Bottom line: You will be paid $16.00‑$20.00 per hour as a part‑time Exercise Coach employee and your compensation is never commission‑based so you are always paid for your time whether training clients or not.

• Provide Ongoing Health and Fitness Education: Our clients rely on us to service all of their health and fitness needs. It is your job as a fitness coach to provide your clients with health and fitness education on various topics that will empower them to lead healthy lives forever.
