This text deals with the training of Physical Education teachers in Pará between the 1930s and 1940s. In 1934, the first Physical Education Course aimed to prepare Physical Education teachers and instructors, and the goal was to prioritize teacher training and intensify the teaching of Physical Education in educational institutions. In 1942, the creation of a Physical Education School was organized in Pará, with the Normal Course having the function of training a body of Physical Education teachers capable of guiding, disseminating and unifying its practice throughout the state. Through the implementation of the 1934 Course and the Normal Course of 1942, seventy teachers were qualified to work in primary education, the first to be trained in Pará. Even though they were interrupted, both courses contributed to the development of Physical Education in the state.
