North Kitsap Synchronized Swimming Team 

What is Synchronized Swimming?

Synchronized swimming is a sport that combines swimming, dance, and gymnastics. Athletes must be good swimmers, must have technically correct and graceful strokes, and must have endurance and stamina to cover distances and hold their breath underwater at the same time. Athletes must be able to count music, move to the beats in unison with their teammates, and perform for an audience and pull the audience into their performance. Athletes must be able to move quickly, efficiently, precisely, and must develop coordination and strength. Alignment, core control, and extension are key concepts that synchronized swimmers involve themselves with during every practice. Synchronized swimming is fun and full of camaraderie. It is creative, the water being the medium. It is moving and spectacular.

And like all sports, it is developmental. It is a matter of beginning as a novice and climbing the staircase to improvement through committing to the learning, the practices, the team, and the goal.
