Level 2 Belt A
	Belt A

	Belts of Running Beats are constructed from the Run of 8 equal Beats. This even Run of 8 equal Beats is broken up and changed by removing 2 eighth Beats from the Run and replacing these 2 eighth Beats with 4 new 16 Beats. These 4 new 16 Beats come with a different count "1a+a" and have a different value in common timing. These 4 new 16 Beats are squeezed into the same space and time frame of 2 eighth Beats. Now all Beats in the Run are not equal to each other in there count and value. When all Beats in the Run are not equal to each other in there count and value it changes and becomes a Belt of Running Beats.

	To Compose Primary Belt A. Take an 8th Beat Run of eight equal Beats. With this 8th Beat Run the first and second two Beats are " 1 + ". These two 8th Beats " 1 + " are changed to " 1a+a ". These four New 16th Beats " 1a+a " are picked at a rapid or fast picking speed one after another in a stop go stop go manner. The next six Beats that are in the Run are " 2 + 3 + 4 + ". These six remaining 8th Beats " 2 + 3 + 4 + " are picked at a moderate picking speed and remain the same to complete this 10 Beat Belt of Running Beats.



	Primary Belts
	The first 4 Belts of Running Beats are called the Primary Belts, Belts A, B, C, D. These 4 Primary Belts are a 10 Beat Belt and have 10 individual Running Beats in each of them. No Belt of Running Beats has more Beats in it than the number of Beats that are in a measure.

	Belt A will be picked and counted like this:
	1a+a 2+ 3+ 4+
