Austin Angelfish Artistic Swimming Since 1990

Why Artistic Swimming?

1. It's a great way to build lifelong friendships with teammates and competitors.
2. It is a unique aquatic sport that develops grace, strength, and endurance.
3. Artistic (Synchronized) swimmers learn life skills such as: teamwork, time management, respect, commitment, perseverance, and co-operation.
4. Superior cognitive skills are developed through use of music, counting, memorization, rhythm, coordination, and visualization.
5. Mastery of complex skills, positions, and movements help to develop a swimmer’s sense of accomplishment and fulfillment.
6. Water sports are physically challenging but gentle on joints and synchro has a low risk of injury compared to most other sports.
