The video tutorial explains three types of shape movements: slide, flip, and turn. A slide involves moving a shape in one direction from one place to another. A flip is when a shape is turned over to face the opposite direction. A turn involves rotating a shape around a point, similar to how clock hands move. The tutorial provides examples and directions for each type of movement, helping viewers understand how shapes can be manipulated in space.
