Don't you have a dictionary?
Depends on if you are asking from a sociological, musical, scientific/physiological, religious, artistic or medical perspective. Even then the answers could go on forever. There are such things as bowel movements, political movements, ideological movements, movements in musical composition, meaning-laden movements in body language. Then you also have kinesthetics and kinesiology , ad infinitum.

Movement is the result of action... and only if the action is initiated by oneself can the meaning be discovered.
