First of all, it is very necessary to reserve knowledge.
Because you are about to engage in dance education work, even if you have only paid to learn to dance before, you must have a comprehensive understanding of dance and have certain dance teaching experience. Whether it is a small training class run by a boss who is also a teacher, or a large training class with a higher starting point that recruits a large number of professional dance teachers just after opening, having rich teaching experience has direct influence on making correct decisions in the teaching and management process. effect.
Secondly, we must position the dance training class well.
There may be many things you want to do, but there are only one or two things you can do well. The types, levels and business scope of dance training classes vary widely. What a dance training class will be like, you need to have a clear idea and stick to this idea.
For example, if you want to teach professional dance, you want more children to be admitted to dance academies or join dance performance troupes and embark on the path of professional dance performance through studying here. Then we should first clarify this idea, and then insist on focusing on children's dance enlightenment, grade examination and further education, and carry out teaching activities around the purpose of cultivating dance talents.
Of course, dance training classes can also be only for adults, providing them with various dance teachings, so that they can release physical and mental stress through dance and achieve fitness and plastic surgery after their busy work. If the effect of dance is on body shape and pleasant mood, then your teaching focus should be on dance fitness, weight loss, body shaping, dance communication, making friends, etc. This positioning is very important and should be treated with caution, because it is not only the main business, but also the brand of dance training classes.
Third, starting a business does not require certainty, but it also requires a certain amount of preparation for a rainy day.
There are certain risks in any business, so don’t be afraid of it, and don’t have the idea of ??“waiting until I have everything ready before I start”. When you are 70% sure, , you can start. Of course, this is based on adequate preparation. The so-called preparations include the selection and leasing of dance training class venues, the selection of publicity methods, the design and distribution of advertisements, the availability of funds and manpower, the acquisition of hardware facilities, and the creation and establishment of various systems, etc. A systematic planning is required. Some aspects should also be considered in the long term. For example, the size of the dance classroom should be considered to be suitable for the expansion of enrollment under normal development conditions at least within three to five years; the teaching staff should be deployed in stages, and excellent teachers should be cultivated in actual work, etc.
Fourth, you must have a certain sense of crisis and the ability to resist risks.
When starting a dance training class and starting a business, everything will be determined by the market. In the process of daily operations, one must have a sense of crisis. The sense of crisis here can be as small as paying attention to preventing students from being injured due to dance training, as large as various fire-fighting equipment to deal with fires, as well as various fire-fighting equipment used by competitors in fierce competition. Kind of tricks.
General plan:
1. Focus on teaching quality. Dance training classes are engaged in education. No matter what your idea is for opening a dance training class, it should be based on ensuring the quality of teaching.
Good teaching quality will not only bring you a steady stream of students, but reputation and credibility are also necessary for long-term development. So how to improve the quality of teaching? The most important thing is of course teachers. Those with sufficient funds can hire some dance teachers with rich teaching experience and strong sense of responsibility to teach. Those with insufficient funds must be self-reliant. This requires long-term experience before starting a class. Dance teaching experience, accumulated rich knowledge and experience. Second is management. Excellent teachers can play their greatest role under scientific management. Whether it is a small dance class that has just been opened with only one or two teachers, or a large dance class with multiple branches, scientific management is necessary. . In addition, the hardware facilities must also keep up, which can be gradually improved according to the types of dance classes and teaching methods.
2. When an individual starts a dance training class to start a business, he cannot be blindly optimistic and must have a full understanding of the market situation. If possible, it is best to conduct a detailed market survey. Complete survey data will be of great help to entrepreneurs in their decision-making. For those of you who have not yet graduated, funds are tight, so you must make the most of every penny. You should be careful in choosing venues, purchasing hardware facilities, and choosing publicity methods.
It is good to have a front-end house in a downtown area, but once business difficulties arise, the pressure of expensive rent may cause the entire dance class to be unable to sustain itself.
The failure of the first entrepreneurial venture will have a long-lasting shadow on the entrepreneur's psychology, which will have a great impact on the subsequent life. We should adhere to the principle of being cautious in the first battle and winning the first battle, giving up the idea of ??eating a fat man in one bite, and be prepared to fight a protracted war. You can choose to start with a cheap facade room at the entrance of the community, conduct a small-scale operation, focus on improving the quality of teaching, accumulate experience, lessons, funds, and reputation in the operation process, and then consider expanding the scale when conditions are mature.
3. Starting a business is far harder than imagined, especially in the early stages of starting a business. It is definitely a comprehensive test for the entrepreneur’s body, energy, experience and knowledge. You should be more hands-on, fully experience various entrepreneurial experiences, and understand the various processes of the dance training class operation. This will help the business and development of the dance training class, and is also the knowledge base for making various decisions after it grows.
4. Make full use of various channels for publicity, such as leaflets, QQ groups, QQ spaces, website forums, blogs, etc. Although these low-cost advertisements are difficult to implement, they are indeed effective. .
5. Organize various activities, such as participating in various dance competitions in the name of a dance training class. It is better to win awards. Failure to win is also a demonstration of the brand of the dance training class. You can also organize some free teaching experience activities, or participate in some charity performances of literary and artistic activities. Don't worry about wasting energy in vain, these efforts will be rewarded.
6. To create your own characteristics, the characteristic is the brand. For example, when it comes to training programs, you need to have a forward-looking vision, be able to fully estimate the popular trends in dance, make preparations in advance, and launch training programs for various popular dances.
7. After you become famous, you can start a "side business", selling ballroom dancing clothes, shoes, etc.
