About the club

Swimming, gymnastics, dance and music in one

Synchronised swimming is more than a sport – it is elegance, strength and teamwork in one. The girls learn to control their body in the water, feel the music, cooperate and build mutual trust – values they will use not only in sport, but also in life.

Training takes place in Bratislava. Girls can start with us from the age of 5 – from complete beginners to athletes representing the club abroad.

We accept girls from the age of 5. Previous experience with swimming or dance is not required – all you need is enthusiasm and a willingness to try something new. Beginners are warmly welcome!

She should at least be able to stay afloat and swim a few metres on her own in any style. Our coaches take an individual approach to each girl and step by step develop her swimming skills, movement abilities and synchronised swimming technique.

Training takes place in Bratislava: at the Plavecká Akadémia in Devínska Nová Ves, and at the Iuventa and Majerníkova pools in Karlova Ves. We'll confirm the schedule for your group at sign-up. Beginners usually train between 17:00 – 18:30.
