Abstract

This theoretical and bibliographical text is intended as an initial reflection on professional training in Physical Education in Brazil based on some contributions put forward by Beck and Giddens’ theory of reflexive modernization. The first section presents some insight into the dynamics of reflexive modernization in order to think about professional training in the area. The second section attempts to measure what the initial training process in PE has been, has not been, and may be, based on hermeneutic recovery of the reflexive modernization process.
