This article aims to discuss the training of Brazilian circus artists in contemporary times from possible insertions of Afro-Brazilian artistic practices as pedagogical and creative procedures. We start from the thesis that there is an emerging need to include anti-colonial practices in Brazilian circus arts. To this end, we ask the following questions: How could we use Afro-Brazilian techniques such as dramatic dances and capoeira in the formation of artistic and circus acts in contemporary times? What could we understand as a pedagogical and creative decolonization of Brazilian circus art, respecting its ancient tradition? As this article unfolds, some experiences are presented in which Afro-Brazilian practices were used in circus shows: Chez Zumbi (Brazil/France), Na Volta que o Mundo Dá (Ceará-BR) e Um Circo Bem Brazileiro (Piauí-BR).
