EURONEWS - Mexican Para-Swimming Team Turns the Pool into Their Stage
Paloma Velásquez, a former artistic swimmer and psychologist, founded The Special Mermaids, a synchronized swimming team made up of athletes with diverse disabilities. The group blends the discipline of artistic swimming with expressive movement, creating award-winning routines grounded in trust, precision, and shared joy. More than a team, they’ve built a supportive community where each swimmer’s individuality strengthens the collective.
