SMART Lesson Plans give you a done-for-you, 10-month curriculum in one easy-access, clickable resource. Open the file, click the instructional video, and teach—no stress, no second-guessing. Each month follows the natural flow of class (warm-up, skills, progressions, conditioning, choreo, cool-down, etc.), and you can tweak it to fit your style.

Available for 8 genres, these 350+ SMART Progressive Lesson Plans for Dance Teachers work across jazz, hip hop, acro, tap, ballet, technique, preschool, fusion (flexibility & conditioning), and more. They’re a lifesaver for subs or newer teachers who need a clear guide. Lessons feature a mix of guided teacher tutorials and real class footage, giving you practical examples of how to teach.

You don’t have to wait for the perfect timing to get started. While the best flow is to begin at the start of the season, you can jump in anytime. If you’re finding DTCE later in the year, we highly recommend beginning with Month 1—that way, your dancers build the foundation in order, and nothing important gets skipped.

Built to be progressive, it develops alongside your dancers, supports your studio’s growth, and provides lasting value year after year.

Note: Some SMART Lesson Plans include music tracks or Spotify playlists; others do not.
