• Lead from the front by coaching 3–5 classes per week as needed.
• Recruit, hire, and train new coaches while ensuring program excellence.
• Maintain a clean, organized facility with a "roll up your sleeves" mentality.
  
  

Who We're Looking For

• 1–3 years of experience in management, sales, customer service, or operations.
• Background in children's programming, fitness, education, or athletics is a plus.
• Strong leadership, communication, and problem-solving skills.
• Ability to motivate, engage, and inspire staff and members.
• Must be available to work weekends—as a General Manager, you are the owner of your center.
