While we initially had issues with finding an instructor that was a good fit for our toddler, we did eventually find one. Sunsational was very helpful and worked with us to find a the right instructor. Abbie has been amazing. Our son really enjoys his lessons with her and has made great improvements. He is 16 months old and is kicking, going under water, and loving the water. Abbie is so kind and easy going. She doesn't force our son to do anything that makes him uncomfortable. She has been very flexible with scheduling and making changes. Even during our lessons if T is getting fussy, she understands and we end the lesson a few minutes or so early. I highly recommend this company for swim lessons. Thank you Abbie and Sunsational!
Our instructor Miss Shelley was amazing! She was so great with my son and his little cousin and before we knew it both of the kiddos were actually swimming across the pool - neither had done so before and were scared of putting their heads underwater until she showed up. She's amazing with kids and brings so much expertise to the pool. We will definitely sign up for more lessons with her next summer!
Both of our swim instructors from Sunsational (Ashley and Reilly) were wonderful. We could not believe the progress that my 3-year-old made in just a few weeks this summer, going from clinging to my neck to swimming across the pool on his own. And he loved going to his lessons because he was having fun. The instructors were easy to work with, great with kids and a pleasure to have around. We are so grateful to Ashley and Reilly and highly recommend them both.

I love Sunsational swim school after I had this amazing swim instructor named Elizabeth. She has taught My one year old so much in the past few weeks. It is amazing what my one year old can do now in the pool. I will be recommending her to my friends and family now In the Austin area.
David B. is a wonderful instructor and has truly transformed my 6 year old son who was terrified of the water and refused to even put his head in. We had tried various swim schools and private lessons in the past with no luck. My husband and I are in shock as now he is a completely different child, doing cannon balls, begging to swim every day, and making it across the pool. My older son (who already knew the basics), has learned the proper technique and has gained a lot of speed and stamina. Admittedly I was skeptical of the other testimonials but they are absolutely true! David is a miracle worker and we are so grateful not only for the critical safety skills my son is learning but even just loving the water. It is clear he is VERY experienced not just as a former competitive swimmer and coach but as a parent who gets my boys. He was the perfect fit for our family- thank you Coach David and Sunsational for the ideal match! We couldn't be more pleased. Highly recommend.
Because of our positive experience with Marie W. in 2016, we resumed private swim lessons with Sunsational Swim School when the weather warmed up in spring/summer 2017. Fortunately, Marie was available to instruct our son again, and we continued with her (I think it was 12 sessions or so) until the end of the summer. As before, she was excellent! All of the positive things we wrote before (e.g., great energy, very friendly, adaptive) continued to be true, even during those times when our son was not very cooperative. We continue to highly recommend Marie as a swim instructor and hope to work with her again!
Teresa was a great instructor. My four year old daughter learned at an incredibly fast pace. She made continual progress from lesson to lesson, and became a great swimmer in just 12 45 minute lessons. This program is very efficient. I couldn't imagine my daughter learning more in such a short period of time. It is well worth the money and the time savings. .
Sunsational Swim school was amazing!! My son's coach was Marie W. and I seriously can't say enough great things about her! She was AMAZING! My son is 2 & 1/2 and he's a tough customer. Marie was patient, kind, fun, & gave 100% every lesson! She played fun games and came up with on the spot ideas to help get my son engaged and interested. Right away he trusted her and bonded. He couldn't wait to go to swim lessons every day to see Ms. Marie! Highly recommend Marie!!! Thanks for everything Sunsational Swim and Marie!! Thanks to you, my son is swimming like a fish!
SO happy I took a chance and booked Sunsational Swim School and that they connected us with our teacher, Mrs. Frances. My 5.5 yo boy is sweet, sensitive, and very cautious. Mrs. Frances has made such a strong effort to teach him swimming with this in mind. This makes swimming lessons incredibly enjoyable for everyone. My son is excited to see her each time. Mrs. Frances is always on time and is great at communicating. We appreciate her so much.

I grew up on the coast of Texas. I began teaching private swimming lessons in high school in our backyard pool, ages 3-adults. This became my summer job and has continued into adulthood.

Hello! My name is Omar. I've taught swim lessons for about 6 years now, from ages 1 to adults. I have been teaching gymnastics and martial arts for around 7 years now to ages 3 to adult. I feel learning how to swim is extremely important for all people to learn, especially children. Learning at a young age will help cement their confidence in the water as they grow, and will give parents peace of mind in case an accident near water occurs. I look forward to teaching you or your family!
