Abstract

This research work aims at investigating teaching practices among karate instructors in the gyms of the greater Vitoria area (ES). The adopted methodology consists of data collection through observation, and structured interviewing. The collected data show that contents are treated in a dogmatic manner; methodology is based on oral explanations and teacher demonstrations; the teacher-student relationship favors one-sided decisions made by the teacher; examinations verify accuracy of techniques taught. In a summary, one can conclude that the presence of tradition and sports values in karate lessons is a blocking factor to the adoption of more critical and meaningful pedagogical practices. Keywords: karate – sport pedagogy – pedagogical practices.
