Job Description
⭐ Start as a Junior Coach — Grow Into a Lead & Senior Coach
Please note: this is a year-round position. If you can only work seasonally, this role isn't the right fit.
Amazing Athletes, Karate Zoo & Soccer Stars is growing, and we're hiring energetic, positive, reliable coaches who love working with kids ages 2–10. No experience? No problem — we train you from day one and give you a clear path to raises.
If you want a light, mostly-mornings schedule (5–10 hours/week), tons of high-fives, and a job where you actually make a kid's day — keep reading.
Our coaches typically teach 2–4 classes per morning, each about 25–30 minutes long. You're guaranteed pay for a minimum of 2 classes per morning.
🗓️ What the Schedule Looks Like Every coach's schedule is a little different, but once your weekly classes are set, it stays very consistent. Most classes wrap up before noon (afternoon classes exist but are less common). A sample week might look like:
- Monday — School 1, 9:30am start, ~3 classes
- Tuesday — School 2, 9:30am start, ~2 classes
- Wednesday — School 3, 9:30am start, ~2–3 classes
- Thursday — School 4, 9:30am start, ~4 classes
- Friday — School 5, 9:30am start, ~2 classes
(Sample only — your actual schedule may vary.) - Based on location, we try to keep coaches within 30 minutes of where they reside.
💰 Pay Structure — Transparent & Growing We pay per class with guaranteed raises as you grow. Classes are 25–30 minutes each.
- Junior Coach — $13/class (~$26/hr): Your first 6 months — shadowing, training, and solo teaching with regular check-ins. You'll learn the curriculum, build confidence, and gain experience. Usually after 2-3 weeks, you are teaching on your own but we do regular check ups with the school and pop in visits to ensure quality.
- Lead Coach — $14/class (~$28/hr): Eligible after 6 months of strong performance. You'll run classes independently with reliable communication and solid classroom management.
- Senior Coach (highest level)— $15/class (~$30/hr): Eligible after 12 months of consistent, high-quality coaching. You'll take the lead on larger classes and special programming, and help train new junior coaches. (Must pass all evaluations.)
🎯 What You'll Do
- Teach 25–30 minute classes at preschools and recreation centers
- Run fun, structured activities that build motor skills and confidence
- Follow our age-appropriate Amazing Athletes curriculum
- Set up and clean up light equipment (we provide it)
- Communicate clearly with management and school staff
- Create a safe, engaging, high-energy environment
🙌 Who We're Looking For You'll be a great fit if you're:
- Outgoing, energetic, and love working with kids
- Dependable and professional
- Comfortable leading small groups
- Able to reliably travel between schools
- A great communicator
- Looking for a flexible, part-time schedule
- Are looking for a LONG TERM part-time position. Please do not apply if you are looking for seasonal work.
Experience in coaching, childcare, sports, or teaching is a plus — but not required. We train every coach.
