To become a synchronised swimmer you MUST:
-Have no fear of the water
The following are desireable but NOT NECESSARY traits of a good synchro swimmer:
-Strength in the water
-Upper and lower body strength
-Good sense of balance
-Good sense of rhythm
-Flexibility
-Background in dance/music
-Background in another type of swimming
-Patience and enthusiasm
Also, as a synchronised swimmer, you need to be tolerant of people of all races
and religious backgrounds and be willing to work as a team with them.
Synchronised swimmers should be judged on ability rather than race or religion.
There is no place for discrimination in synchronised swimming.
