Description
About the Role
We are seeking a passionate, inspiring Middle School Dance Instructor to guide our 6th–8th grade students through the creative, vibrant world of dance. In this role, you will introduce students to foundational dance techniques while fostering self-expression, confidence, and artistic growth.
Beyond technical instruction, we are looking for a mentor—someone who leads by example and is grounded in their faith. You will have the unique opportunity to serve as a Christian role model, helping students build confidence and encouraging them as they establish their personal foundation in Christ.
Key Responsibilities
- Instruction & Curriculum: Teach the fundamentals of dance across multiple styles, including Hip Hop, Modern, Jazz, and Lyrical , tailored specifically for middle school skill levels (6th–8th grade).
- Creative Expression: Design engaging, age-appropriate lesson plans and choreography that foster creativity, movement appreciation, and teamwork.
- Faith & Mentorship: Serve as a positive Christian role model, integrating encouragement, spiritual values, and mentorship into the classroom environment.
- Classroom Management: Maintain a supportive, safe, and structured classroom culture where students feel comfortable taking creative risks.
- Performances: Prepare students for end-of-term showcases, school events, or ministry-focused performances as needed.
Requirements
- Dance Background: Strong technical foundation and teaching experience in Hip Hop, Modern, Jazz, and Lyrical styles.
- Passion for Youth: Demonstrated ability to connect with, engage, and inspire middle school students (ages 11–14).
- Faith Alignment: A strong, active personal faith in Jesus Christ, with a desire to shepherd young hearts and help students grow in their spiritual walk.
- Communication: Excellent interpersonal skills to communicate effectively with students, parents, and school leadership.
- Experience: Prior instructional or studio teaching experience with youth is preferred.
