How do I get a job as cruise ship dance instructor?

Question

My partner and I are amateur ballroom dancers with knowlege of country, club, and other dances. We would like to know how to obtain information on getting a job on a cruise ship as dance instructors, for a short to moderate time. We have experience teaching and are a fun, young couple. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

Answer 1

Go to the websites of the various cruise lines and look for the spot to click for employment or job info for that company.  See below for the site for Carnival Cruise Lines and Royal Caribbean.

Answer 2

I have been on a few cruises where the dance instructors have been part of the entertainment team.

On a NCL cruise one couple were ballroom dancers who gave exhibition dances during the evening shows and gave lessons in one of the lounges during the afternoon.

The best way is to contact the cruise lines directly or try the links below which are for gentlemen dance hosts but may point you in the right direction.
