Gymkhana Gymnastics Instructor

The mission of Gymkhana Gymnastics is to foster the physical, emotional, and social development of children through unparalleled gymnastics instruction – and our instructors make that happen!

For over forty years, Gymkhana has been Pittsburgh’s premier gymnastics school and we continue to grow. We are seeking positive, high-energy instructors to join our team at each of our locations: Monroeville, Point Breeze, Wexford, and Bethel Park. We are flexible with your schedule and can offer both part-time and full-time positions!
