This thesis is the result of a research carried out in the Postgraduate Program in Education (PPGE), Federal University of Bahia (UFBA), in the Thematic Line Education, Body Culture and Leisure, placing its object of investigations of issues related to Social History, Physical Education, Bahia, UCSAL and Education, discussing each theme in a unique and articulate manner in an attempt to reconstruct events. The question that supports the research is: How were the pedagogical practices of teachers formed by the first class of Physical Education of the Catholic University of Salvador in the field of intervention in Physical Education in the state of Bahia? We point out as hypothesis: The formation and intervention model of the first class of Physical Education teachers in Bahia graduated by UCSAL was modeled on that established by ENEFD and its model had a decisive influence on the field of pedagogical intervention in the state of Bahia. From these elements, the study aimed to understand, in the time frame between the 1950s and 1970s, Physical Education and its developments in the field of pedagogical intervention, from the viewpoint of teachers trained in the first class of UCSAL. Methodologically we use the qualitative study, with data collection from bibliographic productions, books, magazines, periodicals, literary productions and other texts, and also use as instruments the interviews, opting for semi-structured and gathered around Social History. In the conclusions we realized that the initial impacts of the emergence of the course of UCSAL were minimal in the state. The course followed the model presented by the National School of Physical Education and Sports, which format reverberated in a maintenance of the model of intervention practices within the state Physical Education field.
