Join Our Stoke-on-Trent Team

Our Stoke-on-Trent diary is filling out fast — weekly classes, Saturday hen dos, wedding first-dance work and school workshops, all of them needing trained dancers who can teach and command a room.

Paid Properly

Weekly classes pay from £22 an hour, with hen dos and wedding choreography at £25 — the figure is fixed before you start, it lands on time, and there is no chasing anyone for it.

Around Your Career

Tell us when you are free and we build the work around it. Plenty of our Stoke teachers put in anywhere from two to ten hours a week, squeezed between auditions, contracts and touring — then wind it down the moment a big booking lands.

Room to Build

Build up a weekly class of your own with our marketing packing it out, take paid performance calls from the events we stage, and shift between the different roles as you grow.

Positions Available

Three kinds of role — do one or juggle all three. Teach a range of styles and you land first pick of the slots on the Stoke-on-Trent timetable.

Hen Party Instructor

From £25/hr

Lead hen groups through a themed routine, whether at a Hanley studio or wherever they are staying for the weekend — the liveliest and best-paid work we hand out.

  • Studios & come-to-you across the Potteries
  • Weekend availability essential

Wedding Dance Choreographer

From £25/hr

Create first-dance routines with couples in private, one-to-one sessions — a calm, patient manner counts for far more than a glittering CV here.

  • Song editing support provided
  • Beginner-teaching experience essential

Regular Class Teacher

From £22/hr

Run a weekly class in your own style, gather a regular following and build out from there — we take care of filling the room, through our marketing.

  • Adults & children's classes
  • Marketing support included

Dance Jobs Stoke-on-Trent FAQ

The things dancers usually ask before coming on board to teach with us in Stoke-on-Trent.

Must I hold a teaching qualification to take on dance jobs in Stoke-on-Trent?

Helpful, but not a requirement. What really wins the role is genuine training or performance experience together with the knack of holding a room. A fair few of our strongest teachers came to teaching straight from the stage, rather than the other way round.

What kind of pay can dance instructors expect in Stoke-on-Trent?

Weekly classes begin at £22 an hour, while hen and wedding choreography starts at £25. The rate is confirmed before each booking, paid without delay, and lifted as you take on more hours.

Which styles are you actually recruiting teachers for in Stoke-on-Trent?

Every one of the twenty styles we run — ballet and ballroom, street, K-pop, heels and the rest — along with hen party leaders and wedding choreographers. The Stoke diary rarely lets up, so anyone who covers several styles fills their week soonest.

Are these employed posts or freelance work?

All freelance, and shaped around when you can work. One teacher might keep to a single weekly class; another packs classes, Saturday hen dos and school workshops into an almost-full week. None of it is use-it-or-lose-it.

I am still performing and auditioning — can teaching slot in around it?

Honestly, that is the ideal candidate. Most of our Stoke teachers are performers who fit classes in between contracts. Show us the shape of your typical week and we will slot the teaching around it — then park it whenever a tour or contract comes up.
