even the most reluctant of 5-year-olds...my daughter loves her, and she is a true professional. Bekah is also extremely accommodating with her schedule and availability. I am so glad we were paired up with her, and I hope that Bekah will help teach my son when he is old enough!

I think Amy is great. I am terrified of water and she is very patient and helps me overcome these fears. I am a senior and started swimming lessons several times before but could not overcome the fear of water and as a result did not continue. With Amy it is different, she encourages me to try and is excited when I do well. I can float by myself, stand up and lost the fear of water. I am so happy to be in the water and feel comfortable. I still have a long way to go before I can do laps in the pool but I am looking forward to that day and I am convinced and motivated that I can reach that goal.

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 Hyattsville, MD 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 Hyattsville, MD 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.
