Develop your A-Z Teaching skills, become an A-Z CERTIFIED TEACHER within a supportive dance network and be certified to teach Keti's A-Z Bellydance Personal Techniques study courses internationally. Enjoy a holiday in the resort town of El Gouna, on Egypt's Red Sea!
Join us for Keti's A-Z Bellydance Teacher Training Certification in 2011. Courses facilitated by four instructors - Keti Sharif, Suzanne Oehlers, Paola Blanton and Marta Marencic, in El Gouna, Red Sea, Egypt. Courses combine 6 days of practical training plus study of Teacher Training course material to cover all professional aspects of A-Z dance teaching skills, choreography, use of props, lesson planning, cultural styles and teaching modes. Once certified, participants will be fully qualified to host A-Z certified courses internationally at the highest professional level of this system.
10am-1pm and 3pm-6pm daily - total 18 hours
A-Z Advanced Teacher Training course dates Sep 9,10,11
10am-1pm and 3pm-6pm daily - total 18 hours
A-Z Assessor's course date Sep 12
10am-1pm and 3pm-6pm - total 6 hours
Keti is teaching the A-Z Assessor's Course for those wishing become qualified A-Z Assessors, able to competently assess students in A-Z Personal Techniques courses and write reports.
Note: Participants must know all routines, and be PT certified BEFORE entry into these courses, as there is no time to learn the routines during the course - you need to fully understand and be able to perform each routine to standard at the time of the courses. TT courses focus on the advanced application of the routines; teaching, choreography, props, formation and cultural modes. Maintaining this entry level standard ensures all participants get the most out of the courses and maximize the use of tuition hours. The goal is high level teacher training of the A-Z system, so the participant will leave with the all the necessary skills to competently teach PT courses on completion.
Pre-Requisites
Certification in A-Z Original and/or Advanced Personal Techniques study courses is required for entry into Teacher Training courses. Each PT course takes 6-12 weeks to complete and can be purchased online. Students are required to send in dvds or YouTube clips for assessment until all routines are demonstrated to meet assessment criteria, and full written assessment reports are delivered. Do you either have the PT courses but have not sent in your assessments? Or are not PT Certified yet but would like to be? You can easily study and complete both Orig and Adv PT courses in 3-6 months. To discuss a study plan or timeline for becoming certified in your A-Z PT pre-requisite courses, email Keti.
Learn in a focused environment and enjoy a long 2 hour lunch break daily by the beach or pool!
