Maybe you have heard of “Endless Pools”? Imagine your own miniature swimming pool. It can be installed almost anywhere, indoors or outdoors, and may be used all year round. Equipped with a counter-current system, it’s the perfect workout place to stay fit no matter what the outside conditions are like.
According to surveys by the DLRG (German Lifeguards’ Association), one out of four adults in Germany cannot swim. This may have different reasons, e.g. a missed swimming course as a child, fear of water or people coming from a culture where people don’t usually learn to swim.
No matter what the exact reasons are for someone not being able to swim, most people affected have one thing in common: they want to do something about the situation.
The ability to swim can save lives – either your own or someone else’s. Additionally many adult non-swimmers may be embarrassed to admit this to their peers and often conceal the fact that they cannot swim.
