SPORT – A lifetime activity
When we were small children, we begin to discover our body, to move around, walking from our mother’s arms to our father’s, we start to play and enjoy movement.
Moving is like testing ourselves. Based on this concept, sport is an instrument for self-knowledge and, consequently, it contributes to human development. Therefore, it becomes a true lifetime activity.
TENNIS – “An ongoing on Chess game”
Throughout history, the art of movement and sport has been translated into various activities, which can bring lots of pleasure and a quick development of perceptions.
When playing tennis, the body’s development is directly connected to the development of the mind. It is all about knowing the limits of your body and mind, having simultaneous control, and keeping track of the other aspects inherent to the game, as well. Tennis is an “ongoing chess game”.
