WHAT IS WELLSPRING?
Wellspring, at The Center's Dyas Family Therapy Pool and Wellness Center, offers an array of aquatic programs, each designed with the goal of optimum wellness for every member of the community.
Water exercise offers health benefits to people of all ages, fitness, and wellness levels. Exercising in the water presents a well-balanced workout that improves all major components of physical fitness:
|
The buoyancy of the water provides a low impact exercise that is easy on the joints, while the water’s resistance challenges the muscle and cardiovascular systems. In fact, due to the resistance of water, strength training and cardiovascular conditioning in the water are just as effective as land-based training.
For those suffering from joint or back pain, arthritis, osteoporosis, obesity, injury, or other conditions that make land-training painful and challenging, there is simply no comparison to the results and benefits of aquatic training.

The Severna Park Community Center will charge an annual registration fee of $25 per person (maximum of $50 per family), to help with system upgrades and ongoing building maintenance & repairs. The fee will be charged just one time annually, and will be good for 12 months from the date paid. Following the emergency pool renovations last month, we realize that at twenty-five years old, the possibility of repairs, emergency or other, are going to increase. Thank you for helping us to keep this center a place where you can safely gather, play, grow, and thrive!
