Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Tarpon Springs

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 Tarpon Springs 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).

You Choose the Pool

Your life often feels like it?s on fast-forward, right? Who wants to drive across Tarpon Springs in order to get to overfilled swimming lessons when a Sunsational Swim teacher can bring a private swim class to your home or favorite local pool?

Sunsational Clients Love Our Swimming Lessons

Rated 4.9/5 Stars From Over 900+ Reviews
Unfortunately, I had a very bad experience with water (near drown) and since then, I didn't want to be near water. I was scared to even allow myself to be fully in water. But it was a fear that I really wanted to overcome. So I contacted Sunsational Swim and within a couple of days, they paired me up with Apple, a professional Olympic swimmer. I was very wary before my lesson, not sure what to expect, but Apple was wonderful! She was so understanding, had so much patience, and just wanted me to be comfortable in the water. She constantly encouraged as I dealt with my fear, always saying I was doing a good job, and giving me the confidence to do it. I have taken 4 lessons so far, and although I still don't know how to swim or how to be in water, I am feeling much more confident. I don't see the water anymore as an enemy, thanks to my wonderful instructor, Apple. Thank you so much Apple and Sunsational Swim for working with me on overcoming my fear!

My 9 year old was afraid of water and we couldn't get him to learn swimming with 2 other schools. He has been learning swimming from Jennifer and within 10 days, he has completely transformed and loves water/swimming now. We can't thank you enough for the same

I had a great experience with my swimming instructor, Adriane and Sunsational Swim School. Adriane was very patient, made me feel at ease and was dedicated to teaching me how to swim. I learned so much in a short period of time and I am much more comfortable in the water. I would highly recommend Sunsational and Adriane as an instructor. Thank you!

Valrico, FL
Amanda is an AWESOME instructor. I am 51 and athletic, but never learned to swim. I booked private lessons and Amanda has taught me how to swim in just a few lessons. She is positive, patient, and great at breaking down key concepts into baby steps that I could easily apply. If you are looking to learn to swim, go with Amanda. Don't live with fear of the water or embarrassment about not being able to swim...work to overcome it with Amanda.

Palmetto, FL
Debbie is amazing! My autistic daughter was terrified of going in the water without flotation support. Within two lessons my daughter proudly ditched the floaties forever! Within six lessons my daughter is swimming across the deep end of the pool unassisted. Based on the progress my daughter has made with Debbie, I would highly recommend her to anyone looking to get their little one up to speed quickly.

Positive and Encouraging! An Absolute Success!

Sunsational Swim School is a brilliant company! I hired them, recently, so my girls could learn to swim, and was absolutely impressed and pleased with the experience. The swim coach who was working with us was wonderfully accommodating, and very flexible about weather-dependent rescheduling. She was incredibly positive, and she put a lot of effort into meeting my youngest (four years old) at her (nervous, intimidated) level, and encouraging her, in the water. I really cannot speak highly enough of their service, and would absolutely recommend them!

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.

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

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.

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.
