Dear Reader,

You may not realize it, or acknowledge it in any way, but you're doing it right now. Your eyes are going from right to left as you read these words. Time is passing, the clock is ticking and somewhere in the world, someone is fighting for social justice and maybe even for his or her right to party.

Movement.

It's not just a physical action. Of course, movement is incorporated into our workouts and daily routines. We move from one place to another. We move up in the professional world. And we even move our hips when Shakira tells us they don't lie.

But, movement is more than that, encompassing many aspects of our lives. This issue of Klipsun takes a look at the various types of movement. You will see how movement can be a daily habit, or a life-altering circumstance. From something as simple as fidgeting to something as serious as migration after a natural disaster, each story examines movement in a different light.

In Handi-capable, the Seattle Slam quadriplegic rugby team found new ways of moving, and in Skim Success, Western students turned their love of skimboarding into an international business. Happy reading!
