Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Ocala

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 Ocala 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).

Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews

A+++ Instructor & Lessons! I only have positive feedback to deliver about our swim instructor, Emily! She has been so kind, patient, and flexible with our child, who has sensory issues that affect his confidence to swim. Emily has also been great at communicating with us between lessons reguarding schedule changes, weather issues, etc. She is a confident, positive person & just great with our kid. He didn't want to go swimming at all at first, and now he gets right in to the water with her! We feel so lucky that she's our instructor!

Customer Review On customer lobby

We've loved having Emily come to our house and work with our daughter on her strokes. She wanted to join a swim team, but didn't know all of the strokes and lacked confidence. She's enjoyed her lessons with Emily and looks forward to her classes. My daughter is improving with personalized attention.

Terri D on yelp

Emily was great, my daughter had a lot of fun. She made a huge amount of progress in just a few weeks.

Jesse S on yelp

My daughter was a timid swimmer but loved the water. We signed her up for a few private lessons with sunsational. The instructor Vanessa was amazingly patient and gave her the confidence to swimin in just a few weeks. We highly recommend!!

My instructor Yvonne was fantastic. She was my biggest cheerleader through the whole process. Her gentle approach was very encouraging. I have recommended her to friends as well. Choosing to learn how to swim as an adult was not an easy decision, but so glad I made this leap.

Customer Review On yelp

I am very pleased with Sunsational Swim School. My children have greatly progressed over the past 12 lessons. Vanessa was such a great instructor- punctual, professional, and made my kids feel at ease. I cannot believe how much more confident they are in the water now. Thank you!

I just have to say that Vanessa was the absolute best I could have asked for. Both my children were terrified of the water, I could barely get them in the pool. Vanessa worked with them at their pace. She encouraged them, helped them, and had extreme patience. I feel so much safer with my kids being around pools now that they have spent time with Vanessa. She was exactly what we needed. Thank you.

Customer Review On facebook
