Part time dance instructors often juggle a variety of responsibilities, including lesson planning, teaching different age groups or dance styles, and handling administrative tasks like attendance and communication with students or parents. Effective time management is crucial, as instructors may teach at multiple studios or schools in a given week. Many instructors set aside specific times for choreography and prep work outside of class hours and rely on organizational tools to keep schedules and student progress on track. Collaboration with other instructors and studio staff is common, fostering a team environment that helps share the workload and maintain smooth operations.

Strong interpersonal skills, patience, and motivational ability help you connect with students and foster a positive learning environment. These skills are crucial for delivering effective instruction, keeping students engaged, and ensuring smooth class operations.

Their responsibilities include demonstrating techniques, choreographing routines, providing constructive feedback, and fostering a positive learning environment.

Job description

ABOUT US:

DivaDance is the #1 brand for pop-music inspired, choreography-based dance classes, programs, and parties - with franchises across the US and in Mexico. Joining our staff is an opportunity to change lives, empower others, and do what you love as we inspire confidence and build community in our inclusive, all-levels classes. We offer flexible working hours, professional development opportunities, leadership growth paths (including pathways to your own franchise ownership), and the exciting (and fun!) chance to be part of a growing, values-driven franchise organization.

THE GIG:

You're the Queen (or King!) Bee of every DivaDance class, teaching clients original choreography to songs ranging from Bey to Biebs. Our classes are for all levels and follow a consistent DivaDance format. Our ideal candidate has a big personality, experience creating choreography and teaching adults, and is super responsive via phone/text. Flakes or last-minute excuse-makers need not apply! This is a great role for someone who wants to earn extra Venmo or manicure money while doing what they LOVE. You will be required to complete our online Instructor Development Program before teaching your first class. There is no cost to you for this professional development

HOURS, COMPENSATION, LOCATION:

We are looking for you to teach 1-2 classes per week - mostly in the evenings and possibly on weekends. DivaDance brings our classes into existing facilities - we do not have our own physical location. You can expect to teach at our studios in Las Vegas and should have reliable transportation to get there for classes!

Compensation starts at $30 per class.

EXPERIENCE REQUIRED:

You must have experience teaching and choreographing for adults. Bonus points for former dance team/drill team/cheerleaders. Our application process will require that you submit a video of your original choreography.

Applications without choreography links will not be considered.
