You will play a key role in delivering high-quality classes, supporting curriculum execution, and helping elevate the overall coaching experience in the gym.

Support and guide other instructors through example, encouragement, and feedback

You’d be a great fit here if

You can manage a class independently while keeping kids engaged, safe, and motivated

You understand how to adapt skills and progressions for different ages and ability levels

You treat every class and every child like it’s their first day, every single week

You take pride in being a leader on the floor and a role model for the team

You’d really shine if

You love having fun, giving high fives, and being silly, but also know when to buckle down and lead

Kids gravitate toward you, and parents trust you

You communicate clearly, stay organized, and follow through

You enjoy helping newer instructors grow and succeed

You bring positive energy and consistency, even on busy days

You may think we’re awesome because

You love talking with parents (and teaching them!)

We take fun seriously, and we take child development and safety even more seriously

You can get paid to fold t-shirts or get paid to act like a superhero or dinosaur

While this may not be your forever career, we will train and support you like it is

The fine print (but still important)
We are a gymnastics-based enrichment center for children ages 4 months through 12 years. Our programs focus on confidence, coordination, strength, and social development in a clean, safe, and nurturing environment. Classes are non-competitive and taught in a way that encourages children to progress at their own pace.

If you’re a confident gymnastics coach who loves kids, enjoys leadership, and wants to make a real impact, we’d love to meet you.
