Health promotion actions can serve as a strategy to promote democracy and social participation, and thus, the creation of health promotion groups linked to the perspective of Popular Education has a fundamental role in participatory democracy. This paper reports the formation of a health promotion group with actions based on Popular Education in health and corporal practices carried out by residents of the Multiprofessional Residency Program in Primary Care / Family Health of a University. This group, called "Movimenta SUS", was formed as a multiprofessional group with the purpose of integral care, to work on popular education actions and corporal practices. The experience allowed the strengthening of the bond, autonomy, care of oneself and the other, the use of public spaces, the feeling of belonging, cultural identity, the construction of a critical conscience and the experimentation of different experiences.

Keywords : Health promotion; Community participation; Popular education in health; Primary health care; Corporal practices.
