Considering Applying to be a Teacher, Guide, Practitioner or Shaman? Q and A
Where do you host classes?
SPARK Rochester shares space with Aerial Arts of Rochester. Jennifer (the owner) happens to own both allowing for the space to easily be shared and there is a lot of it! 13,000 square feet to be precise. We are located in the University Business Center, next to Hot Shots Volleyball at 1046 University Avenue, Rochester NY 14607.
We have several spaces including a lobby with lots of natural light, a few classrooms, a private office and more. Classes can range from 4 - 40. Hosting retreats and lectures can host quite a few more. We have a total capacity of 200 at max.
What is your Business Structure?
So glad you asked! I've put a lot of thought into this.... long term goal is to try out a membership based structure with credits that can be combined towards different types of classes that are different price points. For the time being, we will offer classes a la carte.

Your Suggestion Here!
What are your teaching requirements?
You do not need to have prior experience teaching these styles classes, what you do need is a lesson plan or presentation. You also need to be willing to teach small classes. As a new company, it will take time for us to build up clientele. We would want you to commit to teaching your class at least once a month and try it consistently for 6 months. You are welcome to apply to teach multiple topics as long as they are in alignment with our mission.
What is your pay structure?
You would be considered an employee, paid on a monthly basis and have direct deposit. Being that we are new company, we will offer teachers a flat, guaranteed rate with bonus possibilities based on participation. These rates are based on the type of class you would be instructing and the price point that class is being offered. Rates are between $18-$22 per hour. Possibility for bonuses.
What other opportunities would you have for me?
If you have services in which you want to offer regularly, such as Reiki, Tarot Reading, Acupuncture, Nutritional Consultations, etc. we have room in which you can use. Teachers will have access to our booking software and they can book the office when needed. We are in the process of setting up this office, which is located in our lobby. It will have seating, a massage table, etc.
We will also be able to book private group classes or parties. For example, if someone wants to hold an event for their birthday making terrariums, we can do it! So there are opportunities for you host these private classes and events at our facility.
