Journal of Movement Arts Literacy

The Journal of Movement Arts Literacy informs the international movement arts literacy communities of the latest inquiry in pedagogy, theory, application, practice, and research of human movement having literacy as a tool to investigate, analyze, or frame understanding. This forum encourages practitioners, theorists, and researchers to test hypothetical and theoretical premises and share their ideas and discoveries for the benefit of the movement literacy community. The outcome goal of the Journal of Movement Arts Literacy is to provide a venue of critical reflection for communities of practice toward further understanding and development of theory and praxis.

For purposes of this journal, the term movement literacy has a broad multi-dimensional meaning that supports the exchange of text/symbolic–based information about movement. As much as embodied knowing differs from other ways of knowing, movement literacy is not just about re-presenting movement in text/symbolic–based forms, but it involves the art and science of knowing, making meaning, understanding, and communicating about human movement. Movement literacy involves the embodied experience and a set of cognitive skills of reading (i.e. interpreting, reflecting on, interrogating, theorizing, investigating, exploring, probing, and questioning) and writing (i.e. acting on and dialogically transforming) the world of movement arts and the applied practices and situated applications of active, broad-based processes of creating and interpreting in order to communicate qualitative and quantitative analysis of human movement arts.
