The Nelson Reflections Synchro Club offers a variety of Recreational and Competitive Synchro Programs from September to June. (Summer Synchro Camps are available in July and August.) Programs are open to all. Learn Synchro skills and develop new friendships through teamwork.

All programs are run by highly qualified coaches trained through the National Coaching Certification Program. Our coaches were both nationally competitive synchronized swimmers.

Athletes will learn how to move in the water using music and choreography. Training includes both land and water time. Land training, designed to enhance strength and flexibility, includes cardiovascular training and flexibility training. Water training includes lap swimming, Synchro skills (figures) and routine development. All training is skill & age appropriate.

Competitive athletes compete in compulsory Figures as well as Solo, Duet and Team routines at competitions and water-shows throughout the year.

PROGRAMS:

Aqua Fun: Not available at this time

Many swimmers will start out in our Aqua Fun program. This is a program that was originally put together by Synchro Canada and has adopted many names throughout the years (Aqua Giggles, Aqua Squirts).
We have chosen to stay with Aqua Fun, and have made our own additions to the program content.

Basically the purpose of the Aqua Fun program is to provide the beginner swimmer with stroke improvement as well as an introduction to the basics of Synchronized swimming. They generally swim once a week for 1 hour/10 sessions in total.
