Trabalho de Conclusão de Curso (Graduação em Dança) – Departamento de artes, Universidade Federal do Rio Grande do Norte. Natal, 2024https://repositorio.ufrn.br/handle/123456789/59468This study investigated how the practice of belly dancing can be related to increasing the self-esteem of women who are overloaded with personal and professional tasks. The case study was based on a mini-course held with eleven female volunteers who took part in a series of ten belly dance classes, and through analysis of bibliographical research and the participants' logbooks. With regard to the theoretical basis, we dialogued with Professor Edson Claro's Dance Physical Education Method, as the main foundation that supported the application of these meetings. We realized that belly dancing alone does not guarantee an increase in self-esteem, but it was possible to observe various benefits that improve the self-image of these women, such as the attenuation of exaggerated feelings of self- criticism, the stimulation of creativity and the increase in the students' body awareness.Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs 3.0 Brazilhttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/3.0/br/dança do ventre;estudo de caso;mulheres;autoestima.bachelorThesisCNPQ::LINGUISTICA, LETRAS E ARTES
