This document discusses two forms of movement: locomotor and non-locomotor movements. Locomotor movements involve moving the body from one place to another and includes walking, running, hopping, skipping, jumping, leaping, sliding, and galloping. Non-locomotor or axial movements are done in place and involve bending, stretching, lifting, twisting, rotating, swinging, and swaying different parts of the body.

TWO FORMS OF MOVEMENT By: Jenil U. Moises
LOCOMOTOR MOVEMENTS • This are done by moving the body from one place to another. 1. WALKING is shifting one’s weight from one foot to the other.
2. RUNNING is moving with longer strides and in faster speed than walking
3. HOPPING is springing on one foot and landing on the same foot.
4. SKIPPING is done with a step and a hop using the same foot.
5. JUMPING is springing on one foot or both feet and landing on both feet. (on landing always bend knees slightly.)
6. LEAPING is springing on one foot and landing on the other foot (wide stride).
7. SLIDING is done by gliding on the floor, sideward or forward using the right and left foot alternately.
8. GALLOPING is stepping on one foot and cutting the other, either sideward or forward.
Non-Locomotors Skills • or AXIAL MOVEMENT are done in place. 1. BENDING OR FLEXING is moving the muscles around a joint where two body parts meet.
2. STRETCHING OR EXTENDING is done by straightening or extending any part of the body from the joints.
3. LIFTING OR RAISING is elevating a part of the body, usually for the arms and legs.
4. TWISTING is moving a part of the body around a long axis, usually for the head and body.
5. ROTATING OR ENCIRCLING is done by moving a part of the body around axis.
6. SWINGING is a pendular movement below an axis.
7. SWAYING is a pendular movement above an axis.
