Job Description

Sometimes we find them via a job posting, and sometimes we find them in classes. Some will know the origin and insertion of the quadriceps muscles. Others will not, but they'll know the exact points of performance for a squat, and, more importantly, they'll be able to make a client smile while they learn to squat. Coaches are leaders. They need to inspire and connect with people. And they need to be able to follow instructions. Responsibilities Adhere to all standards of behavior in the coaches manual/staff playbook. Show leadership and professionalism at all times. Prepare and implement group training strategies for clients. Manage general administrative tasks and set the tone for each session. Lead clients through the general and specific warm-ups but be sure to move about the room and talk to each person. Requirements
