About OneTeamMVMT

Why OTM?

Synchronized skating is a unique blend of artistry, athleticism and team sport — a combination that is very rare in the sporting world. While those in the synchro community are familiar with the many benefits of the sport, OTM was created in 2016 to advocate for the sport's growth, and help more people to discover its beauty and power. Enter OneTeamMVMT, where building and popularizing the sport is our primary goal. We want more people to engage in this dynamic sport and participate in healthy active living for life.

 

Where is OTM based?

OneTeamMVMT was founded by a dedicated group of former competitive synchronized skaters, coaches and parents in Canada. Despite being based in Canada, OTM is a globally-minded organization, focused on growing and advancing the sport worldwide.


Is OTM a Registered Charity?

As a globally-minded organization, OTM was granted Federal not-for-profit status in Canada, in November of 2016. OTM is also provincially registered in the provinces of Ontario and Quebec.

Who is OTM run by?

OneTeamMVMT was started by a group of synchro enthusiasts, who collectively shared such a passion for synchro that they wanted to find a way to give back to the sport for the sake of present and future skaters. Currently, OTM is overseen by an elected board of volunteers, and managed by an international team of over 30 individuals. The OTM teams includes current and former synchro skaters, coaches, parents, and professionals who share their expertise in order to elevate synchronized skating, worldwide.
