Job description

En Pointe School of Ballet is now hiring one to two instructors to join our ballet school. We are located in an elegant studio in Jordan Landing in West Jordan, Utah. We are in looking for a pre-ballet teacher for Wednesdays at 1:30 PM and Saturdays 10am-1pm. We are also looking for substitutes for all levels.

Our curriculum is based on the Cecchetti method. Other methods are welcome if you are willing to adapt to also include this one and teach the differences between methods. We are a non competitive studio and our students perform in a full length classical ballet annually the first weekend in June. We will be performing in Swan Lake in June 2025 And the Nutcracker in December.

Our Ballet program is year round, and our new season begins in July after a 3 week break in June after our June performances. This is a W-2 Employee position, not a 1099 contractor. Part time fixed weekly schedule with additional hours possible through substituting.

Instructors must be fun, encouraging, nurturing, and have knowledge of ballet terminology, methodology, and be capable of creating lesson plans and choreography.

Do not apply if you have not been trained in classical ballet or are not comfortable teaching children since this is what I am currently hiring for. Please submit a headshot, dance photo, and a resume to [e-mail]
