Life’s too short to not work someplace awesome! If you love kids, enjoy moving, and being active in your job while having a ton of fun, you may be the person we are looking for!
What we expect from you…
  • Introduce kids to the serious fun of education and play, all within The Little Gym's unique learning environment.
  • Teach amazing classes based on our proven curriculum and teaching method (don’t worry, we’ll teach you how!)
  • Provide outstanding customer service and membership experience. We treat our members like family here.
  • Lead/Assist gymnastics classes for children aged 4 months to 12 years, ensuring lesson plans are carefully followed 
  • Work with children accommodating various ability levels, promoting skill advancement, self-confidence, and enjoyment of the sport.
  • Evaluate and track students' progress, offer tailored feedback, and adjust instruction to meet individual needs.
  • Foster a supportive, energetic, and positive class atmosphere that encourages student involvement and a love for gymnastics.
  • Adhere to safety protocols and best practices, including correct equipment use and spotting techniques, to ensure student safety.
  • Engage in staff meetings, training sessions, and professional development opportunities to refine teaching skills and stay current with gymnastics trends.
  • Support gym events, competitions, and showcases, offering guidance and encouragement to students.
  • Maintain the cleanliness and organization of the gymnastics area and equipment.
  • Note: Singing, tumbling, cheering, dancing, jumping, wiggling, skipping, smiling and laughing are vital to the role! Please be able and prepared to do all of the above- every day in every class! The "Vibe" is EVERYTHING! 
A few little requirements…
  • Reliable transportation to get to/from work (Location of Gym: Englewood, NJ)
  • Strong time management skills (classes run on a tight schedule)
  • Communication is key! Both with the Directors/Owners and the students/parents
  • Ability to work evenings and weekends (not always, and we can discuss further during the interview process)
  • Preferred: Background in children's education, gymnastics, cheerleading, etc. 
  • Ability to sing, tumble, cheer, dance, high-five, smile, laugh and more! 
  • I cannot stress this enough.... you MUST love working with children! If you don't, then this isn't the right place for you (and that's ok!)
You’d fit in here if…
  • Teach amazing classes based on our proven curriculum and teaching method (don’t worry, we’ll teach you how!)
  • Provide outstanding customer service and membership experience. We treat our members like family here.
  • Create a warm, fun, and educational environment for the Children in each class.
  • Treat each class and each child as if it’s their first day – EVERY WEEK!
  • You love having fun, like giving high 5’s, and can play like a child!  (A background in child development, physical education, and/or gymnastics helps as well)
  • You live to serve! Making others feel good makes you feel good.
  • Kids really like you, but their parents really like you too.
  • You were voted most likely to be in a good mood by your high school classmates. 
  • You love to have fun, but you know when to buckle down and do work. 
You may think we’re awesome because…
  • Children walk out of our classes more confident than when they walked in every single day.
  • You’ll get your steps in and close your activity rings while you work because you’ll be moving all day.
  • We take our fun pretty seriously but also take the role we play in our community and with each child we meet seriously.  The relationships you’ll build here will last a lifetime.
  • You could get paid to fold t-shirts or you could get paid to act like a dinosaur. The choice is yours.
  • This may not be your career, but we are surely going to train you like it is.
