I'm in the LA area building a senior wellness fitness program for active-adult and 55+ communities, and I'm looking for certified aquatic fitness instructors to deliver pool sessions as we bring on community partners.

I'm currently building relationships with communities and don't have a signed placement yet, so I can't give an exact start date. I'm connecting with a few qualified instructors now so I have a group ready as placements come together.

This is part-time 1099 contract work with competitive pay based on experience, starting at 2–3 sessions/week with room to grow as we add communities. Sessions are 45–50 minutes, focused on balance, mobility, strength, and cardio for older adults, a structured program rather than a generic water aerobics class.

Requirements:

• Based in the Los Angeles area, with your own transportation
• Current aquatic fitness certification (AEA/ACE or equivalent)
• CPR/AED certification
• Must carry (or be willing to obtain) your own liability insurance
• Comfortable working with older adults
