摘要：Learning disabilities can originate from a variety of causes, but especially in the early years of elementary school the main obstacles to learning refer to psychomotor disorders. The present work addresses the main psychomotor disorders based on bibliographic research. Initially it presents what is psychomotricity, its object of study and its purposes. Therefore, each of the seven psychomotor aspects is defined: tonicity, balance, laterality, body schema, spatiotemporal structuring, global praxias and fine praxias and, finally, we discuss the main motor disorders: psychomotor instability, weakness psychomotor, psychomotor inhibition, cross laterality and malpractice. It was found that Psychomotricity has a lot to contribute in this regard, especially when the learning problem comes from some failure in motor development, because it works with aspects that go beyond the treatment of motor problems, but seeks a functionality for the body. For this, psychomotricity aims not only the movement, but the total functioning of the individual, working with the affective and cognitive areas.
