SYNCHRONIZED SKATING
Synchronized Skating, or “Synchro” is a specialized discipline of skating involving groups of eight or more skaters performing various group formations and maneuvers. The objective is for the team to perform as one unit executing circles, blocks, lines, wheels and intersections in unison to the music, while demonstrating quality edges, power and flow. Synchronized Skating accommodates skaters of every age and skill level. There are physical, social, and personal advantages of joining a synchronized skating team as an adult, including:
• Fitness and health benefits
• Social interaction and team spirit
• Skill development
• Stress relief and recreation
• Performance opportunities
• Personal growth and challenge
• Lifelong learning
Elite Skating Centre is proud to have an Adult Synchronized Skating Team SISU
