About D1 Training

D1 Training is an athletic-based group training facility for adults and youth athletes ages 7 and up. Our mission is simple: You pick the goal, we help you get there.

We combine expert coaching, proven training systems, and a high-energy environment to help every athlete improve performance, build confidence, and reach their goals.

Position Overview

As a D1 Coach, you’ll lead group workouts, provide individualized guidance, and create an environment where athletes feel challenged, supported, and motivated. This role is ideal for someone who is passionate about strength & conditioning, athlete development, and performance coaching.

What You’ll Do

• Lead group training sessions for youth, adults, and teams
• Provide personal training and individualized coaching when needed
• Teach proper form, technique, and movement mechanics
• Modify workouts to meet athletes at their current ability level
• Help athletes improve strength, speed, agility, and overall performance
• Build strong relationships and maintain regular communication with members
• Start and finish sessions on time while maintaining a high-energy environment
• Support member retention through coaching, accountability, and service

What We’re Looking For

• 1+ year of experience in strength & conditioning, personal training, or group fitness
• Strong understanding of exercise science, movement patterns, and injury prevention
• High energy, positive attitude, and ability to motivate others
• Excellent communication and relationship-building skills
• CPR/AED/First Aid certification (required)
• Bachelor’s degree in Exercise Science or related field (preferred)

Why This Role Stands Out

• Train a wide range of athletes, from youth to adults to teams
• Be part of a performance-based training environment, not just a typical gym
• Work with a brand that’s growing rapidly nationwide
• Make a direct impact on athletes’ performance and confidence

This is your chance to be part of a team that’s building something bigger than workouts.

If you’re the kind of coach who brings energy, demands effort, and genuinely cares about helping athletes improve, you’ll fit right in at D1 Training. You’ll coach athletes of all ages, push people past their limits, and see real progress every day. Not many jobs let you say that without exaggerating.
