Swim Science Centerin Philadelphia, Trenton & Surrounding Cities
At the STRIVE Swim Science Center, located in the Moorestown Field House Facility, our goal is to combine the science of physical therapy with the real life experience of championship level swim training.
We do this to allow all levels of competitive swimmers to train without pain, without interruption of training and to enable them to race with the full confidence in their physical abilities and technique.
About Swim Science Center
At Swim Science Center, we want swimmers to achieve the maximum out of this great sport. More than any other exercise, swimming uses the greatest number of muscles in the body. In an Endless Pool, you swim against a consistent current which offers unique benefits over land-based exercise: improved strength and stamina with no trauma to joints, tendons, or bones. Swimming against a current also means no need for turning and pushing off. No matter your fitness level, it’s a much more concentrated and efficient workout.
Athletes will be evaluated by Dean Hutchinson, MPT and USA Coach. He brings 16 years of physical therapy experience along with years of Elite Swimming and 20 years of Elite Coaching at both collegiate and club levels.
As a Division 1 All-American at Auburn, Dean understood and was committed to the concept of self-evaluation and peer teaching.
Through his pursuit of a graduate degree in Physical Therapy, Dean not only studied swimming technique in the context of his academic work, but as a licensed Physical Therapist, he has also amassed countless hours of clinical experience managing swimming athletes’ injuries, resulting from a pounding repetition of poor mechanics.
Coach Hutchinson has trained under the best coaches in the world and swam for the best coaches in the world. Coaching has been his personal lab to test what works, what doesn’t work and what causes injury and failure for our aquatic athletes.
At STRIVE Swim Science Center, you will learn to eliminate bad habits which make swimming painful and build strokes and technique that will make you successful at all levels.
