Abstract

South Motricities are motricities that constitute and sustain themselves in the ways of being and being in the world, in the ways of understanding the human, the universe and nature, of people, communities and peoples who have been and still are harmed / marginalized by the coloniality of the Knowledge, which are located in the geographical and / or metaphorical south. Thus, in a "sublimated" (non-guided) perspective, in a non-dichotomous universe between physical and mind, body and soul, sacred and profane, person and world that gives rise to the South Motricities, the diversity of experiences of fruition of games, fights, dances, parties, songs and stories of people, communities and socially marginalized people that are configured in a particular way, both in their understanding and in their execution, in the everyday life-to-life process. Such people, communities and peoples and their respective motives, even if they are marginalized by the dominant culture, can bring about practices: 1) refusal of determinism and oppressive rationalities; 2) teaching and learning characteristic of these groups; 3) actions for the search for freedom, solidarity, resistance and claim, understood as counterpoints necessary to overcome a system of hegemonic and oppressive practices and knowledge, which attributes to the South Motricities a strong identity, counter-hegemonic and resistance character to the epistemological north. The epistemological opposition demands looking at the subjects's experience, investigating with others, in horizontal dialogue, knowledge/motricity that resisted successfully in the way of epistemology. The development of this thesis is based on theoretical references lined and articulated around studies of human motricity, epistemology from south and dialogical pedagogy that are ontological perspective of human beings to transcend themselves and are related to the possibility of overcoming oppressive and dehumanizing realities.
