We know that Super Teachers are important to the success of our dance studio business.
Why is finding Super Teachers so difficult?
Dance is a niche market. Depending on where your studio is located, the pool of qualified dance teacher applicants is sparse and sometimes non-existent.
Dance teachers come to us with different backgrounds and dance training. Often they have little to no “preschool” or “school-aged” dance teaching experience; prefer teaching high school dancers.
Some dance teacher applicants have limited skills or little professional dance training. Maybe they are proficient in only one or a few styles of dance. Unfortunately, most Universities and professional training programs don’t educate or ready them for a career teaching preschool or school-aged children dance.
Additionally, dance teachers have schedule conflicts due to other full or part time work. They can also have limited availability due to geographical restrictions.
