What We Are Looking For
Founded in 2018, SkyPole Fitness is a sensual dance & fitness studio that offers a variety of classes including pole dance, twerk, chair dance, aerial hammock, flexibility, and more. If you are a pole, aerial, or dance instructor OR instructor-in-training, with at least 2 years experience then we want you!
Positions Available:
Level 1-2 Pole Instructor
Twerk/Hip Hop Instructor
Handstand Expert
Aerialist (lyra)
Sensual Dance Fitness
About the Position
This is a VERY part time position. Most instructors start out teaching 1-2 classes per week, with a starting pay of $25 for a 1 hour class. In addition, each instructor is allowed up to 5 private lessons monthly and keep 100% of fees. This is an added benefit if you choose; you are not required to do private lessons. You will have 24/7 access to the studio for practice. You will not be expected to perform any duties outside of teaching your class.
What you MUST Have
At least 2 years of experience teaching ADULTS or practicing your craft
Ability to explain technical movements and proper muscle engagement
Ability to create choreo using 8-counts. Some students want to "dance to the flow of the lyrics" and some want a structured count, you should know both techniques
Ability to work to teach at least 1 weekday evening class per week...the specific day/time is flexible
Ability to post on social media when the occasion arises. Having a dedicated dance IG would be ideal. We don't require instructors to post on our behalf, however, if you have a regular day job that would require you to "hide" the fact you work at a pole studio then this is not a good fit.
If applying for a pole or aerial position: you must know the most common names of moves that are taught at a typical studio. We know names can vary, but generally speaking a jade split is a jade split no matter where you go!
Check our our IG to get a feel for what our vibe is.
