Okay, at dance the other day, my teacher said that when I was sixteen I could start working there as a teacher to make cash instead of working at like Burger King or somthing. But isnt it true that if I started teaching, even if I was only 16, I'd have to compete professionally once I found a partner. Because I want to compete, but at age 16 I'd probably want to as an amatuer. I was just wondering, cause I'm pretty curious.

If you are in the USA and you start teaching, then you will officially be ineligible to dance in amateur events. You would have to find a professional partner, and could only compete in Pro/Am events (as the Pro, dancing with one of your students) or Professional events.

There's a way around this -- find an amateur partner first and get good enough to qualify for "world competitor" status in the NDCA or "elite" status" in USABDA. That way you'll be allowed to teach without officially losing your amateur status.

I think teachers should strip while teachoing dancing you idiot!!!!!!!!!
