What is Synchro?
Artistic Swimming formally known as Synchronized Swimming, also called Artistic Swimming, is an Olympic sport that combines dance, gymnastics, and swimming. Together in teams, duets, or solos, athletes perform choreographed routines set to music that demonstrate their strength, flexibility, endurance and synchronization. It is a challenging, yet rewarding and beautiful sport
Why Synchro?
A synchronized swimmer builds endurance, strength, power, speed, agility, and flexibility through balanced training. It takes years to produce a world-class synchronized swimmer, yet swimmers at any level may enjoy and develop in our sport.
