Abstract

The present document starts with a brief discussion about the legitimacy and relevance of the body’s expressive activities, particularly as they are applied to physical education classes and related extracurricular activities. Next, we focus our attention on a specific circus modality, the “stilt,” and observe some important fundamentals for its application as an activity as well as discussing some of its practical consequences. Finally, based on practical experiences over the past three years in Spain, we present a pedagogical proposal for working with the stilt at both the elementary and high school levels.
