This article aims to understand the place of Marajoara Fight in the Physical Education undergraduate curriculum of a public Higher Education Institution (HEI) in northern Brazil. A field research was conducted from an interview with a semi-structured directed to two teachers teaching the Fight content, as well as a focus group with graduating students. The results revealed that Marajoara Fight has an implicit place in the curriculum and is absent in the teaching practices of the course in question. It was concluded that this body practice, of Brazilian and Marajoara identity, cannot legitimize itself in the curriculum of the initial formation in Physical Education, result of the marginalization of it knowledge.

Keywords : Marajoara fight; Physical education; Teacher training.
