INTERNSHIP  |  OVERLAND PARK, KS

Coaching Internship Program

12 Weeks  •  BridgeFit Personal Training  •  Adults 40+

Most internships have you cleaning equipment and watching from the corner. This one isn’t that.

If you’re serious about becoming a professional coach — not just someone who runs sessions — this 12-week program is built for you. You’ll work with real clients, get real feedback, and develop the skills that actually matter in a coaching career.

We coach adults 40+, which means communication, attention to detail, and professionalism matter just as much as exercise knowledge. You’ll be held to a high standard here — and that’s exactly the point.

BridgeFit has been voted Best Personal Training in Johnson County three years in a row. Most of our coaching staff came through this program.

Strong performance may lead to part-time or full-time employment. Hiring is based on performance, growth, and current staffing needs — not guaranteed, but it’s happened more often than not.

What You Can Expect

• A structured 12-week curriculum — not just shadowing, but actual skill development
• Hands-on coaching experience with adults 40+ in a real training environment
• Consistent mentorship and direct feedback from experienced coaches
• Exposure to professional coaching systems, programming, and client communication

What We Expect From You

• Coachability — you take feedback seriously and apply it
• Professional communication and presence every single day
• Reliability and consistent effort, not just when it’s convenient
• A genuine interest in helping people, not just running sessions

12-Week Curriculum Overview

Weeks 1–4: Foundation

• BridgeFit service and coaching standards

Weeks 9–12: Integration

Who This Is For

• Aspiring personal trainers or strength coaches who want to treat coaching as a profession

• People who value growth, accountability, and high standards
• Coaches who want long-term development — not shortcuts

If you’re ready to learn, grow, and be challenged in a professional coaching environment — send your resume.
