The Arizona Aqua Stars is a nationally recognized, year-round synchronized swim club. For almost 30 years the Arizona Aqua Stars has been developing girls into nationally accomplished athletes in the sport of synchronized swimming. AAS was started in 1983, by Linda Witter, now head coach of The Ohio State Collegiate National Champions and former head coach of the U.S. Olympic Synchronized Swimming Team. Our team is now led by head coach Jill Parr. She was the 2008 West Zone Coach of the Year, the 2009 13-15 National Team Assistant Coach, and the 2010 Junior Developmental Coach of the Year. Since Head Coach Jill Parr joined the Aqua Stars in 2005, our team has become a National force in Synchronized Swimming! Jill and her staff have coached our athletes to 7 National Age Group Championship Titles and 10 placements on USA National Teams. This is more than all other Arizona clubs combined! Jill has hand-picked her coaching staff to ensure that every swimmer gets the high quality coaching that the Aqua Stars are known for. Our team philosophy is that even our youngest swimmers deserve excellent coaching. It is imperative to any athlete learning synchro that they learn using proper techniques in order to reach their full potential.
Aqua Star competitive team programs welcome a wide range of abilities from the first year swimmer with no experience, to the swimmer competing at the elite level. If you have never tried Synchro, you could begin with our classes and clinics, if you have already tried, or have competed as a synchro swimmer, please contact TerriLynne Collins to find out how soon you could be an Aqua Star too!
