A study conducted by researchers from the World Health Organization (WHO) and published in the journal The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health, indicates that most children and adolescents (80%) do not get enough physical activity to be within healthy standards. This is not only a problem for future health, but also a tacit invitation to all professionals in sports pedagogy to contribute to change this picture. By updating your competencies with this Professional Master's Degree, you will be able to move towards this objective by studying aspects such as: the theory and individual and collective practice of motor and pre-sports games in early childhood education; and artistic-expressive physical activities such as dance, rhythm and corporal expression. These and other thematic axes will be detailed in our self-regulated classes with cutting-edge digital technology that guarantees cognitive immersion and curricular effectiveness.
