Opening Dance Studio

Do you need to have a degree or certification to teach dance classes? I think I am a really good dancer, I have choreographed many dances for high school cheerleading competitions and college dance competitions. My dance routines have won awards at talent shows and are favored greatly by my friends and acquaintances that use them. I’d like to open a shop that does anything from teach wedding dance lessons to difficult acrobat performances. Must I get qualified to do so? Perhaps just CPR certified? Do I need to approach the town for a business license regarding the operation of such a place?
