GLL is looking for a Fitness Instructor based at Leatherhead Leisure Centre. Our Fitness Instructors have plenty of energy, ambition, and expertise; this is your chance to help people achieve their fitness potential.
As a Fitness Instructor, part of your role is to inspire people to train independently and keep coming back, helping them understand their fitness aspirations. It all starts with an induction for you to understand someone’s ability and ambitions and ultimately devise a bespoke programme that suits their needs. As a real people-person, this will come naturally as you quickly build people’s trust and confidence.
If you love variety, you’ll thrive here, as you never know who you’ll be supporting next. A typical day could be anything from providing a personal service in the gym and offering workout advice to checking the equipment and even teaching classes. An obvious passion for all things fitness will need to shine through all you do too, so that you can make a positive difference to people’s lives.
What you’ll do:
* Collect and check information relating to individual clients
* Analyse information relating to individual clients
* Identify and agree on smart short, medium, and long-term goals
* Plan, instruct, and evaluate safe and appropriate exercise sessions
* Provide 1-2-1 or group inductions and general exercise programmes, including the introduction to new equipment where appropriate
* Teach classes or small group training. Training will be given for them to be able to do this
* Select relevant exercises and design appropriate programmes which address safety at all times
* Produce suitable programme cards for a range of clients/members
* Suggest relevant exercise adaptations to allow for individual client differences or needs
* Use logical and progressive teaching methodologies to introduce a range of exercises in relation to client goals
* Select and/or correctly demonstrate a variety of training methods that can be used by clients/members
* Provide clients/members with general advice on how to progress their individual programmes
