Abstract

This paper is focused on creating a sense of awareness concerning sensitivity to race/ethnic backgrounds of participants as instructors deliver online online synchronous sessions in physical activity/fitness sessions. The study is grounded on a sport sociology perspective with a dynamical systems theoretical framework in order to explain the sensitivity and awareness needed by instructors to facilitate inclusive instruction to all participants. The aspect of sensitivity and awareness to race/ethnic background can be transferred into an in-person setting in post pandemic times within community centers, and in/outdoor physical activity/fitness settings.
