Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews
We have had a great experience with our instructor from Sunsational for home swimming lessons in Miami. Yoelvis ("Joey") is amazing! I cannot recommend him enough. He is wonderful with the kids (ages 5 and 3)- patient, excited, encouraging, flexible, dependable, and is always smiling. Our kids have made incredible progress in a short time and it is completely due to Joey. The kids look forward to the lessons and are enjoying the pool and swimming more than ever before. His personality and swimming experience make him uniquely qualified to be an outstanding swim instructor.

We recently put our two kids in private lessons with Sunsational and we could not be any happier with the program. Our instructor Madison was exceptional!!! Her level of patience and professionalism helped our younger child get over her fear of swimming so much that she is no longer dependent of her floaties. We highly recommend her and this company to any family looking to teach their little ones to swim.

I located a Sundational Swim School Private Swim Lessons online. Everyone I spoke with was very professional and responsive. They are very organized. They were able to match us with an awesome swim instructor in Miami. The instructor was also very professional, prompt and did an excellent job in teaching a very young child new beginner swimming skills. She worked with our schedule and did an excellent job. I would definitely recommend both the company and the swim instructor, Matison.

When I was 9, I almost drowned at the beach at one of my best friends birthday party. The experience traumatized me and I have been terrified to swim ever since. So, at 38 I decided it was time to learn to swim. My instructor, Bill, has been AMAZING! We are only on the 5th lesson but I'm already swimming the full length of my home pool in 10.9 seconds!!!!! I have also learned the freestyle and breast strokes. I can't sing his praises enough!

My 2.5 yr old daughter really enjoyed her swim lessons with Michal. She has grown more comfortable in the pool, and she has a basic understanding of swimming. Michal was punctual for his lessons, and he adapted the swim lessons to my daughter's skill set.
Customer Review On yelp
I am extremely satisfied with Matison's level of professionalism when working my 2 year old son. My son is very active and had never been in school so I knew swimming lessons were going to be a challenge. Ms. Mati was always patient with my son and always spoke to him in an easy to understand manner. I have a pool so was very concerned about water safety. I am very appreciative of her. Thank you Ms. Mati! Valdes Family

Kaleigh B. is a wonderful swim teacher for my 1 year-old son. She puts him at ease in the water and makes the lessons lots of fun! I am thrilled with his progress :)
Customer Review On yelp
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.
Customer Review On yelp
I have been very happy with our instructor, Eva. My son is 2.5 years old. He was comfortable in the water, but needed to be taught to swim and to lift his head to take a breath.
Eva did a great job at teaching him important water survival techniques... which was my main concern. He is able swim comfortably. I wish I could attach a video.
Customer Review On yelp
I had a great experience with Eva. She was gentle and kind which is appreciated because my daughter was only 16 months old. She made my daughter love the water. Couldn't ask for more. Thank you, Eva!

The cost of private swim lessons varies based on the package you choose, with options ranging from 6 to 18 lessons.
