In this article we are presenting a topic of study referred as body education. We have read Friedrich Nietzsche in the light of the ideas of taste, body and education, with the interest of expanding the horizons of interpretation for an academic setting in need of a (another) meaning. We have appealed to Nietzsche's thought in order to approach study objects he never explored properly, such as the formation of taste from the body in a pedagogical perspective and towards a body education. We have discovered that the concepts of taste formation and body may serve as analytical tools for our research.
