The extension project “Bodily practices in flamenco dance: the relational space of a sensible body” brings the community of Cachoeira do Sul, RS, bases of body awareness, movement, expression and interpretation through the learning and knowledge of flamenco culture and dance. Flamenco has been recognized by UNESCO since 2010 as an Intangible Cultural Heritage of Humanity, being an artistic expression resulting from the composition of the song, musical touch and body movement, being only possible through the understanding of the art as a set of these elements. This composition has as its main objective to narrate a story (present in the song) and to express the feelings that such story brings (for example, sadness, happiness, regret). The project has the participation of the academic community and the general community of Cachoeira do Sul alike, developing expression and body awareness, fighting against sedentary, bringing quality of life to participants, improving posture and self-esteem, proposing challenges and teamwork. The project’s target audience ranges from young people to adults of all genders, proposing interaction and learning between different audiences. Art belongs from everyone to everyone, and the spread of different cultures makes a very positive contribution to the citizen formation.
