Out To Swim London Angels, Synchronised Swimming
About Out To Swim Artistic Swimming
In April 2009 Out To Swim added a fourth discipline to its aquatic repertoire: artistic swimming (formally synchronised swimming). Our aim is to provide coached artistic swimming to men and women, for those who want to take part in the sport for general fitness, as well as for those who want to train for competition. We were the first swimming club in the UK to offer the sport to both men and women.
Training
What artistic swimming involves
Artistic swimming develops advanced water skills, including strength, endurance, flexibility, coordination and precise timing, as well as breath control. Many swimmers come to us wanting to try something different and to take on a new challenge. Although it helps to have experience in aquatic sport, dance or gymnastics, most of our swimmers are entirely new to these sports and slightly apprehensive on their first visit.
How to Join
Whether you are looking to play water polo for the first time, have experience under the belt, or are thinking of joining from a different Out To Swim discipline, we're really pleased to welcome new players.
If you have never played before you can find details of our Learn to Play program below. For players with experience, you will be invited to attend an assessment session so we can understand your current ability. From there we’ll be able to get you involved at the right level for you.
Whether you have played before or not. To help introduce you to what can seem like a bewildering game, we offer your first three water polo sessions free.
Please note that our current waitlist for new learners is over a year long with the next intake not expected until September 2026. If you have previous experience, then you may be able to join earlier.
