Neuromotricity and body schema. Bases for the use of body percussion in the sciences of physical educa-tion and sport

Abstract

The aim of this article is to propose a theoretical and practical justification on the work for the internalization of the body schema in relation to neuromotricity. For this purpose, a bibliographical review is established on the perceptual-motor variables related to the elaboration of the body schema, such as attitude, postural control, spatial structuring, temporal structuring, balance and coordination with practical exercises of body percussion for its application in the physical education sciences. In this way, applying practical resources focused on the work of cognitive and executive functions, we offer an innovative psycho-pedagogical method in the field of human motor skills. Keywords: Body schema, neuromotricity, body percussion, BAPNE, physical education, executive functions
