    Life’s too short to not work somewhere AWESOME.

    If you love working with kids, thrive in a high-energy environment, and want a role where you can lead, teach, and make a real impact—this might be the perfect fit.

    At The Little Gym, we help children ages 3–12 years build confidence through movement, skill-building, and imaginative play. We’re looking for an enthusiastic, dependable, and engaging instructor to lead our independent classes for Pre-K and Grade School students.

    Schedule

    🗓 Part-time afternoons/evenings:

    2–4 days per week

    Typical hours: 3:00–7:00 PM

    This is not a seasonal or summer-only position. We're looking for team members who are excited to grow with us and become a long-term part of our amazing community.
