Class Didactics of Fight Sports

The Didactics of Combat Sports can be considered a Curricular Unit (CU) that aggregates combat sports and martial arts content, making it a fundamental unit of the Master's in Physical Education Teaching. In this CU, students are expected to acquire essential skills in the didactic process of teaching combat sports through the application of strategies adapted to each student's developmental stage. In Combat Sports, students are faced with displacements, unbalancing, falls, and actions involving Pulling vs. Pushing, Grabbing and Takedowns, and Pinning, which do not occur in most team and individual sports. This motor pattern, or these motor actions, is also fundamental to the youth's holistic development, which is specific to Combat Sports. Therefore, the mastery of combat sports content, along with the processes of teaching, observation, and assessment-consolidated through teaching practice-will be absolutely decisive for the success of this CU.
