Position Description:

We are looking for a personal trainer/ strength coach to coach small group personal training sessions helping our members change their lives through strength. You would be predominately helping those clients between the ages of 40 and 70 get strong, lose fat, and lead a healthier lifestyle with your influence and guidance.

We have part time and full time positions available.

Who is this NOT perfect for?

If you are someone who wants to work on your own, are more into your own fitness journey than your clients, are not a team player or can’t have a ton of fun while training clients this is not the place for you.

If you are a “rah-rah” type coach this may not be the place for you either. We focus on detailed coaching in a small group or one-on-one environment and that requires a keen eye and being more than just a cheerleader.

Position Benefits:

• You'll be in a fun environment with a competitive wage and a consistent schedule.
• Team members will be given a clear path to advancement.
• Health Insurance (100% covered) and Dental Benefits
• Continuing Education Reimbursement: up to $2000 per year
