Created for both performance and teaching, Keti's unique and comprehensive methodology - enriched over 20 years - offers a culturally informed learning experience with a deep Somatic approach. Live Egyptian music & rhythms feature with percussionist Sam Nascimento on darbuka as every routine is first demonstrated rhythmically, then to music in several modes, and finally as part of a choreography.

The addition of Farida Fahmy's teaching tips, Mahmoud Reda drills, new fitness classes and even deeper somatic (body/mind) exploration makes this the ultimate training for dancers who wish to gain performance credibility and confidence, and for teachers who wish to develop powerful, clear teaching strategies with a focus on wellbeing.
