PARKPOINT CLUBS•Healdsburg, CA

22d•$20 - $54

About The Position

The Personal Trainer offers personal training services to Parkpoint Club members and nonmembers and is expected to demonstrate the club’s mission and core values of Excellence, Respect, Integrity, Teamwork and Community, and Health and Well Being. The trainer helps cultivate a welcoming, non-threatening workout environment for people of all ages and fitness levels; attends to member safety; answers questions and concerns; and oversees equipment safety, cleanliness, and proper operation. Trainers are expected to be friendly, upbeat, outgoing, accessible, and committed to providing personable, proactive, solution-oriented service. Acquiring clients through consistent service and outreach is encouraged, while aggressive or competitive sales tactics are not acceptable. The trainer schedules and conducts client sessions, recommends appropriate training packages, obtains completed Trainer Client Agreement forms before training begins, and designs safe, effective workouts based on clients’ current health and fitness needs. The trainer sets goals, motivates clients, and provides proper instruction, with one-on-one attention as the primary focus during sessions. Trainers must follow their national certification guidelines and Parkpoint procedures, including those for client packages, scheduling, and payroll. Fitness floor shifts may be assigned as needed. During those shifts, trainers assist members, provide orientations, organize equipment, promote gym etiquette, and support a positive workout environment. If assigned regular fitness floor shifts, personal training must take place off-shift unless the Club Manager specifically permits otherwise. Training sessions are compensated at a specified rate based on session length and type. Administrative work related to timesheets, scheduling, and session-related member interactions is paid at the hourly minimum wage rate. The expected administrative time is currently no more than 10 minutes per completed session; additional time requires prior approval from the Fitness Director.
