About bantr
bantr is a hospitality company (www.bantrhospitality.com) built to bring real connection back to everyday life. We believe apartment buildings should be more than just a place you live. They should be places where neighbors become friends, and where wellbeing is part of the daily routine instead of something you have to go looking for.
Our mission is to create living environments that inspire people to progress holistically in their lives. Through bantr, in partnership with The Base, we bring fitness classes, social events, local business pop-ups, and resident-led clubs directly to the communities we serve. Movement and togetherness are at the heart of it, and that’s where you come in.
The Role
We’re looking for an energetic, community-minded fitness instructor to lead classes for bantr residents and the public. Whether your specialty is HIIT, strength training, water fitness, boxing, or another sport, you’ll be part of a wellness community across our properties, where people show up for the workout and stay for the connection. We’re open to different formats, schedules, and class concepts, and we’d love to hear what you envision.
What You’ll Do
- Plan and lead HIIT, strength, water fitness, boxing, or other specialty classes for bantr residents and members of the public
- Create a welcoming, motivating atmosphere for all fitness levels, from first-timers to experienced athletes
- Demonstrate proper form and offer modifications so every participant can train safely
- Help residents get to know each other before and after class
- Set up, break down, and care for class equipment
- Share feedback and ideas with the bantr team to help shape future wellness programming
- Follow safety practices, including proper equipment handling, and respond to emergencies using first aid, CPR, and AED procedures as needed
What We’re Looking For
- Certification in your specialty, such as group fitness, personal training, aquatic fitness, or boxing/combat fitness (or equivalent demonstrated coaching experience)
- Experience coaching group classes, with the ability to motivate participants of all levels
- Knowledge of safe exercise technique, progressions, and modifications
- Current first aid and CPR certification, and familiarity with AED use
- Physical ability to demonstrate movements and handle equipment, including occasional heavy lifting
- A high-energy, approachable style and a genuine interest in building community
- Reliability and consistency with scheduling
- Experience in personal training, CrossFit, cycling, kickboxing, sports coaching, or a gym or health club setting is a plus
Schedule & Location
Part-time with flexible scheduling. We’ll work with you to find class times that fit your availability and our residents’ interests. Classes will be held in rotating locations, such as the rooftop at bantr Wausau or the courtyard at bantr Rothschild.
Why bantr
- Be part of something new: help shape wellness programming from the ground up
- Grow your following by coaching both residents and the public
- Bring your own ideas, style, and class concepts
- Join a team that cares about meaningful, in-person connection

Tips for Your Boxing Instructor Job Search
List your certifications before experience
Boxing employers scan for USA Boxing or NSCA credentials before reading your work history. Put your certifications in a dedicated section at the top of your resume so hiring managers see them immediately without digging.
Tailor your resume to the gym type
A boutique cardio boxing studio hires differently than a competitive boxing gym or a school athletics department. Adjust your resume's language to reflect the client type and training style each employer actually serves before you apply.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists boxing instructor openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match your specialization and apply directly to each listing without sorting through unrelated results.
Film a short demonstration reel
Many boxing instructor hiring managers expect to see you coach before scheduling an interview. A two-to-three minute video showing your pad work, cueing style, and class energy answers questions your resume can't, especially for remote or multi-location employers screening candidates early.
Prepare for a live coaching audition
Most gyms and fitness centers ask finalists to lead a short class or pad session before extending an offer. Arrive with a structured warmup, a clear drill sequence, and a cooldown so the evaluator sees you can manage time and class flow under real conditions.
Negotiate class load before accepting
Boxing instructor offers often list a base hourly rate but leave class volume vague. Before you accept, confirm the guaranteed weekly hours, peak-season expectations, and whether private session income is pooled or kept individually so you understand your actual take-home.
Boxing Instructor Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most boxing instructors?
The companies hiring the most boxing instructors right now include Crunch Fitness, EXOS, and Equinox, with the largest share of openings in New York, Texas, and California, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Demand is typically highest at multi-location gym chains and community recreation departments with year-round programming.
How many boxing instructor jobs are remote?
About 0% of boxing instructor openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, reflecting the hands-on nature of most coaching roles. The sub-areas with the most remote flexibility are online programming, virtual coaching sessions, and curriculum development for digital fitness platforms.
How do you become a boxing instructor?
Start by earning a recognized boxing coaching certification such as one from USA Boxing, which requires you to complete a background check, complete a coaching education course, and pass a skills assessment. Pair that with a current CPR and first aid credential. Build hands-on experience by assisting an established coach, then take on beginner classes independently before pursuing lead instructor roles.
Can you get hired as a boxing instructor with little or no experience?
Yes, entry-level boxing instructor roles exist, particularly at community recreation centers, YMCAs, and cardio boxing studios that prioritize a strong fitness background and coachability over competitive boxing history. Getting your USA Boxing certification first signals commitment, and offering to assist a senior coach unpaid for a short period is a recognized way to build a reference and practical hours quickly.
What does the boxing instructor interview process look like?
Most employers start with a brief phone or video screen to confirm your certifications and availability. A second round typically involves an in-person or recorded coaching audition where you lead a short class or pad session for staff or members. Final candidates usually meet with a gym manager or athletic director who discusses class philosophy, scheduling expectations, and client demographics before an offer is made.
Where can I find and apply to boxing instructor jobs?
You can find and apply to boxing instructor jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from gyms, fitness centers, schools, and recreation programs across the United States. Find roles that match your specialization and location, then apply directly to each listing from the same place.
