Along with teaching classes, zumba instructors who are part of the
zumba instructor network (there is a membership fee for this) can buy
zumba clothing wholesale to resell to their students and to the general
public. This is another way a zumba instructor can generate some
extra income.

Some zumba instructors open their own fitness studios. In a
high-traffic location, a studio that offers several different types of
fitness or dance classes along with zumba may be profitable.

Zumba instructors are known for giving back and often do fundraisers
for good causes such as raising money for breast cancer charities. As
you can see being a zumba instructor can be a profitable, fulfilling and
an exciting job opportunity.  If you love teaching zumba you will make
money at it.

How much money can I make teaching zumba?
The salary you make will depend on the facility you teach at, the payment terms and your
location. Here are some common salaries of zumba instructors:
  • health clubs pay from $15 to $25 per hour. Pay rates vary from region to region but
    this is about the average
  • community centers and recreation centers may pay on a percentage, for example
    you get 70% and the center gets 30% of the fees collected
  • corporate classes are usually private classes taught on site for the employees of a
    company. Pay can either be a flat fee from $50 to $100 or $5 to $10 per person paid
    to the instructor
  • private parties can earn you a flat fee of $100-$150 for an hour of your time.
When calculating how much money you are making for teaching a zumba class you may want to consider your
expenses. Take into account the cost of gas, mileage, music, ipods, equipment, clothing,
zumba shoes,
certification fees, etc. Of course many of these things are also tax-deductible if you are teaching as an
independent contractor.

You also want to take into account your physical expenditure. In other words, you may not be able to physically
teach more than 2 classes per day or even more than 4 classes per week. Zumba can be taxing on your body and
you need to avoid getting burned out. Teaching
Zumba Gold, which is a more gentle zumba, may be a way to
teach more zumba without straining your body so much.
