In the spirit of Valentine’s Day, we thought it would be an appropriate time to share why we do what we do here at Dance to EvOLvE. Every dance teacher is different but we all have the same passion for dance, teaching, and our students.
This love of dance is what keeps us going each and every week, ready to start class with a smile. Ahead of Valentine’s Day, we reveal why we love to teach dance…
Reasons why we love being a dance teacher
Brittany: “My students’ genuine smiles and fun keep me going every class. Beyond that, I love teaching because I can see how dance contributes to a child’s development. Dance builds personal character and develops life skills that children will always use.”
Laura: “Teaching dance is something I have always been passionate about. I begged my first dance teacher to let me start teaching when I was 12 years old. I’m completely blessed to be doing what I love to do. There is nothing better than helping others find their passion for dance. They learn from me and I learn from them.”
Abby: “I love teaching dancers because my students are making just as much of a difference in my life as I am in theirs!”
Sara: “Why do I love teaching? That’s easy: I love watching the excitement, creativity, and confidence grow in a dancer every week. Seeing the passion for dance in young dancers is inspiring, and I love being able to nurture that.”
Tonya: “I love teaching dance classes because it’s the best feeling to see the kids having a smile on their face and the laughs…that’s what brings a smile to my face!”
Kristin: “Having the opportunity to share something that I love with my students and watch each and every one of them improve and grow into a beautiful young dancer is what fuels my motivation and passion for teaching dance.”
Jenny: “It’s when a dancer is excited to come to dance class, smiling, exclaims proudly out-loud when they have accomplished a new dance step, or reaches for my hand as we go across the floor… every day I’m reminded of how blessed I am to share what I love with my students!”
Christy: “I love seeing and hearing the silly wonderful things my girls say and do each week. More than that, I adore seeing how excited they are to come to class. They are always making me smile and are a constant reminder of why I have never stopped dancing.”
