What is synchronized skating?

Synchronized (which is commonly shortened to synchro) skating is a competitive sport involving a team of 12 and 24 skaters who perform highly practised group moves in perfect unison to music. In fast-paced routines, skaters form circles, lines, blocks, wheels and intersections choreographed to allow for expression and interpretation of the music. Teams are judged on these elements in addition to their speed, program difficulty, style and artistic expression. We have one adult team and one or two teams for under 21s:

The Adult Fusion team formed in the second half of 2009 and has members aged from 20 upwards. In their short time together they have already proved to be a successful team and would welcome new members.

The under 18 team is also a recently formed team with many new members. They are training hard and hope to do well in future competitions. New members would be most welcome. All that is required is to have passed the Skate UK courses which are offered at most ice rinks.

Historically our teams have done well at all levels.

Synchro skating combines the beauty, elegance and difficulty of freestyle skating with the advantages and excitement of a team sport.
