Responsibilities

• Coach Like a Pro: Deliver fun, dynamic classes that boost brainpower, physical skills, and character for kids walking to 11 years old (KS is introducing SOON a new class group for babies, so you must be comfortable with babies who aren't yet walking as well!)

• Be the Best: Achieve Coach Certification and keep leveling up your skills like you're in a video game with our stellar training programs.
• Create positive interactions with families before, during, and after class -- you're the reason they love KidStrong!
