Through the medium of gymnastics, students will be introduced to the six mechanically-related Movement Patterns from which most human movement evolves: The Body in Stillness (Statics), The Body in Explosive Movement (Spring or Take-off), The Body in Repetitive Movement (Locomotion), The Body in Absorbing Movement (Landing), The Body in Rotation and The Body in Swing. Students will be assessed on both theoretical and practical content.
