Kinesthetic awareness, or the awareness of one’s body movement, occurs in the autonomous stage of learning. After the group masters a specific movement pattern, the BEST way to promote kinesthetic awareness in participants would be to:
  1. Leave the front of the room and walk around to observe the participants as they perform the movement with the other side of the body
  2. Ask one of the participants to lead the class using his or her new knowledge
  3. Repeat the demonstration process
  4. Cover the mirrors to decrease visual feedback
Explanation
Answer: A - A temporary absence from the front of a class will give the Group Fitness Instructor (GFI) the opportunity to provide feedback to participants as they attempt to perform the new movement pattern that they had just mastered on the previous side. If class members are able to reproduce the movement patterns without the instructor providing a visual model, the participants are undergoing motor learning.
