Fitness Coach

Anytime Fitness Tacoma is part of PH Fitness, a family-owned company operating three Anytime Fitness locations on the Olympic Peninsula and Puget Sound. We're owned by Evan Hurn and Makayla Payne - and what makes us different isn't just that we're owners who show up. It's how deeply we invest in the people who work for us. We pour into our staff because we know that's what shows up for members. Our Sequim club ranks in the top 100 out of 2,500+ Anytime Fitness clubs in North America and earned the "Most Improved" award in our first year of ownership. Silverdale opened in November 2025 and is growing fast. We acquired Tacoma in March 2026 and we're in the middle of turning it into something exceptional. We're building toward more locations and we're looking for people who want to grow with us. The coach we hire here will have a real path - to become the lead or Senior Coach as we scale the personal training side of this club. We're Looking For Kind, genuine human beings to be part of the AF Family. People who understand that life isn't too serious but are still highly motivated. We want team members eager to learn, grow, and get stuff done when it comes to helping others! About This Role This is our first coaching hire at the Tacoma location, and it's a real opportunity. You'll have the chance to build the personal training side of this club from the ground up. As demand grows - and we expect it to - we'll hire a second coach to support what we build. If you can lead, if you can sell, if you can deliver results that members talk about, the path to lead or Senior Coach is here for you. You won't be alone. You'll have the support of the coaching team across our other two locations, our managers, and us as owners. We're hands‑on, available, and invested in your success. Once you're up and running - the bulk of your week is spent coaching small group personal training sessions - 1 to 6 clients per session. We follow a programmed approach across all three clubs, but there's real flexibility within it. Programming is a team effort and your input matters. You're not just executing someone else's plan - you're contributing to how we coach. Who We're Looking For The right person for this role is someone who: Thrives in ambiguity. We don't have everything figured out. Some things will change as we grow. If you need a fully-built playbook to feel comfortable, this isn't your spot. Wants to be part of decision‑making. We're not going to hand you all the calls, but we expect you to think, push back, and contribute. We can learn something from everyone. Believes coaching is a craft. You take the work seriously even when no one's watching. Builds real relationships. Members should feel known by you, not just trained by you. Knows that fun and excellence aren't opposites.
