body studies

Body studies is an interdisciplinary field that explores the physical aspects of the human body, including its biology, movement, and cultural significance. It examines how bodies function biologically, how they are shaped by physical practices like dance or sports, and how societies view and represent the body through art, media, and social norms. This field bridges sciences and humanities to understand the body's role in identity, health, and cultural expression. It helps us appreciate the body not just as a biological entity but also as a social and cultural symbol.
