kinesthetic
Proprioception ( PROH-pree-o-SEP-shən), also referred to as kinaesthesia (or kinesthesia), is the sense of self-movement, force, and body position. It is sometimes described as the "sixth sense".Proprioception is mediated by proprioceptors, mechanosensory neurons located within muscles, tendons, and joints. Most animals possess multiple subtypes of proprioceptors, which detect distinct kinematic parameters, such as joint position, movement, and load. Although all mobile animals possess proprioceptors, the structure of the sensory organs can vary across species. Proprioceptive signals are transmitted to the central nervous system, where they are integrated with information from other sensory systems, such as the visual system and the vestibular system, to create an overall representation of body position, movement, and acceleration. In many animals, sensory feedback from proprioceptors is essential for stabilizing body posture and coordinating body movement.

kinesthetic
Kinesthetic refers to the perception and awareness of physical body movements, balance, and position, often associated with coordination and motor skills. It involves the sensation of muscles, tendons, and joints while moving or being in a particular position. Kinesthetic learning is a learning style that involves hands-on, tactile activities and participation, where individuals learn best through doing, experimenting, and active engagement.
