As of September 25th, the SwimGym Social Distancing instructions will no longer be applicable since most corona measures are being lifted by the Dutch government.
We will remove waiting spots, safety screens and oneway traffic protocol on pool deck. We do ask you to stay at home if you experience any health symptoms.
15 minute check-in
Our 15 minute check-in protocol remains unchanged and is part of the SwimGym house rules:
• Arrive 15 minutes prior to your activity, including Laps and Personal Training.
•Check in with your tag after the reception staff indicates the changing room is available.
•Access may be denied by our reception staff if you arrive too late.
•Be present on pool deck no later than 5 minutes prior to the start of your activity.
Our check-in protocol serves to guide incoming and outgoing traffic, to be able to clean the changing rooms and to start swimming activities on time. We thank you for your cooperation.
