Morphology
coordinated = coordinate (semi-transparent) = co + ordinate + ed
This is a regular participial adjective of coordinate, but the bodily-dexterity sense is a metaphorical extension of 'working well together,' so it is only partly predictable.
Etymology
The word coordinated comes from co- meaning 'together' and order meaning 'put in order'. So when someone is coordinated, their body parts work 'together in order', which lets them move smoothly.
