Job description

The Movement Dance Experience is growing! We're seeking an exceptional, versatile, and committed Assistant Dance Educator with a focus in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Hip Hop to join our all-star team.
This is not just a job-it's a mission to support our lead instructors, nurture our dancers, and help create an environment where every student can thrive. As an Assistant Dance Instructor, you'll work closely with our primary educators, fill in as needed, and soon have the opportunity to lead your own classes as you grow with us.
Please note:
If you're looking for a temporary gig, a stepping stone, or just another side job, this may not be the right fit. We value commitment, long-term growth, and making a lasting impact on our students' lives.
This position requires availability during the following hours: Monday through Thursday, 3:00 PM to 8:00 PM; Friday, 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM; and Saturday, 9:00 AM to 2:00 PM. Applicants must be able to commit to this schedule. Candidates with scheduling conflicts during these times are asked not to apply.
Who We're Looking For
Versatile & Confident Assistants
  • Must have training in Ballet, Tap, Jazz, and Hip Hop. (Experience in Acrobatics/Tumbling and Pointe is a plus.)
  • Comfortable assisting in a range of classes for students from 18 months to adults.
  • Eager to learn, support lead instructors, and eventually transition into your own teaching role.

Reliable & Professional Team Players
  • Punctual, organized, and detail-oriented with a positive, proactive attitude.
  • Able to manage classroom dynamics under the guidance of lead instructors.
  • Dedicated to upholding studio standards and supporting our culture.

Growth-Oriented Mentors
  • Passionate about guiding students, tracking progress, and building a nurturing learning environment.
  • Committed to long-term professional development and contributing to the studio's success.
  • Excited to participate in performances, evaluations, and studio events.

What You'll Be Doing Dance Instruction & Classroom Support
  • Assist lead instructors in preparing and delivering engaging, structured lessons that align with our cumulative curriculum.
  • Help manage classrooms of up to 15 students, ensuring a safe, positive, and focused environment.
  • Take attendance, track student progress, and support achievement goals.
  • Guide trial students through their first classes, ensuring an unforgettable introduction to our studio.

Student & Family Engagement
  • Foster strong, positive relationships with dancers and their families.
  • Communicate important studio updates and events with clarity and warmth.
  • Support lead instructors in ensuring every student feels valued and encouraged.

Studio Involvement & Collaboration
  • Collaborate closely with fellow educators and staff to maintain a cohesive and supportive studio environment.
  • Assist with recital preparation, choreography support, and student evaluations as needed.
  • Contribute to maintaining a clean, organized, and welcoming classroom space.

Additional Responsibilities
  • Participate in studio marketing efforts (social media, photos, videos) as needed.
  • Report any classroom or studio issues promptly to management.

Compensation & Growth Opportunities
  • Base Pay: $15/hour
  • Estimated Hours/Classes Per Week: 8-30 hours
  • Performance-Based Incentives - Increase your earnings with performance bonuses tied to student enrollment and retention.
  • Opportunities for Professional Growth - As you gain experience and demonstrate classroom leadership, you'll have the opportunity to take on your own classes and move into a lead teaching role.
  • (Details on additional earning opportunities and incentive structures will be discussed further during the hiring process.)

Why Join The Movement Dance Experience?
  • A Studio That Feels Like Home - We're a close-knit team that values family, creativity, and excellence.
  • Opportunities for Professional Development - We invest in our educators' growth and long-term success.
  • More Than Just a Job - Be part of a meaningful mission where your impact is celebrated and rewarded.
