The purpose of this paper is to describe a posture and motion for the elderly with disabilities from the viewpoint of ecological concept based on affordance theory by James J. Gibson. As their action is limited by disabilities, they can't perceive enough information which exists in environment. Therefore, they must accomplish through the thinking based on insufficient and wrong information. As a result, their posture and motion can't adapt to surrounding situation, it makes them to feel anxious and fearful. Further more, emotion such leads to limit spontaneous motion with searching. We should be related with the elderly with disabilities to woik on environment spontaneously for perceiving the relation between themselves and environment. We think that it is important for them to acquire flexible motion corresponding to environmental change.
