La configurazione della società moderna rende sempre più attuali i problemi connessi alla pratica di un regolare esercizio fisico. Parallelamente si pone la questione dell’insegnamento delle moderne forme di movimento che catalizzano l’attenzione e l’interesse di milioni di persone in Italia e in tutto il mondo, che si rivolgono alle strutture pubbliche e private che offrono servizi per l’attività motoria, da quelle più tradizionali a quelle più moderne. Luoghi dove non si fa più opera di promozione e animazione motoria o sportiva, ma vera e propria opera di formazione ed educazione. Luoghi che coinvolgono i bambini, gli adulti in varie fasce di età, gli anziani e, da ormai diversi anni, persone con patologie croniche stabilizzate che con l’esercizio fisico e una blanda attività sportiva riescono a mantenere e migliorare il proprio stato di salute. Gli istruttori e i personal trainer, le principali figure professionali presenti in questi contesti, rappresentano il punto di contatto tra gli ambienti dove tali attività sono proposte e le persone che le praticano. Dato l’aspetto preventivo dell’esercizio fisico, la stretta connessione con lo stato di salute, l’aumento dei praticanti in età adulta e anziana con patologie cronicizzate e delle innumerevoli prospettive professionali, diventa sempre più importante coniugare le conoscenze accademiche delle scienze motorie e sportive con le competenze necessarie per chi, in tali ambienti, ha poi la responsabilità di educare al corretto movimento e, di fatto, d’insegnare come farlo. Il tirocinio curricolare universitario rappresenta la fase di passaggio tra la formazione e l’attività lavorativa. Vengono presentati i dati degli stage curricolari attivati dagli studenti del corso di laurea L-22 all’Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore di Milano

Abstract

The shape of modern society makes the problems associated with regular exercise increasingly topical. At the same time, there is the question of teaching modern forms of movement that attract the attention and interest of millions of people in Italy and throughout the world, who turn to public and private facilities offering services for motor activity, from the most traditional to the most modern. These are places where the work is no longer one of motor or sports activities promotion, but one of training and education. Places that involve children, adults in various age groups, the elderly and, for several years now, people with stabilised chronic diseases who manage to maintain and improve their state of health through physical exercise and gentle sporting activity. The main professional figures present in these contexts, as instructors and personal trainers, represent the point of contact between the environments where these activities are offered and the people who practice them. Given the preventive aspect of physical exercise, the close connection with health status, the increase in the number of adult and elderly practitioners with chronic illnesses, and the countless professional prospects, it is becoming increasingly important to combine the academic knowledge of exercise and sports sciences with the skills needed by those who, in these environments, are then responsible for educating on proper movement and, indeed, teaching how to do it. The curricular university internship is the transition phase between education and employment. This essay presents data on curricular internships undertaken by students on the L-22 degree course at the Università Cattolica del Sacro Cuore in Milan.
