Personal Trainer
StretchPlex is growing, and we're looking for exceptional people to join our team as Body Coaches. This isn't a typical personal training or gym job. StretchPlex works one-on-one with adults who want to move better, remain active and independent, and continue doing the things that matter to them. Through assisted stretching, personal training, movement coaching and recovery services, our Body Coaches build lasting relationships and help clients make movement and strength a consistent part of life. Our mission is simple: Stay strong. Move well. Keep doing the things you love.
About the role
As a Body Coach, you'll take ownership of the client's StretchPlex experience from session to session. Technical knowledge matters, but who you are matters just as much. The people who thrive at StretchPlex are humble, hungry, and people-smart—genuinely caring about clients and supporting the team.
