I am moving to germany shortly (army family) and i plan to do shows that as soon as we get settled, not to mention being that europe has a lack of tribal dancers (being that ats is american) i want to do low scale beginners lessons....i am not qualified to do advanced lessons yet, but beginner level....

i plan to one day get certifiation to teach actual ats...

but anyways here is the question. for anyone tht has ever worked in europe. do i need a license in germany to dance and make profit? and for the teaching? for the teaching i planned just simple in home lessons, possibly working with the local military gym to help out with teaching classes. i know for certain countires you need an actual icense to dance...and i was not sur eif germany is one of them. of course i realize once i arrive in germany i have to get everything set up and check but just trying ot get a heads up right now.


to add in...if anyone knows anyone in the belly dance business located near wiesbaden, i would greatly appreciate a link or contact email. other than dancing myself and helping others get into it, i of course want to keep training and learn from new dancers so it is vital i learn the german dance scene asap!

thanks for your time ladies
