| description | This article, written autoethnographically, recovers my experience in the practice of martial arts. It focuses on the meanings of masculinity among my male classmates, and in my own physical and emotional transformation to be part of a masculine world. The paper presents a dual challenge: on the theoretical dimension, it aims to shed light on the meaning of the practice of martial arts and its relationship with the regulations that define masculinity. In the methodological dimension, it seeks to explore the practice of autoethnography, its potential and limitations. |

It focuses on the meanings of masculinity among my male classmates, and in my own physical and emotional transformation to be part of a masculine world. The paper presents a dual challenge: on the theoretical dimension, it aims to shed light on the meaning of the practice of martial arts and its relationship with the regulations that define masculinity. In the methodological dimension, it seeks to explore the practice of autoethnography, its potential and limitations. Este artículo, escrito en clave autoetnográfica, recupera mi experiencia en la práctica de las artes marciales. Se centra en el sentido que adquiere la masculinidad entre mis compañeros varones, así como en mi propia transformación física y emocional para integrarme a ese mundo estrictamente masculino. El escrito supone un doble desafío: en la dimensión teórica, pretende arrojar luz sobre el sentido de la práctica marcial y su relación con las regulaciones que orientan la masculinidad. En la dimensión metodológica, busca explorar la práctica de la autoetnografía, sus potencialidades y limitaciones.
