AQUA FITNESS INSTRUCTOR

Live 2 B Healthy – Senior Fitness | Indianapolis, IN

Job Title Aqua Fitness Instructor

Location Indianapolis and surrounding areas (on-site at senior living communities and community

centers with pools)

Reports To Franchise Owner / Fitness Program Manager

Company Live 2 B Healthy – Indianapolis

Employment Type Independent Contractor (1099)

WHY THIS WORK MATTERS

At Live 2 B Healthy – Indianapolis, we believe that growing older should never mean giving up

strength, confidence, or independence. The water is one of the most powerful tools we have: its

buoyancy supports the joints, eases pain, and gives older adults the freedom to move in ways

that can feel difficult on land. Every class you lead helps a senior move more freely, build

strength, and stay connected to the people and activities they love.

OUR MISSION

To deliver exceptional senior fitness and aquatic exercise programming that improves the

health, confidence, and independence of older adults in our community — while building a

supportive workplace where our instructors are developed, valued, and empowered to

achieve their own goals.

Position Summary

Aqua Fitness Instructors bring the Live 2 B Healthy program to the water, delivering safe,

effective, and engaging group aquatic fitness classes for older adults in senior living

communities and community centers with pools. Instructors also provide individualized attention

through private one-on-one and small group water-based sessions. This role requires a passion

for helping seniors stay active, with a strong commitment to program quality, safety, and

participant progress.

Key Responsibilities

• Lead Group Aqua Fitness Classes. Conduct scheduled on-site water fitness classes
  
  

tailored to the needs and abilities of older adults, using the buoyancy and gentle resistance

of water to support low-impact cardiovascular conditioning, strength, flexibility, and range of

motion.

• Private & Small Group Aquatic Training. Deliver personalized one-on-one and small
  
  

group water-based sessions with residents based on their individual goals and abilities,

following approved programming and documentation protocols.

• Ensure Safety In and Around the Pool. Monitor participants closely to ensure exercises
  
  

are performed safely and effectively in the water. Maintain awareness of pool conditions,

safe entry and exit, and emergency procedures, and modify activities as needed to support

all fitness and comfort levels.

• Build Positive Relationships. Create a motivating, respectful, and inclusive environment.
  
  

Establish trust and rapport with residents, staff, and community decision-makers.

• Follow Program Guidelines. Adhere to all Live 2 B Healthy protocols and curriculum
  
  

standards, as well as facility pool rules, for all formats of training (group, small group, and

private).

• Communication & Reporting. Accurately report attendance, session feedback, and client
  
  

notes to the Fitness Program Manager. Communicate class concerns, pool issues, or

scheduling changes in a timely manner.

Qualifications

• Experience in senior fitness, aqua fitness, group fitness, or rehab-based exercise
• Current nationally recognized fitness certification (REQUIRED: NASM, ACE, ACSM, AFAA, or equivalent)
• Current CPR/AED certification (REQUIRED)
• Comfortable leading exercise in and around the water, with a working awareness of pool
  
  

safety and emergency procedures

• Strong interpersonal skills and an encouraging, client-centered approach
• Reliable transportation and punctuality for scheduled sessions
  
  

Preferred Qualifications

• Aquatic fitness certification (e.g., AEA Aquatic Fitness Professional) or an equivalent water based exercise credential
• Previous experience teaching aqua aerobics, water-based exercise, or aquatic therapy
• Background in working with seniors or within senior living communities
• Understanding of age-related conditions and how to safely modify exercises for the water
  
  

THE INSTRUCTOR WE’RE LOOKING FOR

Certifications and experience matter — and so does character. Beyond the qualifications above,

we are looking for someone whose values match the way we want to serve our community. You

May Be a Great Fit If You

• Feel genuine joy when a participant accomplishes something they didn’t think they could
• Bring patience, warmth, and authentic respect to every interaction with older adults
• Bring energy and encouragement that make the pool a welcoming, motivating place to be
• Are dependable and professional — people can count on you to arrive prepared, positive,
  
  

and on time

• Communicate openly and honestly, and naturally build trust with residents, families, and
  
  

community staff

• See coaching and feedback as opportunities to grow, and take pride in continually improving
  
  

your craft

• Want to be part of something bigger than a single class — a mission to change how our
  
  

community ages

OUR CULTURE & VALUES

We believe the quality of our program flows directly from the well-being of our team. We are

committed to building a workplace where instructors feel supported, invested in, and proud of

The Work They Do. Our Culture Is Grounded In

• Purpose-Driven Service. Everything we do is in service of the health, confidence, and
  
  

independence of the seniors we work with.

• Integrity & Reliability. We do what we say, we show up for our participants and one
  
  

another, and we hold ourselves to a high standard.

• Continuous Improvement. We invest in learning, coaching, and growth so that our
  
  

instructors — and our program — keep getting better.

• Authentic Connection. We lead with empathy and build genuine relationships with our
  
  

participants, their families, and our community partners.

• A Supportive Team. Our owners come from careers built on developing people, and we
  
  

bring that same commitment to clarity, compassion, and support to our own team.

WHY JOIN OUR TEAM

• Work that truly matters. You will see the impact of your work in every session — in
  
  

stronger bodies, brighter spirits, and renewed independence.

• Room to grow. As we expand across the Indianapolis market, there is real opportunity to
  
  

take on more sessions and grow into greater responsibility over time.

• A flexible, contract-based schedule. Build a schedule that fits your life while doing work
  
  

you can be proud of.

• A community to be proud of. We are creating spaces where seniors stay active,
  
  

connected, and supported — and where great instructors love to work.

Compensation

$30-$40 per hour. Additional compensation for private and

small group sessions.
