This interview were applied to 15 (fifteen) teachers linked to public and private schools, of both sexes, with the age group between 20 (twenty) and 60 (sixty) years old, regularly participating in schools. In this way, after obtaining the subjects' data, which were captured through Information and Communication Technology (ICT) and verbatim transcribed, the information was analyzed using the technique of discourse analysis. From the data collected, we conclude that most teachers know some characteristics related to the Artistic Gymnastics content and consider it as important because it is a content of school physical education that helps in motor development.
