Movements education in physical education is an instructional approach that emphasizes


developing students' motor skills, body awareness, and movement patterns through a variety of
activities. Rather than focusing solely on traditional sports, movements education explores
fundamental movements like jumping, balancing, stretching, and coordination, encouraging
creativity and self-expression.

how to control their movements efficiently. This method helps improve overall fitness, spatial
awareness, and cognitive development, fostering a lifelong interest in physical activity.
