Sorry for off-top: need help finding a place to train for Synchronised swimming

Hello everybody!

I am moving to Dubai later on this year and trying to find a synchronised swimming sclub for my little girl. Tried looking on the net, but don't seem to find anything. Do you know anybody who's doing synchronised wimming in Dubai or Abu Dhabi?

In fact, any information on synchro in UAE will be greatly appreciated!

Go to your user CP. Click on send message and in the To: slot type name. Tab to message box & create message. Salethefish just replied w/ no help but try Islandsands. By her posts & chat she's very experienced in the area (if not the world). Best of luck!

Cool Re: Sorry for off-top: need help finding a place to train for Synchronised swimming

Info: Synchronized swimming is an Olymic style sport where women (don't know any men who do it) as singles, pairs, and teams "dance" in the water using athletic swimiming & water treading prowess to create beautiful patterns.

Synchro seems like a damned hard thing to do, especially the team events. Hats off to you guys.

I swam competitively and played water polo and the girls who did synchro could really hurt you in a match--swimming or wrestling.
