Dançando a tradição: uma proposta pedagógica para a dança regional sul-mato-grossense

Abstract

This research aimed to find ways to teach regional dance in Mato Grosso do Sul in formal education, using the principles of Brazilian dance and sensitive education based on what students bring from their own context and of his ancestry. To this end, a pedagogical proposal is presented based on extensive bibliographical research and on my experience as an Arts teacher in the municipal network of Campo Grande-MS since 2011. This proposal proposes to awaken the playing body of students and was elaborated from authors who discuss Brazilian dances, such as Gabriela Salvador (2021) and Mariana Monteiro (2011), the sensitive education, discussed by João-Francisco Duarte Junior (2000) as well as the counter-colonizing thought of Antônio Bispo dos Santos ( 2015) and by native peoples through the contribution of Daniel Munduruku (2009), in addition to authors who dialogue with these thoughts from the point of view of Art and Dance in formal education. Considering the relevance of working with the body structures of Brazilian dances and seeking to value sensitive processes related to the way of thinking of native peoples in education, the proposal discussed here seeks to awaken students of Elementary School I to a practical and reflective thought about the Brazilian body that dances, generating a possibility of teaching/learning regional dance in regular Art classes in formal education. Keywords: Art education; sul-mato-grossense regional dance; countercoloniality.
