This role will own group fitness programming, individual fitness goal setting, progress tracking, workout planning, and the overall quality and safety of the fitness experience. This role is not just about running workouts. It is about using physical challenges as a tool to help young people build confidence, grit, discipline, and a belief that they are capable of doing hard things. Position Title & Overview Havenwood is seeking a full-time Head Fitness Coach to lead the fitness, strength, conditioning, and physical wellness programming for our guests.
