ARTISTIC SWIM at the J
Formerly known as synchronized swimming, Artistic Swimming offers the opportunity to learn new swim skills while increasing confidence & balance and get a great workout while learning to dance in the water. Artistic swimming is a hybrid form of swimming, gymnastics, and dance consisting of swimmers performing a synchronized routine of complex and dynamic underwater movements (known as figures) and arm movements in the water accompanied by music.
Artistic swim coach Kellagh Frank is the Assistant Aquatics Director here at the J. She has had a passion for swimming her whole life. She began Artistic Swimming at 7-years-old and competed locally, regionally, and nationally until she was 16, swimming for the Ohio Coralinas.
She is now the novice, intermediate, and AWD (athletes with disabilities) head coach for the Coralinas. She is a certified level 3 coach and coaches all levels at National Junior Olympics. Kellagh is also a certified LGI as well as water safety instructor.
