Durden-Myers, Elizabeth J.; Meloche, E. S.; Dhillon, Karamjeet K.
Journal of Physical Education, Recreation & Dance, v91 n3 p8-16 2020
This article discusses the embodied nature of physical literacy with specific attention given to the interconnectedness of embodiment, lived experience, and meaning (assemblage).
