Synchronized swimming is not water Ballet. IT has set international rules and regulations that standardize it while increasing difficulty. It is competed in. It is guaranteed difficult. It is done with the purpose of athleticism rather than showiness.

Why should you do synchronized swimming?

From Canada synchronized swimming, or water ballet as it was known in its early years, moved to the United States. The sport received its first big boost in 1934 when it was part of the World's Fair in Chicago. Shortly afterwards, the United States Amateur Athletic Union recognised the sport and national championships began. By 1948 synchronized swimming was a exhibition sport at the Olympics, but it was forced to serve an extended apprenticeship. After five appearances as a non-medal sport, synchronized swimming made its full Olympic debut at Los Angeles in 1984.
