There are four general categories of movements:
1. Gliding movements
2. Angular movements (flexion and extension, abduction and adduction, and circumduction)
3. Rotational movements (medial / internal rotation and lateral / external rotation)
4. Special movements (such as plantarflexion, dorsiflexion, retrusion, protrusion, protraction, retraction, excursion, elevation, depression, inversion, eversion, supination, and pronation).

These anatomical terms of motion may seem complex, but they are easy to understand once you practice and use a few simple mnemonics. These movements often occur within the major body planes.

A joint is a place where two or more bones meet, also called an articulation
These joints allow us the free movement to perform skills and techniques
during physical activity. Synovial joints are classified into 6 (six) different categories on the basis of the shape and structure of the joint.

It’s made of:
Cartilage: Covers the bone, absorbs shocks, reduces bone friction
Joint capsule: Keeps the joint’s bones together
Synovial Fluid: Found in the joint’s cavity and lubricates the joint
Synovial membrane Produces synovial fluid
Along with these, the synovial joint is typically surrounded by tissue that holds up the joint and helps promote movement.
