Gym jobs in Singapore

We are looking for passionate, reliable individuals who enjoy coaching and working with kids, teens, and adults, as well as being part of a team that is growing a lively community centred around movement and play.

Our company runs an indoor facility that specializes in the sport of Parkour, which really is just using your body to move around the environment (crawling, jumping, climbing and even flipping!). We also teach at various schools and outdoor spots around Singapore.

No parkour experience? That’s okay. We have the best instructors in our academy to shape one up from a complete beginner to a confident coach!
