YYC Kickboxing is a 'UK-style' boutique fitness studio located in Royal Oak (NW Calgary). We've been helping people punch their way to happiness since 2019, offering fitness combined with technique kickboxing classes for adults of all ages, as well as families attending with older youth. We kick bags, not buddies (usually!), and enjoy windows on three sides of our 3400' space. Our classes are fun, energetic, and positive, and provide an amazing workout to help regular folks meet their fitness goals.
Our class schedule is growing, and we're looking for new part-time contract coaches to join our team! Rate of pay is $17 - $19 per hour, dependent on the applicant's experience in similar positions. There are opportunities to convert to employee once a probationary period has passed. The primary shifts we are interested to fill ASAP are Monday and Tuesday evenings from 4:30 - 8:30PM (3 classes of 45 mins per evening), with opportunities to expand to more based on availability.
We will prioritize coaches who...
