MayTag Performa Washing Machine

I have just noticed something when doing a load of laundry. The washing machine tub (itself) is not moving at all. The agitator is working, but I remember seeing the tub also move / rotate, or am I imagining this?

If not, and the tub should also move while the machine is running the wash cycle, what could be some of the reasons that has caused the problem? is the tub geared via a transmission, or what?

I am not certain, but I think that the gentle/normal speed selection is also not working.

Any suggestions on troubleshooting this problem will be appreciated. This machine is not old; purchased around September Labor Day of year

Thanks.
