Fitness Coach Jobs in Maryland

Anytime Fitness Kensington is looking for a motivated, outgoing fitness professional who loves coaching people and is interested in learning more about the business side of the fitness industry.

This is a hybrid role combining Small Group Training, Team Training, fitness consultations, member engagement, and club operations.

We are looking for someone who is excited about coaching groups and helping grow our training community, not simply building a traditional book of 1-on-1 personal training clients.

A major focus of this position will be conducting fitness consultations with new and existing members, understanding their goals, and helping connect them with the right coaching option. Our goal is to continue expanding our Small Group and Team Training programs and create an environment where more members have access to coaching, accountability, and community.

At the same time, we want this person to learn how the entire club operates. You will gain experience with membership sales, member service, club operations, marketing, retention, and the day-to-day business of running a fitness facility.

For the right person, there is significant opportunity for the role and responsibilities to grow over time.

What You'll Do:

Coach & Grow Our Training Programs

• Coach Small Group Training sessions.
• Coach larger Team Training classes.
• Deliver safe, effective, and engaging workouts for a variety of fitness levels.
• Create an energetic and welcoming training environment.
• Build relationships with members and help improve attendance, accountability, and retention.
• Help grow existing training groups and identify opportunities for new groups and class times.
• Follow up with members and help keep them engaged in their training.

Conduct Fitness Consultations

• Meet with new and existing members to discuss their goals, exercise history, challenges, and needs.
• Help members determine the appropriate level of coaching and support.
• Introduce members to Small Group Training, Team Training, personal training, and other club services when appropriate.
• Follow up with prospective training clients.
• Become comfortable explaining the value of coaching and helping members take the next step.

Learn the Business & Club Operations

This is more than just a coaching position. We want you to understand how the entire club operates.

You will have the opportunity to learn and assist with:

• Membership sales and club tours.
• New member registration and onboarding.
• Lead and prospect follow-up.
• Member service and retention.
• Scheduling appointments and fitness consultations.
• Basic membership and account questions.
• Marketing, promotions, events, and community outreach.
• Maintaining a clean, organized, and professional club environment.
• General administrative and operational projects.
• Office/member service coverage when needed

Who We're Looking For

The ideal candidate:

• Is passionate about fitness and helping people.
• Enjoys coaching groups and creating energy in a room.
• Is comfortable working with people of different ages, abilities, and fitness levels.
• Has strong communication and interpersonal skills.

• Is dependable, organized, and professional.
• Is willing to help with both coaching and club operations.
• Is interested in learning how a successful fitness business works.
• Wants an opportunity to grow rather than simply picking up a few personal training sessions.

Previous experience in personal training, Small Group Training, group fitness, athletics, strength and conditioning, or a similar field is preferred.

A nationally recognized personal training certification is preferred. Candidates actively working toward certification may also be considered depending on experience.

CPR/AED certification is required or must be obtained.

We are looking for someone with flexibility to work a combination of:

• Weekday daytime hours
• Afternoon/evening coaching
• Fitness consultations
• Weekend hours, including Saturdays and Sundays

Consistent availability during established training times will be important as groups are developed.

Compensation

Competitive hourly compensation based on experience, qualifications, and responsibilities.

This position includes a base hourly rate for fitness consultations, member engagement, and club operations, with additional performance-based compensation for Small Group and Team Training coaching hours.

Our coaching compensation structure is designed to reward coaches as participation in their training groups grows, creating the opportunity to earn a higher effective hourly rate during coaching sessions.

Specific base pay and coaching compensation will be discussed during the interview process.
