Dance Teaching Positions

 

Bollywood and or Folk Dance Positions

There are several places you can teach dance around the New Jersey area . Why should you consider teaching with us?

As a dance teacher you have several different studios you can choose to teach in. If you have freedom to express your artistic style through your teaching, the main difference will be how the organization of the studio affects your satisfaction and ability to focus on your teaching.

Here are reasons why dance teachers choose to teach at Indianica Academy:

  1. Small class sizes.
    We limit class sizes to make classes easier to control and monitor for teachers and to give more personalized attention to students. Our classes for ages 6 and up are limited to a maximum of 12 students per class.
  2. Full time administrative support.
    In many studios there is no receptionist on duty. This means that the teachers are faced with administration details when they should be concentrating on teaching. We have full time front desk administrative staff during class times to handle routine questions and details that arise.
  3. Extras are taken care of.
    We try to take care of all of the extra details throughout the year. Teachers are not required to collect any fees. We also take care of all the organization of yearly recitals. We try to have everything well organized so the teachers are free to concentrate on teaching and nothing else.
