At-Home Private Swimming Lessons Orlando, FL

Q: What is your Learn to Swim Guarantee?

Our Learn to Swim Guarantee promises that children ages 3 and older will demonstrate critical water safety skills after 12 private lessons. Specifically, they’ll be able to swim to the side of the pool after an unexpected fall. 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.

Private Swim Lessons
in Orlando, FL

There’s never a bad time to learn to swim in Orlando! Whether you’re out boating on Lake Apopka, making the short drive out to Cocoa Beach, or enjoying your own private swimming pool, you know that water is everywhere. Learning how to enjoy the water safely is a must for all residents of the Sunshine State, and at Sunsational Swim School, we bring those critical swimming skills to you.

When you sign up for private swim lessons with one of our Orlando-area instructors, you can rest assured that your child will quickly gain the skills needed to be safe in your home or community pool. Our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee means that your swimmer will be more likely to know how to avoid falling into the water, and how to turn around and get to the side if they do wind up in the pool.

Our Orlando swim lessons can help learners of all ages—infant, toddler, older child, or even adult!—to gain needed skills in a matter of weeks, not months or years like it often takes in group swim lessons. Before you know it, your swimmer will be able to approach water situations with confidence, from your home pool to the water parks at Disney and Sea World.

And, if your child is ready to take their swimming to the next level and join FSLA or one of the many other local swim teams, we can match them with an Orlando instructor with years of experience as a coach who can get them up to speed in no time. These same teachers can also help athletes training for a swim competition like a triathlon or even hoping for a qualifying time on a military swim test; just let us know your needs and we’ll find the best Sunsational instructor to help you get there!

Benefits of Private Swimming Lessons in Orlando

Focus on Water Safety

Because most drownings of young children happen in their home swimming pools, we prioritize teaching skills of water safety. Learning how to safely recover from a fall into the water by knowing where to find the ladder, turning around, and swimming back to the side is at the heart of our Learn-to-Swim Guarantee.

Convenient Scheduling

Need an early-morning swimming class or want to schedule two of your kids in back-to-back lessons? No problem! Our instructors schedule lessons according to your timeframe.

Customized Lesson Plans

No two students are the same, so our well-qualified instructors will make lesson plans that meet your child’s needs, using encouraging, gentle techniques to help them work through any fears they may have and quickly make progress in their ability to swim.

Home or Community Pool: Your Choice

Save time and money by choosing the location that fits your busy lifestyle. Sunsational Swim Instructors travel to your preferred community pool—or to your own backyard!
