About The Position

Pure Physique Scarsdale is seeking a full-time Personal Trainer/Fitness Coach to join their team. This role involves more than just counting reps; it requires a coach who brings energy, connects with clients, takes ownership of their success, and is eager to grow with the studio. The trainer will work with both new and existing clients, assisting new members, challenging current clients, and creating a positive client experience. The company emphasizes that great coaches should be able to build a career in fitness without sacrificing their entire life. Pure Physique is a boutique strength training concept focused on efficient, 30-minute, trainer-led resistance training for busy adults. The Scarsdale studio specifically works with busy professionals, parents, and adults seeking personalized training with the energy of a small-group environment. Sessions are intentionally small to allow trainers to provide individualized coaching, correct form, select appropriate resistance, track progress, understand limitations, and challenge each individual. The company's philosophy is 'WE BUILD PEOPLE UP,' applying to both clients and the team. As a Full-Time Personal Trainer, you will be a key player in client success and studio growth, coaching small-group and private sessions, building client relationships, and collaborating with studio ownership to welcome prospective clients, conduct introductory sessions, communicate program value, and contribute to studio growth. This role is for someone who wants to be an integral part of the team and contribute beyond just coaching a class.
