SUMMARY:

This research aims to think about dance possibilities for public schools, specifically emphasizing the early years of elementary school, based on aspects of Isadora Duncan's legacy. Isadora, as she is mostly called, had a very strong impact on Dance because, among her innovations, she was considered a liberator from the constraints of bodies, such as corsets and ballet shoes, for example. This learning phase urgently needs to be conducted towards an education on values, respect, care for oneself, and care for others (FOUCAULT, 1984). It also needs to act and to understand the great relevance of the anti-racist issue (RIBEIRO, 2019), something that must permeate all relationships, as well as to develop awareness of the environmental issue, paying attention to nature as a principle of life, as advocated by environmentalist Ailton Krenak (2019). One purpose is to reflect, analyze, and propose what would be most appropriate in terms of dance technique, in which the very conception of this dance moves factors such as care and respect, for nature and for others, and it is inserted in the conduction of a reflective dance. This research has sought and formulated arguments to discern these issues and what sensations a costume or “dressing for dance” can express in the movement and moment of dancing (ECO, 1982). To address the respect that is impregnated by the culture, environment, and genetics of children, Steven Pinker (2004) is a reference. In order to address the use of metaphors during dance classes, Lenira Rengel (2007) references this notion with the proposal of a metaphorical procedure of the body. As methodological procedures, it used dynamics of experiences, games with varied rhythms, audiovisual material with environments of nature, as well as improvisations in contact with nature, constructions of mandalas for the perception of aesthetics, and the essence of the class of the Technique of Isadora Duncan (KURTH, 2004). In this study, the use of the uniform is approached as a form of empowerment, of belonging to the place that educates and emancipates. Hence the idea of “Isadora wears a uniform”, that is, the children will not wear tunics (a garment associated with the dancer Isadora Duncan), but “Isadora” is the one who wears the uniform.
