Our Priority Is Water Safety

Because most drownings happen when a child is unable to exit the water safely after a fall into the pool, our Tampa swim lessons focus on teaching kids to find the side of the pool, turn around, and swim to the wall.

Lesson Plans Unique to You

No two swimmers are the same, so our teachers use a gentle, progressive approach to help every swimmer overcome any fears of the water and quickly learn the skills needed to be safe. We’re so confident in our approach that we offer our exclusive Learn-to-Swim Guarantee package for ages 3 and up (infant and toddler lessons excluded).

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.

There are also other considerations when you ask "are private swim lessons worth it?" In most cases, we find the answer to be yes.

We specialize in private, at-home swimming lessons. Our swim instructors come to you and service all of Tampa, FL and surrounding areas.
