| Summary/Abstract |
This article examined, for the first time, religiously observant female dance teachers who take part in shaping a new path in dance instruction in a Jewish religious spirit within the Israeli general-religious education system. The article examined the connections between the teachers’ perceptions and positions on aspects related to their professional world, and between their commitment to, and satisfaction from, teaching. A total of 119 teachers participated in the study. The findings show that a predictor for satisfaction and commitment is the perception of reciprocation between teacher and the teaching profession, while commitment is also predicted by the intrinsic personal motivations.
