Autoethnographic narratives and challenges for physical education in Physical Cultural Studies

ABSTRACT

This study explores Physical Cultural Studies as a field of dialogue for developing collaborative and theoretically informed research that can contribute to teaching and research experiences in Brazilian physical education. From the autoethnographic approach, the ways in which different experiences with the Physical Cultural Studies touched our identities were revisited, imprinting marks that (re)build us in our teaching, research, and intervention in social reality. The narratives that result from this joint and collaborative effort carry challenges that (re)signify experiences or aspects previously unexplored in our subjectivities, offering us the possibility to rethink and restructure our embodiment. Finally, besides sharing our narratives in the dialogue with Physical Cultural Studies, this field (epistemological, ontological, and methodological) is useful for dialogue with physical education in the Brazilian context.
