Physical Education

YES Physical Education (P.E.) is an indoor/outdoor program designed to help people achieve a better balance between the mind and the body. Our curriculum is divided into indoor and outdoor programs. 

 

Indoor P.E. focuses on mat exercises, applying the body's natural load of its own weight. This promotes the development of muscular strength, flexibility, and bones.

 

Each child is interested in different movements. After stretching and basic exercises, the instructor does not set the tasks for the children. The students choose the movements they are interested in and challenge themselves. There is no standard of “can-do” or “can't-do,” and we respect their willingness to try.

 

Having the desire to try new moves and the natural habit of changing yourself will help in achieving your goals, creating a path to grow. Keeping our body growing strong and healthy can enrich our lives, and we can share and help each other with the experiences we gain.

 

In outdoor P.E., children exercise barefoot, putting the soles of their feet firmly on the ground, and feeling the texture of the soil and grass. The children learn basic movements such as running and jumping, as well as dynamic body movements such as balancing on unstable surfaces.

 

At YES, we do not divide our P.E. classes by age or grade, but by having children of various sizes, strength and personalities exercise together. The upperclassmen help the underclassmen, and the underclassmen in turn, watch the behaviour of the upperclassmen to gain experience in how to avoid danger outdoors.

 

Since our school does not have a playing field, we use nearby public parks and facilities.
