Abstract
This article presents a less prescriptive approach to the teaching. Our didactic proposal is divided into 3 complementary and progressive stages. The first one encourages the child to explore the learning environment and to discover their motor capabilities; the second is an intermediate phase with greater practice variety in which the child experiences different ways of acting and hitting; the last one aims for each child to discover their own preferred movements and strokes in a natural way.
