SUMMARY:

The present research is proposed in Line II: Formative Process in Technological Education of Pos-Graduation Program in Technological Education (PPGET) of Federal Center of Technological Education in Minas Gerais (CEFET-MG), which studies focus on themes related to work-education in socio-economic and political-cultural context, highlighting the historical and cultural processes, the relationships between societal changes, the formal and non-formal professional education and the world of work. It is considered here the broad concept of Technological Education, presented by Manacorda (1966, 2007) e Oliveira (2000), as synonymous with polytechnics. Sports is then presented as a pedagogical tool in itself, with a formative and educational character that contributes, in addition to teaching technique and motor aspects, as a way of educating the social subject in and through the physical activity (BENTO, GARCIA e GRAÇA, 1999). In turn, sports instructors are considered as a professional class of educators in this area. Based on Hirata’s (2002) assertion that the researches cannot be gender-blinded, female jiu-jitsu instructors were chosen as the subject of this investigation. The objective was, through critical analysis of the division of labor between men and women in the teaching of this markedly male sports, to understand the different forms and influences of social relations of sex/gender in this field and in the work of female instructors of this sports, from a dynamic and  all-encompassing interpretation of reality. For that, a qualitative approach was adopted, using bibliographic review and empirical data collection instruments, mined in in-depth interviews with jiu-jitsu instructors who work at sports academies in Metropolitan Regions of Belo Horizonte, in Minas Gerais. The theoretical-conceptual bases for the analysis of these data are based on the theories of the sexual Division of Labor and the Social Relations of sex/gender, derived from the Marxist-based French Sociology of work (KÉRGOAT, 1994; HIRATA, 2002, among others). Through the reported methodologies, we seek to answer the following question: How is the sexual division of work among jiu-jitsu instructors, a markedly “masculine” sport? The results of this study indicate that asymmetries in social relationships of sex/gender, especially in the studied sport, create a hostile environment for women. Factors such as the association of the practice of the modality with characteristics such as strength, violence and masculinity, the perspective that combat sports “masculinizes” the woman, among other factors, oppose the current stereotype of femininity, composing a scenario in which women are seen as out of place.
