Animation is the art of recreating movement. It's impossible to make a perfect tutorial on animating movements, with animated movements. So instead, I shall skip the extra step, and provide you all with a large collection of video references of several movements commonly animated. Studying actual movement, especially in slow motion, is the best way to fully grasp the movement you are attempting to recreate. I hope you all find this useful and use some of these references to greatly improve your animations. This collection is constantly growing; I shall be adding more through out the week to expand the different movements. If you have any video links or you want me to find a single or collection of references then feel free to PM me.

Wow thanks a lot man. I've seen some videos before for references but this is quite the selection. Considering this community and pivot in general I suggest some more fighting and miscellaneous, although you already know that.
This is a big helping hand for everyone (thumbsup)

I already had the dive roll on the list, and I wanted to avoid using the larger man because the "athletic man" is more relatable to a stick figure's shape. I added the punch. That slow motion shot was excellent. It should really help studying recoil. Thanks!
