Dance is the official content of regular teaching in the discipline of Physical Education. With it, teachers can develop motor, intellectual, expressive and social skills of the student, and expand their understanding of cultural facts. This essay proposes to discuss the formation and the gain of knowledge through the teaching and learning of dance. The basis was Maxin Sheets-Johnstone's The Phenomenology of Dance, and Merleau-Ponty's Phenomenology of Perception. In this context, knowledge comes from the set of experiences lived bodily by the student during the resolution of activities, in this, the body-movement-kinesthesia-cognition relationship focuses on the main mechanism for the firmament of “embodied” knowledge.
