Dance Teacher Handbook Template

Providing your staff with a detailed dance teacher handbook can help create the studio culture you want: a happy team, a consistent experience for students, satisfied parents, and fewer issues to deal with throughout the year. The Holistic Guide to Creating a Dance Teacher Handbook will help you clarify every aspect of employment at your studio or program, and get staff on the same page about expectations and policies for students and families. This newly revised, professionally edited resource includes 2 parts: an 18-page comprehensive PDF guide to help you determine what to include, and a 44-page, fully customizable Canva template that you can edit with your studio information, colors, and logo.

The comprehensive PDF guide provides a reference for creating your own handbook for your dance teachers and staff, including the following information:

• Your history, mission, and values
• Studio rules and regulations
• Faculty expectations
• Payroll and other benefits
• Programs and events
• Emergency procedures
• And much more!

The easy-to-use Canva template allows you to plug in your studio or program's unique information, colors, and logo to create your own customized dance teacher handbook with ease. The template includes 5 bonus forms that will help make staff management even easier:

• Accident or other incident reports 
• Time off request forms 
• Schedule request or availability change forms  
• Change of address or contact information forms 
• Emergency contact forms 

You can download your customized version from Canva to print or email to your staff, and make this the easiest, most organized year yet for communicating with your staff!
