Teacher for Gym, Music, and Play
About The Position
Calling all performers, spotlight-seekers, and anyone who likes to ham it up! If you’re reading this, it’s safe to assume that you don’t see yourself as a “9-5” type. If we’re being honest, neither do we! We are My Gym Children’s Fitness Center – the ultimate children’s fitness and developmental activity center – Lincoln Park, Chicago, and we get to sing, dance, and play all day… in a T-shirt and socks!! Do you love kids, being generally silly, and enjoy really fun, positive, happy vibes? My Gym is THAT vibe! Pull on some joggers and socks, and WORK IT. :) Who are you? Someone who is high-energy, loves to play, be silly, and thinks corn isn’t cringe. A warm friend. A team player who follows through and always gives 100%. Reliable and communicative. Our kids will bond with you, so ghosts need not apply. My Gym Children’s Fitness Center is a lot more than just “Mommy and Me!" From first steps to first handstands, we are committed to creating wonderful Moments That Matter. Our gyms are safe, colorful, and oh-so-clean spaces, and our staff pride themselves on providing a fun, safe, and meaningful experience to each and every family who enters through our doors. Every day in more than 700 locations worldwide, My Gym kids attend structured, noncompetitive and age-appropriate classes and birthday parties taught by incredibly talented, fun, and happy grown-ups. Our curriculum grows with children and features a wide variety of activities designed to promote coordination, agility, flexibility, motor skills, and social skills. Whether it’s a toddler in a parent-participation class wiggling through a warm-up, or a school-aged Ninja kid conquering our Warped Wall, the FUN never stops! My Gym’s brand promise is to love and nurture all children through meaningful play, and it’s a promise we take to heart. We hope you’ll join us! This franchise is independently owned and operated by a franchisee. Your application will go directly to the franchisee, and all hiring decisions will be made by the management of that franchise. All inquiries about employment at this franchise should be made directly to the franchisee, and not to My Gym Corporate.
