Testimonials from Students of Shemiran Ibrahim's Middle Eastern Dance Teacher Training Certifications & Workshops

 

 

"Absolutely fantastic and inspiring, this has given a clear concise curriculum to teach my students...It is simple and easy to understand. On a practical level it has given me the skills to improve my business side of things, as I am so focused on the dance side and feel my business skills are lacking so you have given me some fabulous ideas to improve this - the main reason I came (to this certification intensive), also too to add depth and energy to my class instead of me focusing on technique all the time. On a personal level I fel you are a wonderful teacher, so full of positive energy and vibe which makes your Teaching from the Heart Method so fulfilling. Thank you so much".
Dahlia; Director Dahlia's Bellydancing Studio - 2009

"Dearest Shemiran, Thank you for a well thought out and presented Teachers' Training Intensive. As a teacher you always wonder whether you are doing well or whether you are on the right path. Your curriculum is both informative and a logical process to follow, and although I have been teaching for many years I have learnt a new method of teaching and thinking, as well as re-affirming a few of my current methods. Thank you for your feedback and ideas. A total pleasure and honour to be present at this workshop and thank you for giving us a new beginning".
