This research aims to analyze students' opinions about a Yoga project developed with a group of the 3rd year Elementary School of a public school in Bauru - SP, seeking to reflect on the possibilities and challenges of the inclusion of Yoga in the school environment, especially with children. Sixteen children who obtained authorization from their parents to collaborate with the study participated in the study. The teaching and learning process lasted four months, totaling 13 weekly meetings lasting 50 minutes each. Yoga activities were developed in a playful way. Two methods were used to collect data: focal group at the end of the process and field observation, with journal entry to each class. The data collected were discussed according to the production of literature related to Yoga, the child and education. The analysis of the results showed: the positive acceptance of all the students to the ludic activities of Yoga; the affection with the postures realized in the classes; difficulties in flexibility, strength and balance for the execution of postures; positive changes in student behavior during class with teachers and other students; the understanding of some of the ethical and moral values linked to Yoga; self-knowledge; and the increase in the repertoire of manifestations of body culture. It is concluded that Yoga in the school environment enables the enrichment of the repertoire of the body culture of movement, contributing to the development of new possibilities within Physical Education, since the theme is accepted by all students.
