This article brings an overview of what was the doctoral research work entitled Brincando na Roda dos Saberes, presented in 2018 to the Graduate Program in Education at the Federal University of Paraíba, Brazil. Through university extension programs involving fellow researchers and volunteers, children enrolled in public schools had access to artistic and cultural knowledge by experiencing the Brincando Capoeira project, with workshops integrated into the political pedagogical projects of partner schools, among them the Escola de Basic Education at UFPB, and the Viva Olho do Tempo School. From the results obtained, the thesis stands out that the act of educating through the practice of capoeira from an ecological perspective has a positive and direct impact on corporeality. For this, creativity, socio-environmental interaction, solidary-affective engagement and reverence for the knowledge of popular traditions, especially oral-body knowledge, must structure the pedagogy of the process, constituting transdisciplinary actions. Playing, in this process, becomes the key to reconnect the body that plays and the wisdom that manifests itself.
