Students in my class asked me to get 'ABC' teacher into the room because they wanted to see the dance. That means that there is a guy at my school who does this sort of thing.

Forget all the claptrap about degrees, experience and language ability: as the video, as well as some of the comments here, shows, a good sense of rhythm and attractive singing voice is enough to not only get you employed but perhaps even adopted by your city of choice.
