ClassPass, the leading membership to the world’s largest fitness network, is introducing a pilot program to facilitate practical hours and studio placement for people who want to become professional instructors. At the end of our program, we’ll connect you to our studio partners looking to hire amazing teachers.

At ClassPass, we believe that a great workout has the power to make you feel like your best self. We also believe that for some people, feeling like your best self means getting in front of the class to teach and inspire others. We want to help you, a non-professional but passionate dancer looking to teach, to pursue your goals. We know it’s tough to become a great dance instructor and stand out from the crowd, so we’re going to help you practice and help connect you with our studio partners that are looking to hire great instructors. Our primary goal is to get you ready to work at a studio.
