Children's Dance, Fitness & Movement Instructor | School Hours (Contractor)

n

Children's Dance, Fitness & Movement Instructor (Contractor)

n

Tue–Fri | School Hours | Forest Lake & Western Brisbane / Ipswich Corridor

n

Imagine getting paid to sing, dance, tell stories, perform magic and inspire young children through movement every day.

n

Happy Feet Fitness is looking for an enthusiastic, energetic and business-minded person to join our Queensland team as an independent contractor, delivering our award-winning, play-based movement program to babies, toddlers and preschoolers in early childhood education and care centres.

n

You'll help children build confidence, coordination and a lifelong love of movement while creating a rewarding and flexible career around your lifestyle.

n

What You'll Be Doing

n

Every day is different! You'll visit early childhood centres during school hours to deliver fun, high-energy 30-minute classes using:

n

n
- Music, movement and dance
n
- Magic, puppets and exciting props
n
- Imaginative storytelling and adventures
n
- Games, fitness and fundamental movement skills
n
- Play-based learning that supports children's development
n

n

One class might involve exploring outer space, while the next takes children on a dinosaur adventure or an under-the-sea expedition. If you enjoy performing, using your imagination and making children laugh, you'll love this role.

n

About the Chance

n

This is an exciting business opportunity in the Forest Lake & Western Brisbane / Ipswich Corridor, with the advantage of taking over a well-established schedule of existing classes from an experienced Happy Feet Instructor.

n





You'll work closely with our experienced State Manager to develop relationships with early childhood centres and grow towards a regular schedule of 20+ weekly classes across 4–5 weekdays during school hours.

n

Business development and relationship building is a core part of the role, so please be aware that this is not simply a teaching position. You'll be building your own business and actively contributing to its growth, with support from your manager and the Happy Feet team.

n

Availability

n

To take over the existing classes and make the most of the current growth opportunities, you'll need to be available Tuesday to Friday during school hours.

n

All classes are delivered during school hours, with no evenings or weekends required.

n

Income

n

As an independent contractor, you'll operate your own Happy Feet Fitness business under license.

n

n
- Earn between $70 and $200 per 30-minute class delivered (after licensing fees)
n
- Grow your income as your regular timetable grows
n
- Receive full training, mentoring and ongoing support
n

n

As with any contractor opportunity, your income has the potential to grow as you establish and deliver more regular classes.

n

This Role Could Be Perfect If You...

n

n
- Have a current Blue Card (essential)
n
- Love working with babies, toddlers and preschool-aged children
n
- Have an energetic, confident and engaging personality
n
- Enjoy performing, teaching or presenting to groups of children
n
- Enjoy meeting new people and building strong relationships
n
- Are organised, reliable and self-motivated
n




- Have a business mindset and enjoy creating opportunities
n
- Are excited by the opportunity to build and grow your own business
n

n

Why Happy Feet?

n

For almost 20 years, Happy Feet Fitness has been bringing movement, music and smiles to children across Australia.

n

When you join Happy Feet, you're in business for yourself – but never by yourself. We'll provide comprehensive training, proven class programs, ongoing mentoring and the support you need to confidently build your own successful school-hours business.

n

You'll also have the support of an experienced local manager who will work with you to identify growth opportunities, connect with centres and develop your timetable.

n

If you're looking for a rewarding opportunity that combines performance, education, movement and entrepreneurship, we'd love to hear from you.

n

Not Looking to Run Your Own Business?

n

We're also looking for Cover Instructors in the same region!

n

If the idea of building and running your own Happy Feet Fitness business isn't quite what you're looking for, you may be interested in joining us as a Cover Instructor.

n

Cover Instructors work on a casual, ad-hoc basis, stepping in to deliver Happy Feet classes when our regular Instructors are unavailable due to illness, holidays or other leave.

n

It's a great option if you're looking for flexible school-hours work without the commitment of building your own regular timetable or business.

n

Cover Instructors receive training and all the resources they need to deliver our classes, and you can accept cover opportunities based on your own availability.

n

Interested in either opportunity? Simply indicate in your application whether you're interested in the Instructor business opportunity, Cover Instructor work, or both.
