Thus, this study aims at identifying how the complexity of Capoeira can dialogue with ludocultural teaching knowledge, at early stages of Physical Education degree. Throughout theory and methodology, it identifies Capoeira as complex knowledge which advances in the necessary dialogue with ludocultural teaching knowledges. It is a qualitative, descriptive and exploratory research whose methodology, the content analysis, has as procedures the narrative interview and the Research Journal. Most respondents are Capoeira teachers from Physical Education graduation course of public colleges from Northeast Brazil. Main results reached show ludocultural teaching knowledge among necessary teaching skills, which means an interlacing of pedagogic, ludic and cultural knowledges, showing its dialogue with Capoeira, seen as complex knowledge and robust representative of cultural elements to be developed in Physical Education at schools. It comprehends ludic as educative asset, under multidimensional human dimension and suggests key elements for an epistemology experience, advocating for that the Afro-descendant matrix of Capoeira. It is also an invitation to a reflection under Berimbau Pedagogy, as multidisciplinary ambience where Ludocultural teaching knowledge is supported, whose complex and dialogical terms are explicit in the wide knowledge of Capoeira. It validates the proposal of higher insertion of Capoeira at early stages of Physical Education degree, under complex thinking and in the light of open, unpredictable and inseparable thinking which allows full comprehension of its essence as a form of contribution to ethnic relations that must be recognized by future teachers, as part of their responsibility with future students renewing pedagogical steps in this fight that belongs to all of us.
