Come join us in a 3 sport adventure. We will explore swimming, waterpolo and synchronized swimming, focusing on training.

SUMMER Synchronized Swimming Camps are a full week of synchronized swimming excitement.

“JUMP IN”, our week long camp includes conditioning, flexibility training, synchronized swimming skills and performance techniques. Participants will be immersed in synchro, both in and out of the water. We create synchro costumes, watch synchro videos, and prepare for our Camp Finale Show.

MORE SYNCHRO: Our deep-water training camp gives participants a chance to learn the skills that will take them to the next level. We will focus on sculling techniques and upside down skills. Participants must have completed a “Jump In” Camp.
