The proposition of this thesis is that the experience of the body in Capoeira is evidence of an esthesiological and sensitive education, which amplifies its senses and contributes to the process of building subjects who are conductors of their own histories and also of a better understanding and appreciation of the culture in which they are inserted. As objectives, we sought to highlight education from the gestures and experiences of Capoeira; point out the educational meanings present in Capoeira; reflect on an esthesiological education in Capoeira, using Merleau-Ponty's phenomenological method as methodological support, together with the network of meanings. In the search for these meanings, I report on my own history and experience with Capoeira and on my experience and perception with the visit to the Capoeira Memorial, located in the Cidade Nova neighborhood in Natal, we also conducted structured interviews with Capoeira Mestres and Contramestres and the description and discussion of the film Besouro and all this data and impressions were gathered and discussed, following the first order of perception, then description, reduction and understanding of the phenomenon investigated with the help of authors such as Merleau-Ponty (1992; 2000; 2011), Paul Zumthor (1993), Medeiros (2010), Nóbrega (2010; 2015; 2016) and Freire (1987). As a result, we were able to discuss and confirm the body as the first and unified source of knowledge and that sensitive education has a lot to contribute to education, highlighting aesthetiology as enabling the structure of communication given by perception, which will trigger new learning, new knowledge. We therefore conclude that learning Capoeira cannot be a simple repetition of movement, but must give meaning to the movements, communicate through its gestures, get to know the elements that make it up, that form the roda, be they the instruments, the rituals, the music or the strokes, picking up their meanings that are there, latent and ready to fill our being, educating through the aesthetiology of the body.
