Autism is a disorder that affects language development, communication fluency, expression through emotions, and the quality of body movement in young children. Using body expression in Physical Education classes offered a series of resources to develop nonverbal communication and group relationships. The result presented was aimed at socializing actions of a body expression program as an alternative for psychomotor development in seven- and nine-years old students with autism spectrum disorder, from the Inter-American Bilingual Educational Unit in the city of Cuenca, Ecuador. The research responded to a mixed approach and scientific methods such as observation, survey, interview, and document analysis were used for its intervention, which facilitated the acquisition of information about the participation and inclusive attention of their psychomotor development in Physical Education classes, where it was revealed that body expression can be an effective form of intervention to promote a more complete and balanced development.

Palabras clave : autism; physical education; body expression; educational inclusion.
