Synchronised swimming is a superb sport as it involves all parts of the body and allows you to do ballet and gymnastics in the water. You need to be flexible, powerful and mentally tough. But you can also be creative and make up moves that you enjoy. My main inspiration is my first swimming coach, Adele Carsen. Without her, I wouldn't be where I am today.
I am even more excited about taking part in the Games in London since my second visit to the Olympic Park last week.
The Park has come a long way since I last saw it, and London 2012 is going to be the most amazing event ever! Of course, I might be slightly biased seeing as it's in my home country! We are already in preparation with the help of some excellent coaches from Canada and Italy. In total, we are training around 42 hours a week, spending most of this time in the pool. And we are improving our ranking every year.
I'm really hoping that London 2012 raises the profile of synchronised swimming as at the moment it's not very popular. The sport really deserves some recognition as it is so unbelievably difficult and challenging. Please give it a go! Join a club!
