My name is Selena. I began teaching swim lessons in 2010 at my local YMCA where I was also a lifeguard. I became a senior instructor there and began doing private lessons at people's home the following summer. Since then, every summer I have offered swim lessons. I've worked with kids as young at 2, coached a swim team of teens and taught adults as well.

Certification N/A
Im the fun-loving teacher that every student enjoys and loves to work with! I love teaching children as I can easily connect with them to properly help them reach their swimming potential. Ive worked with hundreds and hundreds of students from infants to older adults. With more than 10 years of swim instructor and lifeguard experience, I know how to help each student as best as I can from the experience Ive gained over the years from various aquatic programs. I first learned to swim as a child after an incident at the pool, which then gave me such a love for the water once I learned how to swim. My goal is to make sure I continue to pass on the gift of swimming to as many people as possible to ensure the water safety of everyone.

Hi! My name is Adam Gross and I cant wait to meet you all! From a young age Ive always been drawn to the water, and at 8 years old started playing Water Polo. From then I would dedicate almost 17 years to the sport, which led me to success in college and the international and professional arena, as well as coaching. The water is second nature to me.

In Studio City, 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 Studio City or across SFV / Los Angeles. 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 Studio City, 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.
