Who can be an instructor?​

The answer is short, anyone who genuinely wants to, no previous experience is necessary as our course will teach you everything you need to know to get up and running as a beginner instructor and then the rest comes from experience and practice or you can join our further training courses.

​

I live outside the UK, can I still do your course and or license with you / teach your routines?​

The answer is short, yes.

Our courses and routines are currently delivered in English so as long as that wouldn't present a problem for you, then your location is definitely not an issue for us. With the technology options available to us, connecting with people across the world is even easier.

​

Will I have Exams to do after my training ?​

1. Yes, after you have completed the practical part of the course, you will have to record yourself teaching a full 60-90 minute class and send us your video submission for marking.

2. After completing your theory training you will complete an online questionnaire to demonstrate you have understood the concepts of the Health & Safety and basic foundations of being an instructor.

3. Once you have completed both the practical & theory training, we then send you your certificate.

4. You then have 2 options after your training (see below).

5. During your training you will be fully supported by your appointed trainer so even if you opt for the distant learning course you will not be left to struggle alone.

​

What are my options after training ?​

1. Go and set up independently - Whilst you are still welcome to reach out to us for collaboration work, routines, paid business coaching, class coaching and ongoing burlesque training development you will not have permission to use or teach ANY of our routines, courses or workshops without one of our License options.

2. License with us - This opportunity offers a range of plans, support & flexibility. You can remain an independent instructor with no ties to us and still teach our routines, our workshops and our courses to your customers.

​​​​

How long does the training course take?​

Well that depends on you and how keen you are to get up and running.

We have had people complete the whole course in 6 weeks (with previous experience) before but generally most people take 2-5 months.

​

Is there a deadline for completing the training course.?​

Yes maximum of 12 months. We ask that you try to complete the course within 6 months of signing up because in todays society things are constantly changing and if you drag the training course out over 6+ months the course could change which means you could have to go back and re-do certain modules again depending on the changes. We would of course monitor this and we do send out checking in emails so if changes are approaching we try to warn you where we can. 

​

I've already done a course elsewhere - do I need to still do yours to teach your routines ?

If you have previously done a course elsewhere or you do not believe you need any further training then you can still license with us and use our content yes. Simply head to the instructor area to find out more.​

​

Will I get a certificate for completing the course?​

Yes absolutely, as long as you complete the full course

 

What's the cost of the course?​

The distance learning course is just £149.00* 

Our Private 1-2-1 training course is £349.00*

*All prices are subject to change - UK based customers can also opt to upgrade to an in person assessment.​

To find out full details and to find out what's included click the full details of the packages below, both courses offer immediate access as soon as you have registered and paid.

​​

So what's the difference between the 2 courses (apart from the price of course)?

We find the main need for the private 1-2-1 course is for those with absolutely no teaching experience and either none or very little Burlesque or dance experience. Therefore they benefit from those extra 1-2-1 hours training to really appreciate the key concepts of being an instructor and just how much health and safety is involved. All 1-2-1 sessions are carried out online via zoom.

We find those with previous experience in either dance, fitness or burlesque either from an instructor point of view or dancers point of view find our distant learning course is more than sufficient enough because the course is enhancing and fine tuning what you probably already know.

​

So in a nutshell - You do not need any previous Burlesque or Dance qualifications to complete our course as we will teach you everything from scratch BUT with the online distant learning course it really does help if you have attended some sort of Dance Fitness as a customer before to make the online learning easier. If you have little or NO experience we would recommend our private 1-2-1 training course.

​​​

Cancellations & Refunds?​​

Should for any reason you change your mind about becoming an instructor you will not be entitled to a refund as your access to our course is immediate. 

You may be able to defer your training to a later date but this will need to be discussed with head office and a small admin fee may be applicable if accepted.

​​​

Is there anything else to pay our for?​

Not for us no, but once qualified you will need to obtain insurance, first aid etc which is the responsibility of each individual instructor but this is all covered as part of the learning course.​
