Sunsational Vetted Since 2026
Hello! My name is Alexis. I have been teaching swimming lessons since February 2025. I teach my students water safety, such as where to find the wall and how to climb out in case of a fall in. I also teach them how to hold their breath when going under and calmly redirect themselves to kick their legs to the bench. What makes me a great teacher is that I am gentle with all of my students, and I describe skills to them in more depth when they are extra nervous. I am my students' best advocate, for progress is key to success!

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 Maricopa, 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 Maricopa or across Phoenix Metro. 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 Maricopa, where backyard pools, HOA pools 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.

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.
