Orientador: Marcilio de Souza Vieira. 2021. 25 f. Artigo (Graduação em Dança) – Departamento de Artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte, Natal, 2021.https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/33675Talking about the body in education is thinking about gender and sexuality, race, discrimination, among many other ways of understanding this body that spends part of life in the school environment. Regarding Dance, sexuality and gender of LGBTQIA+ people, it is clear that traumas cause concerns that are often invisible and also made invisible in the school environment and that affect the teaching-learning process of these people. This research aims to understand how the discussion of gender and sexuality is dealt with in dance classes in elementary school of in basic education. It started from the methodological approach of descriptive qualitative research under the bias of the bibliographic research method and the case study. Throughout the text we emphasize that dance classes at school can be developed with great creative efficiency towards the resistance of sexual discussions and gender identity and project dance as a place to introduce themes and understand cultural diversity, gender and sexuality. This is a place where there is the potential to get out of the normative pattern and traditionalist customs, predominant by pre-judgments reproduced without questioning and respecting diversity.DançaEducaçãoGêneroSexualidadeLGBTQIA+Dança - Estudo e ensinoIdentidade de gêneroSensualidade na dançabachelorThesis
