Abstract

From the 1870s on, São Paulo experienced changes that gave it new dynamics, triggering initiatives related to ideas of civilization and progress. Better organization of public entertainment was part of that scenario. This study aims to discuss the first experiences of skating organized in São Paulo between 1877, when the first skating rink was created, and 1912, a well-structured establishment was open and marked the definitive conformation of the practice in the city. The main source of the study was newspaper A Província de São Paulo/O Estado de S. Paulo.
