Kinesthetic





  • This potential is related to movements and activities.

  • In this category, people are generally adept at physical activities such as sports or dance and often prefer activities that utilise movements.

  • They may enjoy acting or performing, and in general, they are good at building and making things.

  • They often learn best by physically doing something rather than reading or hearing about it.

  • Those with strong bodily-kinesthetic potential possess high muscle memory, i.e., they remember things through their body rather than through their words (verbal memory) or images (visual memory).

  • It requires skills and dexterity for fine motor movements such as those required for dancing, athletics, surgery, craft-making.
