Combatives Coach | D1 Training Lakeland, TN

Turn Your Collegiate or Military Grind into a Coaching Career. At D1 Training, we don't do "gym classes." We build athletes. We are looking for a Combatives Coach who has lived the "blood, sweat, and tears" of high-level grappling. If you’ve spent years on the mat and want to translate that mental toughness and technical mastery into a career, this is your training ground.

The Mission

You will lead our membership in high-energy workouts, 1-on-1 sessions, and team training with a heavy focus on combat sports, grappling mechanics, and power development. From 7-year-old beginners to seasoned adults and pro athletes, you are the catalyst that helps them reach their peak.

Why Coach at D1?

The Environment: Train in a state-of-the-art facility designed for elite performance. No "big box gym" vibes here—we operate like a championship-caliber team.

The Impact: Use your wrestling/BJJ IQ to reduce injury risks and build functional "mat-strength" in athletes of all ages.

The Growth: We provide continuing education, D1 Certification, and a platform to build your personal brand as a specialist coach.

The Perks: Flexible scheduling, a free elite membership, and a culture that values "working hard and playing hard."

What You Bring to the Mat

The Pedigree: 4+ years of collegiate wrestling or high-level grappling (BJJ/Judo) experience is strongly preferred. We value the "mat hours" you’ve put in.

The Energy: High-octane leadership. You don’t just watch; you motivate, correct, and inspire.

The Discipline: You show up early, you’re prepared, and you keep the facility "game-day ready."

The Credentials: * Valid Personal Training or Combatives related Certification

Your Game Plan

Lead group workouts and personal training with a focus on speed, strength, and combative movement.

Conduct athlete evaluations and goal-setting sessions to ensure every member has a roadmap to success.

Represent D1 at local combines, competitions, and marketing events.

Maintain the "D1 Way"—delivering a world-class experience to every person who walks through the door, from youth athletes to pros.

Are you ready to lead the next generation of athletes?
