Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Introductory Course of Modern Gymnastic Exercises IN a work like the present, which professes to be exclusively practical, any lengthened inquiry into the scientific principles of Gymnastics would be out of place.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Pioneers of Modern Physical Training Denmark was the first European state to introduce physi cal training into its schools as an essential part of the course and to prepare teachers of that subject by offering sys tematic instruction in theory and method of gymnastics. The leader in this movement, and its director for forty years, was franz nachtegall (177 7 - 1847 whose whole life was passed in Copenhagen. As a student in the uni versity there he had applied himself to fencing and vaulting, and after his father's death undertook to support himself by giving instruction in gymnastics, at first in a private school. In 1799 he organized a gymnastic club composed of stu dents and young merchants, and on November 5 of the same year opened a. Private gymnasium, the first institution in modern times devoted exclusively to physical training. The venture was successful from the start. When five years later the government established a Military Institute for training non-commissioned officers to teach gymnastics in the army, its management was entrusted to Nachtegall, who received the title Professor of Gymnastics. The King also started, in 1808, a Civil Gymnastic Institute, in order to pre pare teachers for the elementary schools. A law passed in 1814 decreed that every school in Denmark Should provide grounds and apparatus for gymnastics, and that wherever the teachers were able to direct it the children should be given an hour of exercise each day, in addition to the regu lar schedule. Nachtegall was appointed Director of Gym nasties in 1821, his duties extending to the schools of the army and navy as well as to civil institutions. He pub lished, In 1828, a Manual of Gymnastics for Elementary Schools, the first book of its kind, and three years later' a Manual of Gymnastics for Use in Secondary Schools. Both were afterwards translated into German. Nachtegall resigned his position as Director of Gymnastics in 1842. Consult the American Physical Education Review for June, 1904 (vol. IX., pp. 97-99 and 107. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Manual of the Gymnastic Exercises: As Practised by the Junior Class in Amherst College, Amherst, Mass The need of a manual like the present is seen in the fact that three editions of a similar work have been issued at Amherst during the past few years. The recent advances made in this department, and the increased facilities of our new Pratt Gymnasium, now ready for occupancy, seem to demand a new manual, and one which shall more fully meet the practical wants of teachers and educational institutions everywhere. The object of this manual is to furnish a series of exercises, by the use of which a teacher can directly instruct a class in light gymnastics; or an ingenious person may take the leading points in these exercises, and adapt them to peculiar wants and circumstances, thus giving a greater variety and pleasure of movement. There is also given a series of simple military movements that may be made by a class or company of from twenty to a hundred, - male or female, - either in a small out-of-doors area, or in an ordinary hall.

Download or read book School Gymnastics with Light Apparatus Vol 1 written by Jessie Hubbell Bancroft and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-26 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from School Gymnastics With Light Apparatus, Vol. 1: First, Second, Third, and Fourth Years The course Of lessons herewith presented for public school use is in two divisions - free hand and light apparatus oxer cise respectively. Each of these divisions is a complete course in itself, covering eight grades of work from the lowest primary to the highest grammar. The free hand work can be used in the regular classroom, though a special room is obviously desirable. The apparatus work necessitates free floor space. Each grade of work is arranged in eighteen lessons, extend ing over half of the school year. This does not cover the entire term of most school sessions, asit is considered best to use review work during times of examination and promotion, rather than to tax pupils with new exercises at such times. While each course is complete in itself, the two kinds of work are designed to be interchanged - half of the school year to be devoted to free hand exercise and the succeeding half to the apparatus. In grading the exercises each free hand series is used as the foundation for the movements of the apparatus work for the same year, which in turn, in the greater variety and freedom of its exercises, forms an advance upon the last series of free work.

Download or read book Power and Health Through Progressive Exercise Classic Reprint written by George Elliot Flint and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2018-01-18 with total page 282 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Power and Health Through Progressive Exercise It must not be thought, however, that this book deals wholly with heavy gymnastics, weight-lifting, and feats of strength. Many light exercises are given as being valuable to promote elasticity and suppleness; and, in addi tion to these, - as an apprenticeship of mode rate exercises is absolutely necessary in order that one may become capable of the simplest exhibition of force, - many intermediate exer cises are carefully described, and their effects discussed. The effects of common indoor and outdoor athletic sports and exercises are gone into. All which, it is hoped, will make this volume a complete manual of physical culture, suitable alike for those boys and girls, men and women, who may wish, without the aid of a teacher, to make the best of their bodies.
