Which activity is NOT considered a locomotor skill?

Locomotor skills involve movements that allow individuals to move from one place to another and typically include actions such as walking, running, jumping, skipping, and galloping. These skills require a change of location or position in space.

Balancing does not fit this definition, as it primarily involves maintaining a stable position in one location without necessarily moving from it. While balancing can be integral to many physical activities, it does not involve the aspect of locomotion—the act of moving through space. The activities of galloping, walking, and jumping all involve movement patterns that propel the body forward or upward, categorizing them clearly as locomotor skills.
