Fresh New Small Business Ideas…..

If pictures say a thousand words, then foot movements certainly do bring in a thousand dollars. And teaching how to move them correctly; well, apart from the money, brings recognition, inspires awe and makes a person – if not the talk of the town – then certainly a cult figure within a closed community. But the story doesn’t end there; it’s just the gateway to a big, gyrating world.

Let us discuss the target group first. Who needs to dance? Apart from the ones in love, or the ones with a flurry in their heart, dance is something that can even cure certain physiological problems and elates mood. A psychosomatic form of exercise, dance is a collection of specific steps and body movements that need a lot of efforts to be put in. Grace, balance, skill and bodily manifestations of emotions all culminate to give rise to the elegance, which in turn gives rise to a dancer and later on, a dance instructor. Though dance schools are galore, a personal dance instructor cashes-in on the point that the schools cannot; it is personal attention.

There’s no need to say that you require an in-depth theoretical and practical knowledge in dancing if you want to teach someone the art; it applies not only to the traditional dance forms but to the modern ones as well. After setting up the space to hold your classes, invest upon equipments like a small upright piano (an electric piano would also do fine), pre-recorded music and a music system. Besides, you can also start a side activity for selling dresses and related paraphernalia. But it all depends upon the dance(s) that you are willing to teach; therefore, decide first whether it’s going to be Polka or Viennese Waltz or plain and simple Foxtrot that you shall be comfortable with.

Basic Requirements:

· A space to hold classes.
· Dancing equipments.
· Musical instruments.
· Dance Manuals.
· Dress-making set-up (optional)
· Proper advertising strategies.

Investment and Returns:

If you already have expertise in the subject, you won’t require any further training; else, it is going to cost you anything between $500 and $800. The instruments are going to cost around another $1000; if the set-up is a compliment to your own spectacular dance skills, then the banners and flyers placed at the local community hall, supermarkets and schools shall start paying off in no time and you shall be able to get back the entire amount within the first month of the commencement of the business.
