HIIT instructor

Midtown Athletic Club is searching for a dynamic, high-energy Arena Instructor to join our world-class fitness team. We aren't looking for someone who simply leads a workout, we're looking for a coach, motivator, entertainer, and community-builder who can command a room and inspire members to push beyond their limits.

Arena is one of Midtown's most challenging and rewarding studio experiences—a 45-minute, high-intensity workout that combines treadmill intervals, strength training, and performance coaching in an immersive boutique fitness environment.

As a private club with six boutique studios, Midtown offers instructors the opportunity to grow their careers, expand their skill sets, and become part of a premier fitness community.

As an Arena Instructor, you'll bring the studio to life through your personality, coaching style, and ability to connect with members.

You'll:

• Lead high-energy, results-driven Arena classes that challenge and inspire.

• Coach members through treadmill and strength-training intervals with confidence and expertise.

• Create an immersive experience through music, movement, motivation, and performance.

• Develop your own playlists and use musicality to elevate the energy of the room.

• Educate members on proper form, performance, and training techniques.

• Motivate participants of all fitness levels to achieve more than they thought possible.

• Build relationships and foster a loyal community that creates a "yearn to return" culture.

• Deliver a consistent, safe, and exceptional member experience.

You're the instructor people remember.

You bring:

• Strong stage presence and confidence leading a room.
• High energy, charisma, and the ability to connect with members.
• A passion for coaching, fitness, and helping others succeed.
• Exceptional communication and motivational skills.
• A love for music and creating engaging workout experiences.
• The ability to be equal parts cheerleader, educator, and coach.
• Professionalism, reliability, and a growth mindset.
• Flexibility to teach mornings, evenings, weekends, and special events.

We're especially interested in candidates with experience coaching in boutique fitness environments such as:

• HIIT-based group training concepts
• Athletic performance training
• Functional strength and conditioning programs

Experience coaching both cardio and strength-based formats is highly preferred.

• Current nationally recognized Group Fitness Instructor or Personal Training Certification.
• CPR/AED Certification (or ability to obtain before hire).
• Previous group fitness coaching experience preferred.
• Ability to coach large groups while maintaining safety, energy, and engagement.

At Midtown, you'll do more than teach classes—you'll build a career. With six boutique studio concepts, ongoing education, coaching development, and opportunities to expand your teaching portfolio, you'll be supported every step of the way.

If you're a passionate coach with the personality to light up a room, the ability to motivate members through their toughest workouts, and the desire to create unforgettable fitness experiences, we want to hear from you.
