Welcome to Level 1 - Foundations, which is a part of the A-Z Bellydance "Infinite Pathways" Teacher Training.

Level 1 - Foundations is a 20 hour training with four individual courses that come together somatically, musically and culturally. You will learn the somatic language of A-Z Bellydance which informs the energy of movement and future sequences, plus deep somatic awareness of individual moves which is important to assimilate early on, as it will help you embody the sequences and pathways as you progress to the next levels. You will learn 120 core movements, 40 Arabic rhythms and the musicality that informs bellydancing, particularly Egyptian dance. You will be able to embody these individual moves and also modify as you wish, depending on music and physical ability. Plus you will learn all the rhythms you need and the essential musicality required for excellent dance artistry.

Whether you wish to enhance your dancing for Personal Development or your invest in Professional Career Training as a Teacher, Performer or Wellness facilitator, the Complete A-Z Bellydance 'Infinite Pathways' Teacher Training is comprised of 5 levels. It holistically integrates all aspects of the Bellydancer - body, mind and soul. This series of courses will inspire you to reach new heights in your Dance Artistry!

At the end of this Level, you can undertake the Exam. Upon successful completion you will receive a certificate. You can study the course modules sequentially and train in your own time.

You have lifetime access to this course.

This course and its contents will serve as an invaluable resource library in the future as it is an Evergreen which means this course does not get taken down.

You can study with a supportive group that can discuss topics in the private Facebook forum, and you will be able to access Keti's bonus Masterclass zooms at the end of each level, to keep you inspired and on track until Graduation in Dec 2026 with a concert (held live in Perth and online) after the live teacher training week Dec 1-5 with the LOTUS stage production.
