              We worked with Caíque, teacher in the gym Gávea Gym.We observed the Muai Thai lessons for students from both genders, ageing between 16-25. The teacher used the punchingbag and pillows to work punchs and kicks with the students. From the words that compose the vocbulary universe of the teacher, we settled as our objetive to the project: "Move, change with velocity". By the experiments made and afterwords organized by the teacher, we identified the intention to work the movement and speed of the student. We made then a bag to work the dodging,it was made of a closed plastic bag filled with sand,inside a cotton covered satin bag, fixed on a rope, utilizing plastic strap so as to close the pendulum and fix the nylon rope. As a finishing, we used a rubber so as to fix the rope to the pendulum. Among all the things we learned,the experimentation of materials was far most the more important, testing new possibilities for the materials to use. The object is being used atatched to a metalic ring on the ceiling, working the student's dodging abilities, either alone or in pairs.

Intercessor´s OBSERVATIONS :

" The pendulum is from great importance in the improvement of the aglility and movement speed of my athletes."
