Advanced Student Teacher Training
Many instructors make the mistake of burning out their students by teaching and training them at too advanced of a pace. Dias Dance Training can equip your instructors with the skills to manage a student's expectations, as well as their own, while guiding the student on a path to becoming the dancer they desire to be. Providing your instructors with the proper skill set will instill in them a level of comfort and confidence that will naturally be passed on to the students. By giving instructors knowledge of not only what to teach but how, when and why, both their and the student's expectations will be managed beautifully.
Dias Dance's hands on and interactive approach in training instructors will equip them in every aspect of the teacher/student relationship, allowing them to keep a 'pulse' on the student's feelings of success and/or frustration as well as teaching them how to 'pivot' and change the direction of the lesson on the spot when needed.

Administrative Staff Training
How your administrative staff handles each phone call, payment collection, cancellation, scheduled lesson, message delivery and any other mode of communication does greatly affect both potential and existing students in a positive or a negative way. In short, your administrative team has more influence in the overall experience than one might think.
Training your administrative staff with the knowledge and tools needed to handle every possible interaction will give them the confidence to do it beautifully and at the same time provide top notch service. Once they feel that their work can greatly contribute to the success of the studio, while helping to make the student’s experience great, they will feel empowered and a valuable part of your team. This will result in lower turn over, saving you time, money and frustration in the long run. Not only that, you will gain better studio results in student retention and participation simply because everyone in your studio takes such great care of them.
