Join Our Huddersfield Team

There is always something on across Huddersfield and Kirklees — regular weekly classes, Saturday hen parties, first-dance choreography for couples and workshops inside schools, every one of them after trained dancers who can teach as well as move.

Paid Properly

Weekly teaching pays from £22 an hour, with hen and wedding choreography from £25 — the figure is agreed before you begin, lands on time, and never leaves you chasing an invoice.

Around Your Career

You set the hours and we fill them. Most Huddersfield teachers put in somewhere between two and ten hours a week around auditions, contracts and tours — and press pause the moment other work lands.

Room to Build

Build up your own weekly classes with our marketing pushing behind you, take casting chances off our events roster, and shift between roles as your range grows.

Positions Available

Three types of role — pick one or take on all three. Teachers who cover several styles get first dibs on the Huddersfield timetable.

Hen Party Instructor

From £25/hr

You lead hen groups through their themed routine, either in a town-centre studio or wherever they are based for the weekend — the liveliest and best-paid Saturday work we hand out.

  • 38+ themes, choreography provided
  • 1–1.5 hour sessions
  • Studios & come-to-you across Kirklees
  • Weekend availability essential

Wedding Dance Choreographer

From £25/hr

You take couples through their first dance one-to-one and in private — a calm, patient hand teaches far more here than any glittering CV.

  • 1-hour private lessons
  • Your schedule, their song
  • Song editing support provided
  • Beginner-teaching experience essential

Regular Class Teacher

From £22/hr

Take a weekly slot in whatever style is yours, grow a regular crowd and build it into something bigger — while our marketing does the work of getting bodies through the door.

  • 20 styles on the timetable
  • Evening & weekend slots
  • Adults & children's classes
  • Marketing support included

Dance Jobs Huddersfield FAQ

Common questions from instructors weighing up whether to join the Huddersfield team.

Is a formal teaching qualification needed to take on dance jobs in Huddersfield?

Handy, but never essential. What lands the job is solid training or performance experience plus the knack of holding a room. A good few of our best instructors picked up teaching through dancing, not the reverse.

What do dance instructors actually earn in Huddersfield?

Regular classes open at £22 an hour, while hen party and wedding choreography work opens at £25 an hour. Rates are pinned down before each booking, paid promptly, and looked at again as you take on more.

What dance styles are you currently hiring for in Huddersfield?

All twenty of the styles we timetable — ballet and ballroom right through to street, K-pop and heels — and hen party instructors and wedding choreographers on top. The teachers who happily cover several styles are the ones whose weeks book out the quickest.

Is this full-time work or freelance?

Flexible freelance, shaped around when you are free. Some teachers run a single weekly class; others pile classes, weekend hen parties and school workshops into almost-full weeks. None of it is use-it-or-lose-it.

I still perform and audition — can teaching slot around that?

That is precisely who we take on. Most of our Huddersfield team are working performers who teach between contracts. Give us your pattern of availability and we build around it — then put it on hold the moment you land a tour.
