This article accesses the experiences in the university extension in Gymnastics for All (GPT) and its reverberations in the undergraduate students and professionals in Physical Education and Sport. As methodological support, qualitative research was addressed, using Focus Groups with 17 participants from nine GfA groups representing 4 Brazilian regions for data collection. Thematic Analysis indicated two axes of discussion: 1. Life experience/previous experience of the participant as a teaching and learning strategy in gymnastics that potentiated gymnastics interfaces with other corporeal practices and the students' autonomy and, 2. Co-construction work of sessions and choreographies: confirming the teacher as a mediator of the process, where themes, costumes, materials, movements are defined by the whole group. Notably, the students justified that the proposals expanded the perception of class organization and/or training, subject to different contexts, such as schools and clubs.
