Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
UNIT 1 - RHYTHM
INTRODUCTION
This unit is intended to educate students about the value of rhythmic activities,
their role in developing nationalism, and the importance of preserving our cultural
heritage. It will enable students to develop their self-expression through dance
interpretation, movement creation, and performance. Combinations of physical
movements and sounds, beats, or music are referred to as rhythmic activities.
Rhythmic activities rely on a direct or indirect rhythm for self-expression, exercise,
physical ability demonstration, socialization, and cultural expression.

Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
The elements of movement and space and their qualities, along with the
elements of rhythm (covered in the first module), are regarded as crucial for
competency and efficiency in body movements. These make it easier to improvise
movements and comprehend creative works; leading to the learning of dances.
The direction, level, range, and pattern of the floor are all spatial features that
affect movements.
Movements:
Walk in place, forward and backward
Run forward. Jump backward.
2. Level is a term that refers to movement across space at a high, low, or medium
level.
Movements:
Walk on tiptoe, with knees half-bent, with knees fully bent.
Run with a more significant elevation from the floor.
3. Range is a term that refers to the area covered by the body as it moves. It can
be minor, as when moving within one's place, or major, as when moving away
from one's place.
Movements:
Walk with steps shorter or longer than natural.
Run with steps shorter or longer than natural.
4. Floor pattern refers to the path or design on the floor that is made while moving
in space is what is termed a floor pattern. It may take the form of a circle, square,
straight line, or gazing.
14
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
Movements:
To the original place, take four walking steps, each forward; sideward
R; backward; sideward L.
Move forward in a circle clockwise with R arm raised at the side and L
hand on the waist in 8 counts; turnabout and move counterclockwise
in a circle with reverse arm/hand position in 8 counts.
Every movement occurs in space. Personal space and general space are the two
types of space occupation.
MOVEMENT QUALITIES
1. TIME QUALITIES are applied as both musical and dance elements (beat, tempo,
speed, rhythm, sudden, slow, sustained)
• Movement which is fast
Examples: running vehicle
galloping horse
15
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
Examples: fairies
birds and butterflies
• Strong heavy movement
Examples: elephant
Bulldozer
3. SPACE QUALITIES refer to the space through which the dancer’s body moves
(general or personal space, level, size, direction, pathway, focus).
• Movement up and down
Examples: bouncing ball
yo-yo
• Movement across, back and forth, or around
Examples: rowing boat
a merry-go-round
• Movement which is low
Examples: ants
turles
• Movement which is high
Examples: kites, clouds
16
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities

INTRODUCTION
This unit is designed to reacquaint students with various movements that can
be of used as a springboard for creative dance making: improvisation and
choreography. The avenues for creative exploration within the processes of
performing, creating, responding to, and connecting dance learning to other
disciplines and life skills will be suggested in this chapter.
Course Learning Outcome:
Analyze the classifications according to their elements and qualities to work and
practice of movement skills and appropriate steps.
Create and apply movements through dance and appropriate music.

Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
The ability to "feel" or sense whatever one's muscles are while performing physical
tasks is required for the most intentional movement. In our daily lives, we frequently
make use of our motor skills. It lets us move and do different things ̶ from lifting heavy
stuff to typing on a keyboard.
The acquisition of motor skills and control begins shortly after birth and
continues throughout an individual's life. Students who have reasonable motor
control can also look around their surroundings, which helps them in several other
ways.
This lesson will focus on fundamental motor skills, which encompass a variety
of natural movements and movement experiences. This will help learners develop a
more comprehensive grasp of fundamental motor skills.
I. Natural Movements
1. Locomotor Movement
It is the movement that travels the body through space. These are the natural
movements that bring the body from one place to another.
20
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
Examples:
2. Run – Fast walk or an increased speed in walking by lifting the foot off the
floor or ground.
3. Hop – A spring from one or two feet landing on one foot. Put the weight of
the body on one foot, spring, and land on the same foot.
4. Jump – A spring from both feet landing on both feet. The action can be
done vertically or horizontally.
21
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
A. Walk Variations:
1. Changes in direction:
- In place forward; backward; sideward
- Turning around
- Sideward crossing feet in front or back
- Change facing forward to the background, sideward, and turning around
while continuing in the same direction.
2. Changes in level:
- On tiptoe
- With knees half bent
- With knees fully bent
3. Changes in tempo:
- Steps faster than natural
- Steps slower than natural
22
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
B. Jump Variations
1. Changes on direction:
- Forward; backward; sideward;
- Turning around
- With half and full turns while in air
2. Changes in level:
- Knees fully bent
- Knees half-bent
3. Changes in tempo:
- Jumping close to the floor for fast timing
- Jumping high into the air for slowing timing

Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
LET’S DISCUSS!
The elements of dance focus on several different concepts and how we can
manipulate these concepts to move in particular ways. These foundational concepts
and vocabulary help students develop movement skills and understand dance as an
artistic practice. While different dance styles call for specialized skills and stylization
choices, the underlying elements of dance are visible in all dance experiences.
Remember the acronym BASTE (body, action, space, time, energy).
1. Body
The body is the instrument of dance. Just as a painter paint with a
brush. In dance, it is through the body that movement appears.
You can use the whole body, body parts, body zones (front, back,
left side, right side, top half, etc.) and body bases (what supports
the body ex: feet, hands, head)
Dance movements are initiated or originated by the body.
2. Action
Action is any human movement included in the act of dancing.
Actions can include dance steps, facial movements, lifts, carries
and catches, and even everyday movements such as walking.
Actions can travel (locomotor) or move on the spot (non-locomotor).
3. Space
Space is where the body moves, it is the area occupied by the
dancer’s body. It includes directions, size, pathways, levels and
shapes
4. Time
Time is the relationship of one movement or part of a movement to
another.
How fast or slow (tempo) a dance movement is
How even or uneven (beat) a dance movement is
How long or short (duration) a dance movement is
5. Energy
Energy is the degree of muscular tension and use of energy while
moving.
It refers to the force of action.
34
Physical Education 121 Rhythmic Activities
How?
Dynamics: how a movement is done: how the body moves
Flow: continuity of movement (bound/ free
flowing/balance/neutral)
Weight: strength or lightness of movement (heavy/light)
