Teaching dance to children is a very rewarding experience - you have the opportunity to build a child's self-esteem, help them learn new skills and just have a lot of fun. Teachers are pivotal to having children "get" the dance experience. Not a professional? No problem! At American Dance, you don't have to be an expert. We will certify you to teach and follow suit with training & curriculum videos year-round. Unique age-appropriate & style-appropriate teacher training is our specialty.
