This document introduces motor control and classification of motor skills. It discusses that there are three main types of motor skills: locomotor skills which propel movement from one place to another, non-locomotor skills which involve movement around the body's axis without locomotion, and manipulative skills which require handling an object with control. Human motor skills exhibit flexibility, uniqueness, consistency, and modifiability.

3. Characteristics of Human
Nature
 Flexibility
 Uniqueness
 Consistency
 Modifiability

4. Flexibility
 the ability to recruit different
muscles and joints to achieve
the same action
Uniqueness
 a movement are ever performed
in exactly same way.

5. Consistency
 temporal and spatial characteristics of
a movement remain relatively stables
from one performance to the next.
Modifiability
 the ability to alter a movement
pattern even as it is being
executed.

CONTROL?

9. Tree main types of motor skills
*Locomotor skills
*Non-locomotor skills
*Manipulative skills

10. Locomotor skill
- is a physical action that propels
an individual from one place to
another.

12. Non-locomotor skills
- are the body's movement that
does not involve movement from
one place to another. It involves
movements around the axis of the
body.

14. Manipulate skill
-that require an ability to handle
an object or piece of equipment
with control. They include skills
such as kicking, striking, dribbling
or catching a ball. Can also be
referred to as 'object control
skills'.
