Abstract
By the methods of interview and literature consultation, this paper analyzes the action arrangement and design of Artistic Swimming. The research shows that although the existence of water allows the appearance of only half of the swimmer’s body in the team Artistic Swimming, the reasonable action design and arrangement can still make the complete set of movements novel, diversified and artistic. In the specific arrangement and design, the pictographic action can add to the resemblance of the action to realistic items both in "shape" and "manner"; story action can show a certain theme and situation; difficult action is the concrete embodiment of athletes' ability and strength; original action can make the complete set of action unique and more attractive; coordinating action reflects the athletes' mutual assistance and cooperation. Through the cooperation between swimmers, the styles and types of Artistic Swimming are enriched, and so are the action arrangements.

Summary
Action language expresses the inner impulse and thought of life through body posture, human expression (including facial expression) and the time, space and gravity changes of human body in motion. As for the arrangement and design of Artistic Swimming, because of the existence of water, the movements of Artistic Swimming are seen through the half body exposed above the water, which can only be displayed either by the upper limb movements while the legs are paddling underneath, or by the leg movements while arms are rowing underneath. It appears that the half body movement is the whole body language of Artistic Swimming. Analyzing the different designs of various Artistic Swimming movements and exploring their types and characteristics can enrich the theoretical research of Artistic Swimming, and provide practical reference for the arrangement and action design of Artistic Swimming in the future
