'Adrienne is wonderful! She always arrives on time and starts and ends each lesson as scheduled. I think my almost 2yo twins had some PTSD from ISR last season but they warmed to Adrienne quickly and now love the water! I highly recommend Adrienne!' - Shannon L.

Coach Charles was extremely professional and friendly with our little girl. His patience was also unmatched as she was getting used to him and the techniques. She learned a huge amount about water safety and grew in confidence with each lesson. Highly recommend Coach Charles and Sunsational Swim!

Loved our instructor, Maddie! Enrollment and coordination was very easy. Once lessons began I only heard from Sunsational one additional time, which might not be ideal for some but I had no issues so not really a complaint. Love the skills chart! Wish there was a guide I could follow to know exactly what the instructor was supposed to cover but each student is different. My 2.5 took 12 lessons, and although she's very mature she still did not 'learn' how to swim. I'm curious to know how the guarantee would work if she were 3 years old.

We live in Arizona and had the pleasure of having Gloria. She was so patient and kind with our son! He has improved so much with his confidence in water. Having someone come to our own backyard to teach was a bonus! Definitely recommend Sunsational Swim school!

As a retired competitive swimmer, I have not lost my love. I find myself training in the pool weekly because I believe theres always room for growth and improvement. My goal as a swim instructor is to provide the necessary skills required to stay safe in and around water. My hope is always that on top of these life savings skills I aim to share my love for water with as many individuals as possible. I feel the most free, the most at peace, and the most myself when I am in the water.

Got questions?

We have answers. What makes private lessons better than group classes?

We are so confident in our private, one-on-one instruction that we offer a Learn-to-Swim Guarantee for all students ages 3 and up!* We guarantee your child will be able to resurface, turn around, swim back to the edge of the pool and grab the wall unassisted after they complete their Learn to Swim Guaranteed package. If your child completes their lesson package and hasn't achieved the agreed-upon milestones, we'll work with you to provide up to 4 additional lessons at no extra cost until they do. This program is our commitment to building a foundation of safety and confidence for your child in the water.

Our pricing is transparent and based on the swim lesson package you choose. Packages are available in 6, 12 and 18 lessons with options for 30-minute, 60-minute or longer sessions for multiple students back-to-back. Every package includes a certified, background-checked instructor who comes to your home or preferred pool. Because lessons are private and personalized, you’ll see faster progress and greater value compared to group classes. Start a registration to build a package and see an exact, no-hassle price on options best for your goals and budget.

We make scheduling easy. Morning, afternoon, evening, and weekend lessons are avaialble 6AM-8PM to fit your family’s lifestyle. 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 Ahwatukee Foothill Village, 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 Ahwatukee Foothill Village 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, is certified in CPR, and insured under our company insurance policy. All our instructors are carefully selected, experienced swim instructors vetted by our recruiting team. Many also have specialized experience working with infants, toddlers, special needs learners, or adults overcoming fear of water. In Ahwatukee Foothill Village, 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.
