Effort is a movement concept category that includes which elements?

• A. Space
• B. Relationship
• C. Effort
• D. Body

Answer: (C)

Effort is about how a movement is performed—the quality or “feel” of the action. Within this category, there are four elements that describe that quality: Weight (light vs. strong), Time (sudden vs. sustained), Space (direct vs. indirect), and Flow (free vs. bound). These elements combine to create different effort actions, like a quick, light, direct, free movement versus a slow, heavy, indirect, bound one. The other options represent different movement concept categories (where you move, how you relate to others, or what body part you use), not the elements that define Effort.
