The Boys Can Synch Program is for boys who love to swim and want to try synchro! A class exclusive to boys will be lead as they learn the basics of synchro in a fun environment.
This program is similar to our Learn to Synch (L2S) program and designed for athletes to learn the basics of artistic swimming. We follow a modified version of Canada Artistic Swimming’s AquaGO! program as athletes work through 4 important pillars to aid not only in their development as an artistic swimmer but an athlete in other sports as well. The four main pillars we focus on are:
- Swimming Fundamentals
- Artistic Swimming Skills
- Athletic Abilities
- Flexibility
Our approach to AquaGO! is modified as we have allowed time for routine development within our classes and have adjusted other aspects (like length of the program) to support our coaching staff better and fit into the the culture of our club.
