trip here as much as i did. what about you? what's your opinion? feel free to write your thoughts and the comments, the synchronized swimming, the speed that stands, the elegance and grace is and the women competed. but now for the 1st time, man will also be allowed to take pulse. the crew tube side is particularly pleased about this. the 27 year old is currently the only man in the gym and national synchronized swimming team. on this, i co bought this. you have to be acrobatic and not joe. you can express yourself artistically with the choreography is missing time. the old expression involves us . it's also the reflective mobile. we do a lot of fitness training on a routine, less up to 3 minute users. of course, you also need to bit of stamina because the underwater lots cuz i'd have to hold our breath. so how did they choke,

manage to become the most successful gym and synchronized swimming? how does he react to print to this is a gay man in a female dominated sports. and with he managed to win a medal at the european championships. the destroyed bag of tents, swimming complex interest in a training ground performance sent for jim and swimming. this is wes could choke trains with the nationals quote for the european championships in belgrade. before entering the cops and the choreography a faster hust in the gym. the, however, the majority of his training takes place in the pool that you've spends up to a talent in the will. so with his old female team,

they practiced acrobatic elements such as this, which are particularly challenging is few minutes on the 1st performance, the minutes i feel incredibly comfortable with the goals is up some of the things they've made me feel. so welcome. and i meant of a big brother, we don't just different by gender and, but also by age. and i think i'm the oldest by 3 or 4 years. but it's nice we complimenting to the well and always have something to laugh about. most of my less and less known among women, that's the tool. if this is now quite normal. but how does a women feeling about having a man in the national team? this has that he's not stronger than us and can support is very well when it comes to listing. for example, we've done that with his strength and other ability as it naturally makes a lot of sense the to through this and stop racist us. i don't think the support

would become any more unfair is more men join and because men also have their weaknesses that they bring with them this from an image and agility is always a difficult for them. but yeah, that is why i think that men and women actually come to mind each other quite well in the water. unfortunately, the gym and team did not qualify for the olympics at the head of the squad is on a very national coach, stephanie mox, who used to be a synchronized swim a self and has been coaching, split your for a few years, training together, women and men is incredibly enjoyable for me because it's very conducive to a healthy team. you know, they support each other, they keep it to the grind it. and that's really great to see if the question is, is there a difference between training a mine or a woman in synchronized swimming? then i'd say yes, that's a serious difference. but in terms of physiology alone, that's how the body works, where the center of gravity is for us, women,

it's more on the hit from and it's much higher where the small of the back becomes broad choice, right? as a codes, you have to rethink things in order to understand that one technique count works for both men and women, the voice of and not as also phone for the team from germany. leading the way to 2024 europe and championships in belgrade are a sensation for joseph and his team. when gold in the acrobatic routine category, the 1st time in the 50 year history of synchronized swimming in germany. it's an incredible achievement. i'm one that makes good feel sweet, was julie could you learn to swim at the age of 6 and started with height? the only thing is, tyrants discovered his great supporting, talented, an early age. and by 10 he had moved to a sports boarding school invited and he took policy in various european youth championships under the age of 18, competed in his 1st international competitions. but how did you guys some how you

doing things to synchronized swimming system? i was so happy with high diving in and i found a new sense of purpose in synchronized swimming line. and i also realize that that was developing that it was making progress. i hadn't really felt that in previous years, and that really motivated me to keep going. and then of course, the aspects that weren't there in high diving the off history and the music music. i also had another phone with that a. so that is all such as possible. in 2021 split your entities competitive korea is a high dive and made his 1st attempt synchronized swimming, which has been opened to men internationally since 2015. very soon he and his pump number showed some of became one of germany's top teams in 2023. he and the national team came 2nd in the free combination at the european championships in cub scouts. yeah. and that's the middle of those using the world. so maybe realize that

it's a beautiful medium on i feel comfortable enough is especially the feeling of being completely surrounded by walton because i especially when diving on the default, the video that i'm moving around in the water is also something very, very special. i find the very beautiful when you glide through the wall to pushing yourself forwards with undulation, isn't for me. that also makes me feel free. somebody something to sort of quiet here. that's the last olympic sport to be a female or single sex was not a good sign. we live in times where we talk about diversity and variety and inclusion includes your profession. it should be a, given that any support can be done by both genders or by anyone. however, you define yourself. you know, it wasn't it today, but the scene here. so this decision is long overdue and to step in the right direction because with the others together they still put yours is openly gay, became mouse age 18 and has a boyfriend's a gay man who competes in

a women's port escape code for prejudice and discrimination. how does split choke deal with it? touch this as a swans or some of them ask them. and so she might think homosexuality and competitive spot can be a sensitive topic. um, there are lots of comments on that hertz 1st, but once you've experienced it a few times, you get over it to some point of my laptop. then the statement that to me about in addition to competitive sport for 2 of these currently studying from most is degree in physical engineering at the technical university of but, and then you'll recognize as many parallels between synchronized swimming and the laws of physics. the physics offended this physics is always takes place in sport and can synchronized swimming of cause. it has a lot to do with buoyancy. we always have to push ourselves own out of the water out of especially when we swim, is a teens. and then we do the lifts in this respect,

you could say the physics and my studies are also a little reflected in sports in his free time switch over the votes himself to a hobby that he discovered for himself on instagram a few years ago. crocheting and missing, in addition to some scarves and gloves, his favorite things to make a smoke, cigarettes and cuddly toys we have to surface out. it really helps me a lot during stressful times. i take off an hour in the evening and then grab my knitting and crochet things, and i am most myself in my world, but jogging is for over people meeting always for me here. it's a good way to switch off. he prefers to give his hand made creations to his teammates and good friends, such as messiah coon offense. he's one of his best friends, and often accompanies him to competitions. michelle is really proud of his friend feature of the is coming off. i knew him from high diving and having followed his progression to synchronized swimming. and i'm totally amazed at how he's managed it

or not everyone can do that. so it's really impressive. a soft and as you know, as of somebody but likely to michelle, his oldest of experience. discriminatory and hurtful situations in support. in his case football, it's come. allison a came from a very, very hit to 6 and background is good. i played football in the village and everyone that was sent to sexual and, and, and in the ninety's early 2000 is how it wasn't all that big, modest and all this new stuff. but of course the number one and so in football was a u g. for back to the po, accompanied by his best friends if we chose, takes punch in the gym and championships with his sports club is the bedding in berlin. a total of 11 teams compete against each other. before things get serious, all the teams to have practiced about without costumes, the teams. they're also highly motivated and ready to give it their own.

now it's we chose and his teams turn the switch tube systems and support his photo every moment. the freak son is a success with only minus the cups in the end, the jury has to decide the state was exhausting. but the energy was right. we had phone, we went well together, was a team. and the fact that we've now got through without any major mistakes is great, and we really please the plates from his coveralls so happy that the tool if is now a permanent team member who, sorry,

it's what i have to say. it was actually normal, just like so. i just noticed any difference, not really. as we integrate it really well into the team, we always have a lot of fun with him in my purpose crossing team as well because he was part of his family. now it's time for the jury to do that for its verdict, and the more difficult the routine, the more points the team can achieve. the results, the tools and his teammates finish in 2nd place and the team is didn't like the change in the ends. even stephanie marks, it is also the case to se venting is pushed into the move to establish the business i'm so i think we simply have to open the top. i left it must be up to the clinch whether he wants to include one man to man or for man. i believe that should simply be no guidelines or limitations because it depends on where i have potential. so

which country i come from? i do not currently the best when it comes to who i send to the olympic games performance. some potential should be decisive, not gender. organization is serious, but definitely see myself as a role model before i think it's a sport and the benefits men and women coming together in this respect is actually my dream to motivate boys and men to get me to try too much income. but i can also role model and play in the tweet you've continues to fight for success. and some more recall, let's see in the, in good shape our heart for the body's life giving rhythms,
