Part I of the text, chapters 1 through 3, presents the theoretical background for educational gymnastics: a comparison of educational and traditional gymnastics, a review of balance as the foundation for all movement, and a child-centered approach to curriculum and teaching. Part II of the text presents the learning experiences for children to develop a functional understanding of the components of educational gymnastics. Chapter 4 establishes Laban's movement analysis framework as the basis of all movement learning and expands, with direct application to gymnastics, the components of the movement analysis framework introduced in chapter 1. Chapter 5 focuses on the foundational skills of balance. Chapter 6 progresses with more challenging balance experiences combined with weight transfer between balances, weight transfers using in-flight actions, and ends with educational gymnastics individual and partner sequences. Chapter 7 includes learning experiences on educational gymnastics equipment. Finally, chapter 8 in part III considers teaching and learning goals and addresses standards and assessment for educational gymnastics"--
