• Lead dynamic group training sessions and personal training for youth, adults, and teams.
• Foster a positive, high-energy, motivating environment every single session.
• Modify programs to meet each athlete’s goals, strengths, and limitations. Teach proper form, movement, and safety with precision. Build deep relationships — know every athlete’s goals and help them crush them. Provide ongoing education and accountability in strength, speed, and nutrition.
• Contribute to a culture that prizes excellence, community, and results.

• 2+ years coaching in a strength & conditioning, group training, or personal training setting

• Valid CPR/AED/First Aid certification
