ABOUT
MOVEQ INTELLIGENCE MODEL - MQIM
The MoveQ Intelligence Model (MQIM) highlights the complexity of movement and motor learning, emphasizing that they cannot be viewed in isolation from key bodily and environmental factors.
Building on Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, we recognize that individuals acquire knowledge in different ways. Inspired by his work and other scientific insights, we have identified five intelligence quotients that shape movement and learning. These are represented through three interrelated dimensions that interact with each other and their environment.
MQIM provides a deeper understanding of how intelligence influences movement, helping athletes and professionals optimize performance through a holistic approach.
Preface
Our passion for movement drives us, along with growing experiential and scientific knowledge from disciplines like sports science, biomechanics, psychology, and education. The following provides an overview of the MoveQ Intelligence Model (MQIM)—its foundation, development, and theoretical background.
About the Model
The MQIM highlights the complexity of movement and motor learning, emphasizing their deep connection to both bodily and environmental factors. Inspired by Howard Gardner’s theory of multiple intelligences, we recognize that knowledge is acquired in different ways. Based on this and other scientific insights, we have identified five intelligence quotients that influence movement:
1. Movement Quotient (MQ) – The core of our model, focusing on movement competence.
2. Intelligence Quotient (IQ) – Cognitive abilities and problem-solving.
3. Spiritual Quotient (SQ) – Personal purpose and intrinsic motivation.
4. Emotional Quotient (EQ) – Emotional regulation and resilience.
5. Physical Quotient (FQ) – The body’s physical capacity and biomechanics.
These interact within three interconnected dimensions:
• The Inner Ring – MQ at the center.
• The Middle Ring – The four additional intelligences influencing movement.
• The Outer Ring – Environmental factors like space, time, people, and movement tasks that shape learning and performance.
Our Approach
MoveQ applies this model through:
• 3D Functional Training – Developing movement skills across all planes to enhance performance and prevent injuries.
• Competence-Based Learning – A holistic approach that integrates intelligence, social interaction, and personal growth.
• Personal Leadership & Development – Inspired by Covey’s principles, emphasizing the connection between mind, body, and environment.
Our Commitment
We use the MQIM to continuously assess and refine our methods, ensuring quality and effectiveness in our training and education programs. This approach also aligns with our commitment to promoting a healthier, more sustainable environment—both for individuals and the world around us.
