Job Summary
Job Description
Fee: £1,500
Hours: 2-3 in-person sessions per week (approx. 5-7 hours weekly) + preparation and guidance for self-practice. Total ~6-9 hours weekly across 3 months.

Contract: Freelance, 3 months (with flexibility on start date)
The work will involve daily training, some days 1:1 with you, some days self-directed with your guidance, as I learn ballroom and Latin dances in the spirit of Strictly Come Dancing. Each week will culminate in a small performance between us, accompanied by reflection on the dynamics of learning, partnering, and the relationship that forms through dance.
This is both a training role and an artistic collaboration. I am looking for someone who can bring technical skill, teaching ability, and a willingness to explore the relational/creative dimensions of dance.
