Hi!

Can you recommend any good books on teaching belly dance or dance in general?

Thanks!

    Anthea has a book on teaching bellydance that she sells on her website: www.kawakib.com/page-6.html.

    I'll admit that I've bought it, but I haven't sat down and read through it, yet. However, I bought her guide to choreography at the same time, and it's marvelous! So, I'm betting that her teaching one is also wonderful.

    thank you ladies, I appreciate your nice remarks - glad it's helped even a bit.
    one of these days....it'll get a rewrite :-)

    were you looking for the biz side of starting a dance class or just content for structuring a class?

    This is a book (well I guess it is a whole course- dvds, music, handbook, business templates, & weekly class plans)
    that may be helpful to the start-up of a business... but not having used it personally, perhaps some one else who has can comment on whether or not they recommend it. It certainly sounds like a convenient one-stop start-up guide.

    Has anyone reviewed this package or know someone who used it?

      Thanks for the suggestions. I've been teaching for a few years so I'm looking for books with ideas on different teaching methods as opposed to how to start up a class. I know what we learn from our own dance instructors is invaluable, but it's good to learn from other teachers experiences and outlooks too.
