The New Canaan YMCA Aquianas
is a year round USSS and YMCA competitive synchronized swim team. The Aquianas
was founded on the belief that Synchronized Swimming can be an expressive
and creative outlet for young athletes within an athletic and competitive
environment. What began as a small group of nine swimmers has grown to
include beginning level swimmers in five Age Groups all the way to Elite
National Team level swimmers. The goal for all team members is to reach
their potential while having FUN! The
coaching staff brings a combined experience level of over fifty years.
They are a caring group offering direction and nurturing in a positive
learning environment. The coaching staff strives to develop positive values
and foster teamwork among athletes of every level. Our successes stem from
developing teamwork in and out of the water. The Aquianas develop winners
not only in the pool but also in life. Athletes compete in solo,
duet, trio, and team events as well as compulsory figures. There is a strong
emphasis placed on team. Routines are assigned based on the recommendation
of the coaches. Competition on the state, regional, zone, national, and
international level is offered to those who qualify.
