Locomotor skills as a sub-area of motor skills (mobility, movement behavior) describes the type of movement :

• Fort movements , ie movement locomotion (consciously and / or controlled) of the body , such as climbing , running , walking and jumping . Contrast: statomotor activity .
• Movements and (involuntary) reflexes of the body or of parts of the body , for example within organs (here e.g. the spontaneous expulsion of inhaled foreign bodies from the lungs ).
• Urge to move .
• Experiencing space (through the movements performed).

The branch of science that deals with motor skills is called motology .

A sub-area of ​​locomotor skills is proxemics (distance control).

In contrast to Lokomotorik are sensorimotor (z. B. Access ) and Statomotorik (holding and supporting reflexes).
