“It’s the most powerful training of any kind I’ve ever taken. Brilliantly organized, a lot of valuable content, delivered in such a way that it served my personal healing and embodiment while preparing me very well to teach. ” Cathrine Taye Slattery, USA
‘The experience of the training can only be described in uppercase words: INCREDIBLE, INTENSE, EXCITING, VIBRANT, DEEP, WONDERFUL, BEAUTIFUL. It has been a deep and intense journey into myself…. Anyone who wants to find themselves, this is the place and practice. I can return to my community feeling alive, happy and confident.” Lucia Lacabana, Argentina
“Azul is a very deep, powerful, spiritual and healing bodywork and as such it is very much needed in the world and I think it could be used in combination with many other healing professions.” Gudrun Zacher, Germany
The Training is designed for all those who wish to teach Azul classes and workshops and would like to build a local dance community.
The Training is also designed for movement teachers interested in expanding their horizons, for therapists who desire to incorporate movement into their practice, and for anyone interested in deepening their personal growth through the path of Azul .
The Azul Teacher Training is articulated into two 10-day residential modules Apprenticeship and Certification followed by periods of mentoring. After each module trainees meet with Amara via teleconferences, both individually and as a group to receive support in developing their teaching practice or bringing Azul into their current profession. The program can be completed within one year.
Participants also need to complete the Azul Trilogy – a series of three 6-day retreats designed to provide trainees with the necessary foundational work required to become an Azul teacher.
The Azul Trilogy is the personal development portion of the program while the Apprenticeship and Certification modules are the professional training and require an application. All Trilogy and Training modules are led by Amara Pagano.
Module One: Apprenticeship
Module One provides focused attention on the practice of embodiment and takes participants through an in-depth exploration of the guiding principles of the Azul Spiral. In addition, participants learn how to organize music, create playlists, produce classes, hold space and build local dance communities.
Upon completion of Module One, Apprentices are provided with tools and guidance to hold introductory Azul movement classes and gain access to the Azul Mentoring Program. As part of this program, Apprentices are supported by Amara’s guidance via scheduled group teleconference and individual calls during the six-month period prior to the commencement of Module Two training. In addition, there is peer mentorship support from other certified Azul Teachers for a nine-month period.
The Azul Mentoring Program is individually tailored, and it is designed to incorporate the embodiment and the practice of Azul and the components of the Azul Spiral in one’s life or professional setting. The program is also designed to support Apprentices in establishing their teaching practice and dance community.
Apprentices have the choice to attend Module Two and finish the program in the same year, or the following year.
Module Two: Certification
Module Two focuses on preparing Apprentices to form class content and teach Azul movement classes. During this training module, participants have the opportunity to deepen their understanding and embodiment of the principles of the Azul Spiral. Apprentices also receive guidance in aligning with their higher purpose as teachers and leaders.
Upon completion of Module Two and the Azul Trilogy -that is a pre-requisite for certification- trainees receive the Azul Teacher Certification and are qualified to teach Azul movement classes. They will also receive continued guidance from Amara and other certified Azul teachers via group teleconference and individual calls in support their teaching practice for an additional 6-month period.
As an additional benefit, both Apprentices and Teachers have ongoing access to the Azul School Drive, which contains valuable marketing, administrative and informational tools and resources designed to support the practical application of the Azul principals and methodology in a professional setting.
The Teacher Training is a mutual commitment and investment. It not only includes your attending the three Trilogy retreats, the two Training Modules and the Apprenticeship program.
It also includes my personal investment in you, your education, your learning, your life and evolution. My intention is to mentor you in becoming an amazing facilitator and inspiration for others.

“The training was absolutely the best dancing and connection I’ve ever done….it’s an embodiment of nine precepts or ways of being in the world. It’s a spiral path of awakening the heart as we/I dance these vehicles of exploration. Azul takes us through a journey that awakens our consciousness working with the intelligence of the body. I found that when the word “embodiment” is used, I can now allow my body, the cells to respond with information I hadn’t know prior to the dance.
Another part of the training is the use of technology and making playlists, working with the music itself. As a”non-techie” I learned SO much. Each person compiled a play list and offered a warm up session to the group. Everyone helped everyone else! The teacher training component gave us an excellent foundation to “go forth.” Karen Holmes, USA
“The Azul Teacher Training gave me hands-on tools I’ve experienced in my own body first. I experienced learning by dancing in a safe, supported and loving space and enjoyed being with an international group of like-minded people with big, open hearts.” Katja Hoffman, Australia
