    I was soo shocked when I learned that they did not reach the bottom of the pool with the feet, I was naive to believe they would, I know lol. A very impressive and magnificent work!

      Marvin Omar Menjivar Alvarez Everybody thinks we can touch the floor of the Pool but when we do it we are discualified so that shows that Artistic swimming it’s not so easy like all the people in my school thinks🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m 13 and do Artistic swimming 8 years long😅

    I've been swimming for 6 years and was coached by the Olympian Stephanie leclair from the Canadian team. :) very proud :P I believe this sport is so under appreciated and no one understands just how hard it is. This video can give you a small insight into what it's like, but until you actually do it you won't understand. Posting this on Facebook? Indeed ;)
