About Us

The Beginning

It all started with baby and toddler swimming courses and aqua fitness for pregnant women, initially offered through various partners. By autumn 2008, aquaphine began running its own courses — always with a focus on togetherness. Parents could take part in swimming sessions with their children, creating shared moments of joy and learning.

Growth and Development

As demand grew, so did aquaphine’s program. Over the years, we expanded our range to include swimming lessons for older children, advanced swimming courses, and family fitness offers. In 2011, we opened our first swimming facility, and since 2012, our main location at Erich-Weinert-Straße 145 in Berlin’s Prenzlauer Berg has become home to hundreds of families each week.

TOBEinsel – Expanding Beyond the Water

In 2024, aquaphine took the next step and opened the TOBEinsel — a new movement space located directly above our swimming school. On more than 500 m², we now offer a wide variety of land-based courses designed to improve coordination, endurance, and overall wellbeing for children and adults alike.

Our Philosophy

At aquaphine and the TOBEinsel, we believe in a holistic approach to physical development. We combine professional expertise with empathy, creativity, and a sense of community. Our aim is to create a place where families feel welcome, supported, and inspired.

Even as we’ve grown into one of Berlin’s largest private swim schools, personal attention and individual care remain at the heart of everything we do. This success is thanks to our dedicated team — and to you, our wonderful participants and families, who have trusted us for so many years.
