Summary
To bring a handicapped person into the water, you need to figure out how to adjust your exercises or your playing to the difficulties, which might be of psychological/mental, physical or social origin. And combined with that, you need to know how to use or avoid the influence of water. And last, but not least – you have to make it a positive experience, a time of joy – a place for increasing the value of life.
