Attention to detail, the ability to think on your feet, and a strong desire to lead by example are key. A gymnastics background is a bonus, but what matters most is your love for coaching and enthusiasm for kids.

At The Little Gym, we work hard, we play hard, and we bring the energy. The work environment is fast-paced and full of excitement as we teach kids and support families in a fun, active setting. This is mostly an indoor role with a gym full of kids and parents, so you’ll stay busy, moving between administrative tasks and teaching dynamic classes.
The gym tends to be cool, so you’ll need to be comfortable in that environment. We work in socks, so make sure your favorite pair is ready. You’ll be working closely with the Gym Director and your fellow team members, so teamwork is key. We are all about collaboration and supporting each other.
