An implicit approach to motor learning suggests that relatively complex movement skills may be better acquired\r\nin environments that constrain errors during the initial stages of practice. This current concept paper proposes that\r\nreducing the number of errors committed during motor learning leads to stable performance when attention\r\ndemands are increased by concurrent cognitive tasks. While it appears that this approach to practice may be\r\nbeneficial for motor learning, further studies are needed to both confirm this advantage and better understand the\r\nunderlying mechanisms. An approach involving error minimization during early learning may have important\r\napplications in paediatric rehabilitation.
