Synchronized Swimmers With Differing Abilities
Synchronized swimming has welcomed athletes with disabilities (AWD) for over 20 years. Due to the buoyancy of the water, your child can enjoy a cardiovascular workout while enjoying music and expressing their artistic flair. MSSA is proud to offer a one-on-one AWD program to cater to individual needs and abilities. All disability types, special needs and genders are welcome!
Currently, there are swimmers with the following conditions participating in synchro programs worldwide:
– Amputees
– All types of intellectual disabilities
– Down Syndrome
– Developmental disabilities
– Neurological disabilities
– Brachial Plexus disabilities
– Epilepsy
– Cerebral Palsy
– Osteogenisis Imperfecta
– Spina Bifida
– Paralysis
– Brachial Plexus injuries
– Erbs Palsy
– Visually impaired/Blind
– Hearing impaired
– Cognitive disabilities
– Other Physical disabilities (seen and unseen)
AWD will swim once a week to develop basic swimming and synchro skill sets along with creating a routine to exhibit at our swim shows.
