Overview

The Dance Garden is a performance focused dance studio located in San Francisco’s Richmond District. Students are encouraged to learn a variety of Dance techniques as well as Choroegraphy, Theatre production skills and Sewing. Hip Hop is now an integral part of a student’s dance education and the Dance Garden is looking for an enthusiastic Teacher who can teach Hip Hop basics to beginners and challenging steps to intermediates. A mini demo concludes most classes for parents to see what their dancers have learned and to encourage stage presence in our youngest performers. Hip Hop Teacher applicant should be skilled in creating a mini choreo from the class elements taught that day in a fun, encouraging style and should be able to communicate the different styles of Hip Hop to interested students and parents. At the DG, we are focused on the whole child and encourage the study of dance because it has a positive affect on the develeopment of the the student no matter what career is pursued.
