Research Abstract	Although a lot of studies on motor skill learning support systems have been conducted since many years ago, there are few studies on comparison between left and right motions or on its applications. The final goal of this study is to support motion learning of non-dominant side of learner's body by mimicking his/her motion of reversed dominant side as a model. The target learner is a learner whose motion of dominant side keeps a level to be set as a model for learning. Before realizing the final goal, we analyzed the learner's difference between left side and right side, considering learner's playing history of sports. Based on the results, we plan to select the target motion, and develop learning support system.
