This article aims to problematize the possibilities and the limits of continuing education developed by the teacher’s epistemology of praxis as a result of his/her teaching practice. The epistelomology of praxis developed in this article is based on dialectical historical materialism, as a basis for the construction of knowledge of a critical and emancipatory formation. The subjects of this study were teachers of a public elementary school of the city of Curitiba, whose possibilities and limits in this process were considered. This research was a case study on qualitative approach of descriptive nature and on the dialectical materialism method. The main authors used as theoretical references are: Mikhail Bakhtin, Maria Isabel da Cunha, Paulo Freire, António Nóvoa, Augusto Nibaldo Silva Triviños, Adolfo Sanchez Vázquez and Álvaro Vieira Pinto.. The results indicate that the formation through praxis is possible, as a limit to the pragmatic formation and activism.
