  • North Hollywood
  • Multiple positions
  • Ages 2–17
  • Pay tailored to you

The Opportunity

We are looking for teachers who want more than a time slot: partners who will help grow our current classes, develop new ones and share in that success.

We are dedicated to providing quality dance training for students of all ages. Having successfully run classes for every age group, we are now expanding our program for children and teens.

Open Positions

We're hiring for three programs. You don't need experience with every age group.

  • Ages 2–5

    Early Childhood

    Creative movement, pre-ballet, combo classes and more.

  • Ages 6–11

    Elementary

    Ballet, tap, jazz, hip hop, acro and more.

  • Ages 12–17

    Teen

    Technique and performance: contemporary, lyrical, jazz, hip hop, ballet and more.

Bring your own style: the styles above are only examples. We're not tied to any particular style and would love to build classes around what you teach best, so tell us about your specialties when you apply.

Who We're Looking For

Experienced instructors who know how to inspire and manage young dancers. Whether you specialize in one age group, such as our youngest dancers (ages 2–5), or teach them all, we'd love to hear from you.

  • At least two years of experience teaching dance in one or more of our age groups (early childhood, elementary or teen)
  • Strong class management, with age-appropriate progressions and choreography that keep dancers engaged and safe
  • A builder's mindset: invested in growing your classes and building strong relationships with families
  • Willing to help promote your program: bringing students, social media, trial classes, workshops and events
  • A warm, encouraging teaching style, reliability, professional communication and a team-first attitude
  • Able to pass a background check before the first day

What We Offer

Everything you need to focus on teaching and growing your program, with a warm, collaborative team behind you.

  • Pay tailored to you: a per-class rate or revenue share, set with you
  • Flexible schedule: mostly weekday mornings and afternoons
  • Creative input: your own choreography and class ideas
  • Marketing support: professional photo and video shoots
  • Front desk and admin support, so you can focus on teaching
  • Easy booking: our app handles bookings, payments and reminders
  • A brand-new studio: 1,700 sq ft, natural light, mirrors, changing rooms
  • Studio space for your own rehearsal and creative work
  • Free classes at the studio for our teachers
