Move Smart

We exist to improve the movement skills of young people

Fundamental Movement Skills (FMS) are movements that involve different body parts and include skills such as running, catching, throwing, striking and balancing.

In a school context, developing Movement Skills is the foundation of PE & school sport. This helps support young people in their development as competent, confident and healthy movers.
