Flamenco private lessons and workshops

Individual students wanting focused coaching, wedding and party groups, community organizations, schools and cultural festivals, and online students in smaller towns.

Hourly rate for private lessons, a flat fee per workshop or group event, and subscriptions or packs for online lessons.

• Strong flamenco technique and ability to teach one-to-one
• Adapting lessons to different ages and levels
• Comfort with video calls and simple filming
• Networking with cultural and community groups

• Commercial general liability insurance, especially when teaching at venues or clients' homes
• Check whether your municipality needs a home-based business licence if students come to your home
• Teaching minors: check whether venues or schools need a police record check (vulnerable sector check)
• Check music licensing rules for recorded music used in paid sessions or events
• Winter weather and travel time can affect in-person lessons, so keep an online option ready

Estimates suggest startup costs are typically around $200 to $1,500, depending on your setup, such as travel, any space you borrow and the basic gear you want for online lessons. Treat this as a rough range and price your own plan.

Estimates put monthly revenue typically around $300 to $2,000, depending on how many private students, workshops and online lessons you take on. The idea can start at about 4 hours a week, so it suits part-time work.

Things to check: commercial general liability insurance, especially at venues or clients' homes; whether your municipality needs a home-based business licence; whether a police record check (vulnerable sector) is needed for minors; and music licensing rules for recorded music in paid sessions.
