Abstract
Many physical education teacher education (PETE) programs include content courses designed to develop their students' knowledge and skills in various physical activities. One such course that PETE students are often required to take is educational gymnastics. Educational gymnastics is an important content area with many benefits, and it is unique from other content areas because of the indirect teaching style used. It also happens to be a content area in which many PETE students lack confidence. This may be due to factors such as a lack of a personal background in gymnastics, lack of understanding of educational gymnastics as a content area, or lack of training in teaching developmentally appropriate gymnastics. The purpose of this article is to discuss how instruction in an educational gymnastics course designed for PETE students can improve their comfort levels for both teaching and performing educational gymnastics.
