Thinknswim A swimming technique and strength training program for developing swimmers in Johnstown, PA.

This program employs an integrated approach, built on the premise that learning comes not only through continued instruction on technique and consistent feedback, but also through the spirit of community and cooperation that participants themselves demonstrate towards one another. Swimmers are encouraged to learn not only by intellectual understanding the basic principles and concepts of swimming

but also by kinesthetic awareness – what it feels like, what the muscles must practice and remember – in order to swim elegantly and efficiently, and fast. Sound technique, injury-free exertion, and effective biomechanics form the foundation of our coaching philosophy. General population youth and adults looking to improve mobility and functional fitness are also welcome. Program owner and coach, Zing Allsopp, holds certifications from the International Youth and Conditioning Association, the National Academy of Sports Medicine, the American Swimming Coaches Association, and the International Swim Coaches Association.

It’s NOT wrong or illegal — just different and potentially effective. I teach it, and I encourage swimmers to try it. Sometimes, just exploring a new movement pattern or skill can help improve existing skills and techniques.
