Job description

Company Overview

At Amara, we’re on a mission to help people live healthier, happier, and more connected lives. We offer health and wellness classes, starting with expert-led group fitness, and are expanding into areas like nutrition, mental well-being, and preventive care.

Our programs are delivered directly in large residential communities (200+ units), making wellness more accessible by removing transportation and scheduling barriers. We also work closely with building partners and insurance providers to keep classes affordable, including the ability to use FSA / HSA funds and insurance reimbursement, so residents can focus on their health, not the paperwork.

Amara’s companion app enhances the in-person experience with personalized wellness tips, exercises, and progress tracking. This helps participants reach both personal and class-specific goals.

We currently offer three signature class formats :

  • Full-body cardio
  • Functional strength and stability
  • Stretching and balance with yoga-inspired elements

We’re expanding across Los Angeles and looking for exceptional instructors to lead the way.

What You’ll Do

  • Lead fun, engaging group classes focused on strength, balance, and mobility.
  • Bring warmth, humor, and energy — your personality is part of the experience!
  • Adapt exercises to meet participant needs, ensuring safety and accessibility.
  • Build relationships that go beyond fitness — our classes are about connection and joy.
  • Track attendance and simple class outcomes (training provided).
  • Participate in paid training sessions and share feedback to help us improve.
  • Start with ~4 hours per week, with potential for more as we grow.
  • You Should Apply If You…

  • Are either a licensed Physical Therapist or Occupational Therapist in California, or a certified group fitness instructor qualified to teach cardio, strength, and stretching / yoga-style classes.
  • Have at least 1 year of experience teaching or leading group fitness or movement-based sessions.(We’re looking for experienced instructors and will only consider applicants who meet this requirement.)
  • Enjoy teaching in group settings and thrive in a social environment.
  • Know how to make movement feel good for all body types and abilities.
  • Believe that fitness should be joyful and empowering at any age.
  • Hold current CPR and First Aid certification.
  • Extra Awesome If You Have…

  • Experience working with older adults or in geriatric care.
  • Taught classes such as functional movement, fall prevention, or strength training.
  • A background in wellness coaching.
  • Why You’ll Love Working with Amara

  • Make a real difference in people’s lives every day.
  • Get consistent, well-paid hours with flexible scheduling.
  • Join a team that’s supportive, mission-driven, and full of heart.
  • Be part of something new and exciting — and help shape the future of wellness for older adults.
  • Interested? Apply now and bring your energy to the movement that’s redefining aging.

    Let’s build a healthier, happier Los Angeles together.
