Private Swim Lessons
in Sarasota , FL

When you live in beautiful Sarasota County, home to some of the most beautiful white sand beaches in the Gulf of Mexico, swimming is a way of life! Whether you are snorkeling in The Keyes, or making a splash in your own private pool, the Sunshine State never disappoints. The opportunities to soak up the sun and make a splash are nearly everywhere we look, and so learning to be safe in and around water is one of the most critical skills for a child to develop.

At Sunsational Swim School, we feature private swimming lessons throughout Sarasota County for all ages— infants to adults! If you are wondering if our classes are near you, the answer is yes! When you are matched with a Sunsational swim teacher, arrangements are made to meet at either a public pool nearest to your location, Lido Pool, Arlington Park, and Selby Aquatic Center for example— or lessons can be held right in the comfort of your own backyard!

Progress is made quickly when you have personalized instruction from your Sunsational swim teacher. Within a matter of weeks, your swimmer will demonstrate the skills necessary to be safe in the water— or we’ll provide four free lessons to help them complete our “Sunsational Safety Sequence” successfully. That’s our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee for all swimmers ages 3 and up!

Infants, babies, and toddlers under 3 have their own special swim programs that focuses on water safety and prepares them for the next level.

Speaking of the next level, if you already know how to swim and you want to step up your competitive edge to take your place with the Alexandria Masters Swimming, the YMCA Swim Championships, or any one of the many outstanding swim teams in Sarasota, and even if you just want to shave some time off your best laps— Sunsational Swim school will match you with an accomplished swim coach to streamline your stroke mechanics, and sharpen your competitive edge.

Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Sarasota

Focus on Water Safety

In Austin, most drownings of young children happen in their home swimming pools, so we prioritize teaching water safety skills in our private swimming lessons. Being able to safely recover from a fall into the pool by knowing where to find the nearest wall, how to turn around and swim back to the side is at the core of our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee.

Convenient Scheduling

Need an early-evening class or want to schedule three of your kids in back-to-back lessons on the same day?Absolutely! Our Austin-area instructors schedule swim lessons according to your timeframe.

Customized Lesson Plans

Every swimmer is different, so our highly-trained teachers make lesson plans to suit your child’s needs, using gentle, proven techniques to help make rapid progress in their swim skills while reducing any fear of the water they may have.

Home or Community Pool: Your Choice!

Sunsational Swim Teachers travel to your preferred community pool in the greater Austin area—or to your own home pool!
