Certification
How teachers get certified
There is no syllabus to download and no level to buy. Certification happens in person, on the floor, over time.
What it is
In person, over time
Certification happens through the festivals and the bootcamps, in person, rather than through a published syllabus or an online course. Teachers train with us, are seen on the floor over time, and are certified when they are ready. There are no levels to buy and no fee schedule to download.
If you teach Tarraxo, or want to, come to an edition or a bootcamp and speak to us there.
The path
From dancer to certified teacher
Four stages, and none of them is an exam. The whole thing is judged on how you move and how you teach, watched over a long enough stretch to be sure.
- 01
Train at a bootcamp
Work on Tarraxa and Tarraxo foundations with the founders, in person.
- 02
Be seen on the floor
Dance the editions. Certification is judged on how you move over time, not in one exam.
- 03
Teach under supervision
Take workshop sections alongside a certified teacher.
- 04
Certified
Teach Tarraxo under the Global Tarraxo name once the founders say you are ready.
Getting started
Where to begin
Start by dancing the editions. Certification is not something you apply for from the outside: the founders certify people they have seen work, which means the first step is simply being in the room and putting the hours in. When you are ready to take it further, train at a bootcamp and say so. Bring the question to us in person rather than by email, because the answer depends on how you dance, and that is not something anyone can assess from a message.
Start on the floor
Every certified teacher started as somebody in the room. Come to an edition and start there.
