University of Michigan Artistic Swimming Club
​Come swim with us!
​​
Join our artistic swimming team and dive into a world of creativity and teamwork! Whether you're a beginner or have experience, we welcome all skill levels to come and express themselves through the beauty of swimming. Enjoy the thrill of performing, make new friends, and enhance your skills in a supportive environment. We have three amazing coaches with over 25 years of coaching experience combined, and who have all swam for Michigan themselves!
​
Truly no experience is needed! Many of our current swimmers started the sport in college and enjoy being a part of a variety of routines. Our only physical requirements are that you need to be able to swim 200 meters freestyle and tread water for 5 minutes! If you have any questions about these requirements, feel free to contact our head coach Shelby at scpete@umich.edu.
