Aqualillies is a professional synchronised swimming/ dance company founded in 2008 [1] with teams in California, New York, Miami, Las Vegas, Canada, France, and Australia. They are known as pioneers in the renaissance of water ballet as entertainment. [2] Their work has been seen most notably in the Coen Brothers' 2016 film Hail, Caesar!, Glee, [3] Jane the Virgin, [4] ABC's Splash, the TED (Conference), Miami Fashion Week, [5] Kim Kardashian Toasts The Emmys, and for Esther Williams at the Turner Classic Movies's Film Festival. [6] They also offer seasonal synchronized swimming fitness classes
The company was founded by Mesha Kussman, [7] a graduate of New York University (Experimental Theater Wing) in 2008 with the intention to enliven the Hollywood Pool Party scene with water entertainment. The initial company included a combination of former National Team swimmers and dancers who trained in swimming. The company's first residency was at the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. [8]
In January 2010, Aqualillies launched synchronized swimming fitness classes [9] at the Annenberg Community Beach House [10] (among other locations), offering training in basic synchronized swimming skills. [11]
