Abstract	The purpose of this article is to persuade teachers of English at all levels to allow for more student movement, even if just a little. Kevin McCaughey calls this approach to a dynamic classroom space a Movable Class. The first part of this article looks at how lack of movement, especially prolonged sitting, has serious health consequences. The second part examines how teachers can break through that sitting cycle by bringing movement to traditional sedentary tasks. The final part shows how to train students for safe and effective movement. (ERIC).
