Experience

• Ideally, 1-2 years of experience in personal training or coaching, or a strong background in sales, fitness, customer service, or hospitality.
• A proven track record of success in client engagement and fitness results.

Skills and Personal Qualities

• Tech-savvy with proficiency in basic computer programs.
