The present work aims to analyze Jiu-jitsu, as a martial art and non-formal educational practice, in the process of human formation of practitioners of an academy of that fight, in the city of Porto Franco - MA. For this purpose, a research was carried out in two stages. The first stage, of a bibliographic nature, served as theoretical support for the elaboration of the subsequent phases. The second stage, consisted of a field research, which used as techniques: the participant observation, of classes of a children's class; the semi-structured interview, carried out with the three (03) teachers of the academy and with six (06) parents / guardians for the children participating in the research; and the production of drawings by nine (09) children observed in class, from 06 (six) to 12 (twelve) years. The analysis of the field records took place in a qualitative way, privileging the crossing between the subjects' points of view and the reading concerning the theme. The interpretations made it possible to understand Jiu-jitsu beyond a competitive sport, forging an educational practice with a significant influene on the various dimensions of the articipants' social life. The theoretical contribution of bibliographic research was supported by authors such as Tubino, 2002; Castro, 2018; Rufino and Darido, 2015; Brazil, 1997.
