Synchronized swimming
Synchronized swimming is a hybrid of swimminggymnastics, and dance. It consists of swimmers (either individuals, duets, trios or teams) performing a synchronized routine of elaborate moves in the water, accompanied by music. Synchronized swimming demands first-rate water skills, and requires strength, endurance, flexibility, grace, artistry and precise timing, not to mention exceptional breath control while upside down underwater. Developed in the early 1900s in Canada, it is a sport performed almost exclusively by women, although there is some participation by men. In its early form it was sometimes known as "water ballet".
