Fitness Coach / Personal Trainer (Group, personal)

Fitness Coach / Personal Trainer

Part-Time | Harrison, NY

LYFT Strength & Wellness (LoseYourselfFitness) is a boutique strength and performance gym built on coaching excellence, strong relationships, and long-term development — not quick fixes or crowded classes.

We specialize in small group training (up to 12), semi-private coaching (2–4), private training, and are proud to be a HYROX Training Club, offering dedicated hybrid and performance-based conditioning.

We’re looking for an experienced coach who brings both technical skill and great energy — someone who is confident, coachable, professional, and genuinely enjoyable to be around.

We’re looking for coaches who are technically competent, highly personable, and take pride in how they show up — not just what they know.

Who This Role Is For

This role is not for newly certified trainers.

We’re seeking a coach who:

• Has real-world coaching experience
• Is comfortable leading groups and individuals
• Understands strength & conditioning beyond templates
• Is coachable, curious, and open to learning
• Has a great personality, emotional intelligence, and sense of humor
• Values relationships, community, and professionalism
• Wants to be part of a tight-knit, values-driven gym

We believe technical skills can be developed — character, empathy, and presence cannot.

What We’re Looking For

Required

• 2+ years of in-person coaching experience in a gym or training facility
  (Applications without this will not be considered)
• Nationally recognized certification
  (NASM, ACE, CSCS, CHEK, or equivalent)
• CPR & AED certified
• Strong understanding of:
• Strength training principles
• Movement patterns and regressions/progressions
• Group coaching dynamics
• Clear communication, high energy, and professional presence
• Ability to coach both athletes and everyday adults
• Able to commute within 20–25 minutes of Harrison, NY
• Availability for early mornings (5:30–9:00 AM) plus some evenings/weekends

Strongly Preferred

• Experience coaching HYROX-style, hybrid, or performance-based training
• Background in conditioning, endurance, or competitive fitness
• Interest in growing into semi-private or private coaching

What You’ll Do

• Coach:
• Small group strength & conditioning sessions
• Semi-private training (2–4 clients)
• HYROX-focused training classes
• Deliver high-quality coaching with:
• Clear cues
• Smart regressions and progressions
• Safety, intention, and attention to detail
• Adapt programming to meet members where they are
• Build real relationships and contribute to a positive, welcoming culture
• Support the overall member experience
• Assist with light facility responsibilities and day-to-day operations
• Show up prepared, engaged, and professional every session

Why Coach at LYFT

• Coaching-first gym (not a volume-based class factory)
• Tight-knit, supportive community
• Opportunities to grow into:
• Semi-private coaching
• Private training
• HYROX performance coaching
• Clear standards, strong culture, and room to develop
• A gym that values quality over chaos
