Dance Jobs Cambridge FAQ
What instructors ask before joining the Cambridge roster.
Do I need a teaching qualification to apply for dance jobs in Cambridge?
Helpful, never mandatory — professional training or real performance experience plus the ability to hold a room is what actually gets hired. Some of the network's best teachers own no certificate at all.
How much do dance instructors get paid in Cambridge?
Weekly classes start at £22 an hour; hen and wedding commissions at £25. Every rate is fixed in advance and paid promptly after the work — no invoice-chasing culture survives here.
Which dance styles are you hiring for in Cambridge?
All twenty timetable styles plus hen instructors and wedding choreographers — with ballet, salsa and K-pop specialists especially welcome as those intakes lead the city's demand.
Is the work full-time or freelance?
Freelance throughout, shaped to your declared hours — one weekly class or a stacked diary of classes and weekend bookings, rescaled whenever your circumstances change.
I perform, tour or research — can teaching fit around that?
You're describing our standard hire — working performers and portfolio professionals who teach between commitments. State your pattern and the diary is built around it, tours and term-times included.
