Abstract
The aim of this study was to understand how physical education teachers perceive the manifestations of exclusion in physical education classes. The study is characterized as a descriptive research with a qualitative approach. Semi-structured interviews were conducted with teachers from a public school in Rio de Janeiro city. The results pointed out the occurrence of several exclusion processes with greater emphasis on those involving gender issues and ethnic-racial relations. Pieces of evidence showed that the discussion about such topics should happen more effectively and present in university curricula, especially those focused on teacher education.

Summary
Because groups previously disregarded and in socially vulnerable contexts began to demand greater economic, political, and cultural participation, some power relations, constructed historically and socially reproduced, were being destabilized. The lower social strata represent the non-erudite cultures, classified as popular and their ethnicities, seen as inferior In this way, more consolidated identities are built with fewer possibilities of emancipation. The social representations of each society built by the construction and internalization of its codes, symbols, and rituals, occurring through its agents in constant interaction (Alves-Mazzotti, 2008; Coulon, 1995; Madeira, 1991; Silva & Votre, 2012). In this dynamic, the processes of exclusion by society, many everyday practices are tactical (Certeau, 2008). The difference happens as one of the multiple identities and possibilities that circulate in the social web
