Certification Listing
A simple listing of the belly dance certification courses available.
Are you considering a certification in belly dance ? This listing should help you find a course suitable for your needs. This is simply a listing, and does not include recommendations. I have included payment estimations and duration where possible. The listing is divided between on-line courses, US courses and "rest of the world". All the information is correct as of 11/1/17. If you have an update or new listing, please add them as a comment to the final page.
Your Instructor
Sara Shrapnell spent 12 years teaching, performing and hosting events in the UK before moving to the Bay Area of San Francisco in 2011. Her classes are known for their humor, detailed breakdowns and cultural context. She adapts her lessons to suit the dancers, their needs and aims. Students who have studied with Sara have gone on to teach and perform in all styles of belly dance and many have made their living through performance or teaching. Sara’s books “Teaching Belly Dance” and “Becoming a Belly Dancer: From Student to Stage” are available on Amazon.
