How Much Does A Pole Dance Teacher Make?



If you're trying to find out how much does a pole dance teacher make, I hope this page will help you! But I need your help too!

At the bottom of this page, you can leave a comment letting others know how much you make as a teacher, or how much you pay as a business owner.

That way other visitors to this page will get an idea of the salary range they can expect to pay or be paid.

Please join the conversation!

On one end of the scale, assistant or apprentice teachers who are in training may be paid in experience only.

That is, if you're just starting out you may be offered an apprenticeship or an assistant position that doesn't have a salary attached to it.

Instead, you will be getting on-the-job training and experience as your payment.

Of course, this arrangement usually comes with the expectation that you'll be offered a paying job once your teaching competence has been established.

If you already have some teaching experience and credentials, you'll probably find that you can step into a paid teaching role more easily.


pole dance instructor
Of course, you'll need to have some basic pole dancing skills under your belt, as well as experience in teaching dance or fitness.

But if you love to teach and can establish your competence as an instructor, it should be relatively easy for you to transfer those skills to teaching pole dancing.

However, even for experienced instructors, pay rates do vary widely from city to city and from studio to studio.

And that's where you come in! Please join the conversation and leave a comment below telling us:

  • How much you currently make as a teacher, or how much you pay your instructors (hourly, per class or per party, monthly, etc).

  • What city, country or area you live in. If you don't want to specify, please tell us if you live in a rural or urban area, the approx size of your city, etc.

  • Any other details that will help people looking for pole dance instructor salary information.

    Thank you!

Pole Parties
by: Christine

I work for someone who does pole parties in people's homes. She pays me a flat rate of $100 per party. I'm not actually an employee though, so I don't get regular hours, benefits, vacation pay and other perks. I also pay my own mileage, unless it's far enough away that there's an extra travel charge, then I get that as well.

I think it's pretty good. The parties are about 2 hours, then I have to drive there and back, set up, clean up, so usually it's closer to 3 hours, sometimes 4 if it runs overtime or the house is a bit out of town. But it's still a really good hourly wage and I really like doing it.

Los Angeles, CA
by: Alannah

From what I know from talking to other pole dance teachers, $40-$50 an hour, if you're good and have training and certified. But every studio is different, or maybe it just depends on how good you are, like how many students you bring in.

I think once people start coming to the studio where you teach specifically because of you, you should make more. Like if they're telling their friends, 'you should take classes with so-and-so she's amazing!' then obviously you're worth more money.

Small Town Canada
by: Julie

New instructors in my small Canadian city typically start at $15 per hour if they don't have any teaching experience. Experienced and in-demand instructors can make up to $25-30 per hour, more in bonuses if they bring in a lot of students. Visiting instructors that are well-known usually get a percentage of class fees.
