Why our students and parents love us!
5-star rated by parents and swimmers alike
Communication from Sunsational was on point. They walked us thru every step and kindly made us aware of what would be happening. Our instructor, Mr Qaun, went beyond my expectations. The swim lessons were for my two boys aged 3 & 2. They were less than happy to get into the pool with a stranger. He was extremely patient, kind, and gentle with them every lesson. We signed up for the 6 lesson package and there has been a huge improvement in their confidence with swimming.

Hi everyone, I'm Bahar, and I'm super excited to be your swim instructor! I love helping kids and parents feel confident and have fun in the water. Can't wait to make a splash together! I have been working as a swim instructor and lifeguard since May 2006. I always enjoy having fun with kids and seeing them grow comfortable in the water. I have taught many students to learn how to swim at high levels. Some of them have been chosen for the national team. I use a unique method that helps children get comfortable in the water faster. After they feel relaxed, I teach them step-by-step how to swim with proper technique, just like professional swimmers. The very first skill I focus on is helping them swim confidently in both the shallow and deep water.

Every package includes a certified, background-checked instructor who comes to your home or preferred pool.

You choose the days, times and number of lessons per week that works for you. Because all lessons are private, scheduling is completely flexible and can be adjusted for vacations or weather. In Lake Elsinore, our instructors teach year-round, so you can start lessons whenever you’re ready.
Our core service is providing private, at-home swim lessons. Your trained instructor travels to your home pool, community pool or aquatic facility anywhere in Lake Elsinore or across Inland Empire. If you don't have a pool, our instructors are happy to meet you at any safe, local pool of your choosing. If using a facility pool, be sure to have authorization to have your Private Swim Lessons there.
Absolutely. Every Sunsational swim instructor is rigorously vetted with comprehensive background checks and is certified in CPR and first aid, and insured under our company insurance policy. Our instructors have a minimum of 2 seasons of teaching experience before being certified. Many also have specialized experience working with infants, toddlers, special needs learners, or adults overcoming fear of water. In Lake Elsinore, where backyard pools, community centers make swimming skills essential, you can trust that your instructor is not only qualified but passionate about building water confidence and safety in every student.
We understand if you're concerned about selecting the right swim instructor for your lessons, because we are too! Our full-time, dedicated matching team carefully reviews your registration and hand selects a swim instructor for your lessons based on your swimmer's age, goals and your schedule. You'll receive a detailed instructor profile with experience, certifications, and reviews. If you'd like to request a specific instructor in Lake Elsinore, we'll do our best to accommodate.

If you're not completely satisfied with your first lesson, just let us know, and we'll restart your lessons with a new instructor or refund your unused lessons, your choice.
For baby and some toddler lessons, parent participation is encouraged for building water comfort. For older children (typically ages 2+), parents are not specifically encouraged to be in the water, as our one-on-one private instruction is designed to build independence. However, we always require a responsible adult to be present on the premises for all lessons with minors. If you have specific preferences or concerns, our team is happy to accommodate them in your registration. We tailor each lesson to your comfort and goals.
