Israel Villarrasa Sapiña

Israel Villarrasa Sapiña is an Assistant Professor at the Universitat de València, affiliated with the Faculty of Physical Education and Sport Sciences and the Department of Physical and Sport Sciences. He is actively involved in research through two groups: HuMAG (Human Movement Analysis Group) and AFIPS (Physical Activity and Health Promotion Group). His work focuses on the intersection of physical activity, motor development, and health in pediatric populations.

His primary research interests include physical education, sports science, motor control, postural stability, childhood obesity, gait analysis, human movement, physical activity, and health promotion. These areas are deeply connected to his doctoral work and ongoing research collaborations.

The trends in his potential research output—though no specific articles are listed—likely center on biomechanics, pediatric motor development, and public health implications of physical inactivity. His work bridges clinical movement analysis with community-based health promotion strategies.
