The Japanese made a movie and 3 follow up tv series about synchro in schools.
It's all played by young actors who had to learn the moves during the filming.
Well worth a look, search for Waterboys.
The movie was made at a time when there was a lot of bullying of losers in Japanese schools, which was encouraged by teachers (the losers were holding everyone back) and led to lots of school student suicides. The Waterboys movie showed the losers getting into syncho and then pulling in the rest to produce an amazing Busby Berkley finale show.
