%X The present article is part of a series of studies that articulate work and mental health. The aim is to analyze the relationships between the dance workers and the organization of dance as a work in light of the psychodynamic of work theory. This analysis focuses on the way dance workers mobilize their subjectivity while performing their daily work activities in Bal¨¦ da Cidade de S o Paulo (S o Paulo City Ballet), a public dance company linked to the Theatro Municipal de S o Paulo in Brazil (S o Paulo City Theatre). We aimed at understanding the strategies that are subjectively mobilized by the dancers when facing suffering due to work based on a qualitative study conducted through interviews and personal observation of the work process. We concluded that one of the strategies adopted by this group of workers is the quest for a split between the biological body, which is exercised on a technical way and used as a work tool, and the erogenous body, that houses the subjective experiences.
