Popis: A paradox seems to run through our contemporary Western societies: between the search for a fulfilled life organized around bodily well-being (physical practices, curative methods, etc.) and the acceleration of time, which seems to hinder this personal development by condensing and fragmenting the experiences as they are lived. In Physical Education, the physical step practice does not escape this paradox. The proposed didactic framework is certainly based on an analysis of bodily sensations in order to organize one’s practice, but it is also based on the requirements of effort intensity and optimization of execution speed and motor qualities in order to meet training objectives. The aim of this article is to analyze the experience of pupils doing step exercise in a school setting. To what extent can this rhythmic and intense practice engage the pupils in a deceleration that could promote meaningful sensory experiences? Based in emersiology, the study is inscribed in the theoretical framework of the course of action in order to analyze the commitments and the sensory register of the pupils during school step classes. Finally, step offers a space of intentional deceleration that allows for listening to one’s body sensations.
