This study investigates the experiences of pleasure and suffering with the work of karate teachers in a metropolitan city of the state of São Paulo. The work psychodynamics was used as a theoretical approach. Seven individual interview were conducted with the teachers in 2019. The results indicate the invisibility of the work, extremely fragile contractual ties, poor structural conditions for the classes to be taught, high student demand for teachers' skills and high expectations of the teachers. students and their caregivers about the principles disseminated in class. It is important to stress the defensive strategies that, out of respect for the hierarchy and discipline of karate, in addition to the fear of losing the jobs (unemployment), organizations are submitted with the least questioning. The experiences of pleasure are maximized by working with students of social projects, as well as by the possibility of assisting them with other referentials besides the social problems they face.
