Pilates Instructor Position Just For You!”
Dear Prospective Pilates Instructor,
First of all, thanks for taking the time to visit this site. It’s our hope you have precisely what we need in a Pilates Instructor so we can take this page down immediately, and put you to work in the fun and rewarding coaching position we have available.
You should have arrived here because you saw our employment advertisement that reads like this:
Pilates Instructor, excellent attitude, people person,
growth/bonus opportunities.
So let us tell you a little bit about ourselves, our company and the coaching position we have available.
We are Dave & Desiree Challice and we run a Fitness, Rehab and Nutrition coaching company called Peak Fitness & Rehab in Palm Coast, Florida.
Our business is dedicated to helping active women and men (15-70 year old) achieve their health and fitness goals through customized nutrition and rehab/fitness programs.
And business is booming!
We are looking for an enthusiastic, motivated, and energetic person to start training some of our current clients as well as new clients coming in our door.
Our studio is located on 17 Old Kings Road North, Suite O, in Palm Coast.
We currently offer private and semi-private equipment based Pilates sessions and customized fitness/ corrective exercise programs, group coaching classes, and lifestyle nutrition, which educate, motivate, and support men, women, and teens to improve their health and fitness.
If you are hired for this coaching position, you’ll begin coaching clients in the studio up to 5 days a week for up to 8 hours per day Monday through Friday. The days and times are currently quite flexible.
Bottom line: you’ll get at least 30 hours of training clients per week. You will be paid as an employee , and you have the opportunity to move up after a 90-day trial period. Our studio offers a casual, fun environment, awesome training equipment, and the opportunity to learn the inner-workings of a successful comprehensive fitness studio.
Oh yeah, we are also very fair, respectful, and appreciative. We like having fun and we pride ourselves in providing highly valuable fitness services and products. You will be compensated fairly, treated fairly, and we will certainly look for ways to pay you more for your efforts if they warrant it. We want someone who enjoys working with people and making a difference in the lives of others…because that’s what we do in our studio.
We are also looking for someone that believes in our 5 Core Values of Honesty, Integrity, Dependability, Team Work and Making a Difference as well as our Mission of “Facilitating ultimate heath and wellness to adults and children by providing comprehensive wellness programs utilizing an integrative approach.”
Required Outcomes:
Develop comprehensive health and fitness programs for clients. You’ll receive coaching and training on our fitness system and programs, but you’ll have the flexibility to incorporate your training style and knowledge.
Tracking client progress. To ensure a client’s success in our programs, you’ll need to track weekly progress, current successes and challenges, review client nutrition and exercise log worksheets, and more on a weekly basis. It will be your job to hold a client accountable to his/her health and fitness program to ensure the best results possible.
Perform fitness evaluations. Ideally, you’ll have some fitness assessment skills and can test for: body composition, body weight, girth measurements, blood pressure, heart rate, and various strength and flexibility tests. You do not need previous experience, but if you do, that’s a bonus.
Coach clients through their commitment level. You’ll be responsible for weekly exercise sessions and keeping detailed weekly progress reports on the clients you’re working with. If a client is having challenges throughout his/her program, you’ll coach and motivate them, and make appropriate changes to ensure consistent progress.
Demonstrate proper exercise instruction. This is a big one. We need you to be able to provide proper coaching, instruction, and motivation during a client’s training session. You should have a working knowledge of the human body (i.e. muscles, movements, functions, etc.), and be able to provide appropriate exercises for client’s goals.
Provide ongoing health and fitness education. Our clients rely on us to service all of their health and fitness needs. It is your job as a fitness coach to provide your clients with health and fitness education on various topics that empower them to lead healthy lives forever. You’ll be provided with educational tools and resources, be expected to study them, and speak about them with your clients. We also spend time covering this in our staff meetings.
Required Skills:
These are the skills you must already have in order to qualify for this position:
Good communication skills. You will be talking with our clients, who are VERY important to us. You must be comfortable conversing in-person and on the phone, and know how to conduct yourself professionally and deliver clear instructions to the clients. We will teach you everything you need to do during a training session, but we can’t teach you manners and professionalism.
People skills and personality. You must LOVE working with people! As mentioned above you must be very comfortable working with people. This is an exciting studio and you must be able to show your clients energy and excitement while working with them.
Health and fitness education: Pilates certification in equipment based Pilates and matwork with a minimum of 300 apprentice hours documented and completed.
Bonus Skills:
If you have these additional skills, your resume will go right to the top of the stack (but if you don’t have these skills, you should still apply because they are not mandatory).

Basic nutrition knowledge
National certification
