What is Kinesiology?

Kinesiology is the science of human movement. It focuses on how the body functions and moves. A kinesiological approach applies the latest evidenced based medicine principles to preserve and enhance human movement in all settings and populations.

As the representative and certifying body for kinesiologists in the province of Ontario we carry out the mandate of the membership. Learn more about our mission, philosophy and scope, so you can come to better understand Kinesiology and the Ontario Kinesiology Association.

The Ontario Kinesiology Association is the professional association which provides certification for kinesiologists, helps uphold professional standards in the field, offers continuing education, and promotes public awareness of the science of kinesiology.
