Resumo
O Yoga e outras práticas com características meditativas vem ocupando cada vez mais
espaços na sociedade contemporânea, seja na busca por bem-estar ou Práticas Corporais de
caráter não esportivo, ampliando sua abrangência. A área da saúde vem dialogando e
observando este movimento, especialmente a partir da concepção da integralidade e/ou
holística. Essa pesquisa tem como objetivo investigar possíveis desafios na prática dos
profissionais de Educação Física que atuam com Yoga, na perspectiva de ampliar o
entendimento de integralidade, a partir da concepção da Saúde Holística. Estudos recentes
têm discutido os benefícios do Yoga para saúde, porém, pouco se fala sobre como é realizada
a prática, sob quais perspectivas e suas possíveis relações com a atividade física. Trata-se de
uma pesquisa descritiva, de abordagem qualitativa. Esta foi realizada junto a profissionais
que atuam no Serviço Social do Comércio no Estado de São Paulo (Sesc SP), que oferece
Práticas Corporais regulares aos frequentadores em suas unidades. A amostra foi composta
por 15 profissionais que atuam com Yoga em unidades do estado de São Paulo. A coleta de
dados foi realizada por meio de formulário e entrevista semiestruturada. A análise foi
realizada pelo método da análise de conteúdo, sistematizada em categorias: Conceito e
Práticas de Yoga, Práticas Corporais, Saúde Holística, Yoga na Instituição e Democratização
da Prática do Yoga. Nos resultados obtidos foram identificados que há desafios e conflitos na
formação e atuação desses profissionais, tais como: qual o entendimento de Yoga utilizado e
como ensinar, não ter a clareza sobre o conceito de Práticas Corporais e o entendimento de
sua atuação na promoção de saúde. Os dados da pesquisa permitem concluir que existem
fragilidades nas relações da Educação Física com as Práticas Corporais e o Yoga; a
necessidade de ampliar e melhorar o pensamento de saúde dos profissionais que já se
identifica menos fragmentado mas com dificuldades em aplicação do olhar unificado e
holístico; e ter a possibilidade da prática profissional na instituição acontecer com mais
trocas, escuta e proximidade com o público frequentador, gestores (as) e educadores (as).
The Yoga and other practices with meditative features have been embracing more spaces in the contemporary society, either for the search of wellbeing or for Practices of the Body with non-sportive characteristics, broadening its extension. The heath field has been dialoging with and observing this movement, specially from its completeness and/or holistic concept. This research has the goal of investigating possible challenges in the practice of Physical Educators’ performance when working with Yoga, in a perspective of amplifying the completeness of its awareness from the concept of the Holistic Health. Recent studies have been discussing the benefits of Yoga for the heath, though little has been mentioned about the awareness and its practice, from which perspective and its possible relation to the physical activity. This is about descriptive research of a qualitative approach. It was accomplished together with professionals of the Social Service of Business of the State of São Paulo (Sesc SP), that consistently offer Body Practices to the regular members in their unities. The sample is formed by 15 professionals that work with Yoga in unities in the state of São Paulo. The data collection was done through forms and semi structured interview. The examination was done through the content analysis systematized in categories: Concept and Practice of Yoga, Body Practice, Holistic Health, Yoga in Institution and Democratization of the Practice of Yoga. The obtained results identified that there are challenges and conflicts regarding these professionals’ training and performance, such as: what is the comprehension of Yoga and how to teach it, lack of awareness of concept related to the Body Practice and about the understanding of their practice in the promotion of the heath. The data of the research permits to conclude that there are weakness between the Physical Education with the Body Practices and the Yoga; the urge of broadening and improving the professionals’ understanding of health, already identified less fragmented but with difficulties to amplify the holistic and unified view; thus having the possibility of the professional practice in the institution to happen with more exchanging, listening and closeness with the regular members, managers and educators.
