A Coeducação também dança: reflexões para a Educação física escolar

Abstract

This research seeks to analyze the possibilities of working the dance/education from coeducational principles, seeing dance as content of School Physical Education classes, form of expression, art, science, psychomotricity and body culture. Through a bibliographical research we were able to unveil the details of the coeducation theory studied by Daniela Auad (2003, 2003b, 2004b, 2005, 2006, 2010, 2015, 2016) and the methodology of dance education, developed by several authors such as Laban (1978, 1990), Marques (1999, 2010, 2011) and Nanni (1998, 2002), finding approximations and distances that showed possibilities of union. Finally, we report the experience of extension projects based at the Federal Rural University of Pernambuco, during 2015 and 2016, where dance and gender relations worked in a single propositional rhythm, that of dance/coeducation.
