About the BBDC
BBDC was created originally on the decade of the 1990s by Alia Shams.
Alia Shams was creating professional bellydancers in 3 months program, with her own revolutionary teaching techniques, based in her investigations on the Ancient Pharaohnic Egyptian philosophy and dance.
Since 1993 to year 2000, her daughter and main disciple, Amora Shams was assisting at Alia Shams lessons, to those students who had difficulty to catch up the movements.
On year 1993, at the age of 17, Amora started to perform publicly at Alia Shams venues, sometimes sharing the same stage.
During the summers of years 1994, 95 & 96, they were known as "Las Moras de Caños de Meca" in the same town name, in the province of Cadiz, Spain. On that time, already the UNESCO dance department had recognised Alia Shams Arabian School of Dance on their website.
Since 1994 until 2008 Amora Shams was developing the teaching techniques and course structure of Alia Shams, specially from 2002 until 2008 while teaching in London, Barcelona, Almuñécar & Cairo, to a point that on year 2008 while living in Egypt, any female student who followed her teachings, plus doing the daily written and practical homework, could achieve in just 20 days a professional level no matter their starting level.
Amora is a recognized Equity member of the Professional Association of Dance & the Cultural Association both of Madrid, Spain, since 1999.
Amora came to Egypt with the purpose of been a performer, after 15 years performing internationally in Europe & Morocco, always been considered everywhere were she danced, one of the best in BellyDance.
But what she found in Egypt is students asking for certifications, so she decided on 2008, to start giving private level certificates only to those booking her 20 days Course, under her point of view, as a professional BellyDancer at that moment with more than 15 years of experience. At that time the course was known as 60hBDC (60 hours BellyDance Course), on 2010 started to teach also Arabic to her course students expanding 12 hours more to the course then she called 72hBDC (72 hours BellyDance Course), also studied in 20 days.
Then the UNESCO Dance Department is when contacted Amora on 2011, to let her know that the only official & international dance certificates can be provided by them, she was asked by them to provide all the evidences of her biography with references of her past as teacher and performer, which she did, and after their evaluation on a meeting they accepted her to become a recognized member as School and Teacher of the International Dance Certification Department providing international BellyDance Levels Certification to her course students on December 2011.
Since that moment, on January 2012 as the course was giving very good results, plus now had international recognition, the course new name was BBDC Become a BellyDancer Course.
Since 2015, as Amora was observing the degeneration of the Art of BellyDance, by how BellyDancers of the world were getting dressed showing too much and little art, plus majority were either robots, or photocopies of new fashion BellyDancers, or sexually degenerated movements publicly performed or even in posters; Amora as a defender of the high quality bellydance and it's tradition, she wanted to make a change to safe the reputation of BellyDancers, by making a difference, she created a blog known as GoldenBellyDancers, to show to the foreigner BellyDance community how should dress a professional BellyDancers and how should perform.
At that moment, she extended to the BBDC the movements of golden era, and also focus in the style of the Golden Era, renaming the BBDC as BGBDC Become a Golden BellyDancer Course, for this it had to be added some extra days, so instead of an intensive 20 days, had to be 24 days.
The UNESCO Dance Department only allows one level certificate per year per student, because of this, is advised to do the complete program in one time, instead of one level per year. So the highest level achieved is the one is issued at the termination of the course.
