Interesting. How about something like soccer?

  I’ve been “fit” at various times in my life by various definitions - ie a decent runner, weightlifter, etc. But I’ve never been “coordinated” enough to be even average at any sport. Luckily in High School and college, I could choose swimming and weightlifting as my Physical Ed requirements, Even being a fitness instructor didn’t take dynamic coordination since I was in charge of the class, do moves I was completely comfortable with and rehearsed extensively. I was never a good student in a highly choreographed fitness class. I picked up moves here and there from other instructors and made them my own.

    Interesting. I’m very similar myself. As far as I know I don’t have cerebral palsy or any other neurological condition, but I did grow up in a very “intellectually focused” family where any seemingly “out of control” activity was frowned upon. Have a feeling my brain just allocated a very large chunk of cognitive capacity to intellectual endeavors, and not enough to motor skills / coordination. At least not enough to be good at something like soccer.
