Sport & Guidance: Pedagogical developments

Abstract

Combining guidance & sport, from an educational point of view, requires to focus on individual with his life-span and his constant tension to determine himself in forms conform to feel good with himself in social contexts. The education put in the middle the body; during our existence we mature and change a way of thinking and feeling with our body and a way to act it out into the world. Living, we experience ourselves and our bodies and this translate into a bodily experience which is the basis of corporeality. If guidance is due mainly to internal factors such as cognitive and emotional abilities of tuning thinking, feeling and acting, reflecting on ourself and on their own  desires, looking ourself into perspective, this is a path that can and should be accompanied by educational agencies. Choose a sport means wanting to continue, giving a special type of turning, a body awareness that has already started and educationally supported. From this point of view, guidance related with sport could investigate some specific themes like the need to support movement educationally, to guide sport choices intended like a moment of self-experimentation, finally, support educational agencies might offer to support difficult life-spans since marked with dual-career, such as sport with school and University.
