ORAL PRESENTATION

ARTISTIC SWIMMING (:


INTRODUCTION

The Topic I’m choosing is artistic swimming. In this oral presentation you can know more things about this Olympic sport and meet some important people.
There will be some dialogues and biographies too. Enjoy it a lot!


A PROFILE OF ARTISTIC SWIMMING

Artistic swimming is a close discipline to swimming, with the aim to dance and make beautiful images in the water.
This sport appeared in Europe in the Second World War. It’s also probably that it came from USA where one famous actress showed in her films practising beautiful arts in the water.

Now there are some competitions and championships around the world. But the most important competition is Olympic Games. Sometimes there’re different categories: technical exercise and free exercise.

My favourite swimmer is Gemma Mengual, because she is very natural and creative in the water. She has won some prizes.


GEMMA MENGUAL

- She’s a Catalan sport lady
- She was competed in some Olympic games
- Now, she is a model too
- She started to swim when she was young
- She is the most important swimmer in our country
