Synchronized swimming is an outstanding all-around development sport that combines athletic prowes in graceful movements together with a full range of musical appreciation and choreography. The sport has tremendous benefits for young girls and adults - from keeping fit to learning teamwork in an incredibly rewarding environment. The sport promotes the health and growth of the swimmers through participation in team oriented training and competition. Each member is expected to learn and practice synchronized swimming techniques, teamwork, responsibility, and sportsmanship in an environment of dedicated effort and fun.
