Crunch Fitness is coming and we are looking for energetic, enthusiastic people that are passionate about health and fitness to join our rapidly growing team!
The Hot Stuff Instructor Role
The Hot Stuff Instructor is the heart and soul of Hot Stuff Studio, guiding our members through heated, detoxifying, and empowering classes. Fusing traditional yoga, pilates, and strength principles with Crunch’s signature high-energy culture, you will lead dynamic classes designed for core strength, flexibility, and a detoxifying sweat. Responsible for creating a safe, welcoming, and inclusive atmosphere, you will inspire members of all levels—from beginners to seasoned practitioners—under our "No Judgments" philosophy.
What You’ll Be Doing:
- Leading Hot Stuff Studio Classes: Instruct engaging, high-quality heated classes following signature Crunch formats like Hot Yoga Flow, Hot Pilates Mat, Hot Core, and Yoga Body Sculpt.
- Cultivating an Incredible Studio Vibe: Create a warm, energizing, and mindful class environment with curated music playlists, clear verbal cueing, and inspiring leadership.
- Member Coaching & Safety: Demonstrate proper alignment, offer adjustments, and provide modifications and progressions for all body types and skill levels in a heated environment.
- Studio & Temperature Management: Prepare Hot Stuff Studio prior to class by setting infrared heating controls to safe, optimal temperatures, managing lighting, ensuring humidity systems are ready, and resetting the studio post-class.
What Makes the Room Special:
- The "Sweet Spot" Heat: Powered by infrared technology, the room stays at a steady 105°F with 40% humidity, warming the muscles directly for deeper detox and increased flexibility without feeling stifling.
- The "Barefoot" Vibe: A strictly barefoot, mat-based environment that keeps the energy grounded and the studio pristine.
- High-Performance Atmosphere: Combining heart-pumping music with an inclusive "No Judgments" energy, the Hot Stuff room is where intensity meets recovery.
The Ideal Hot Stuff Instructor
We’re looking for a high-energy "fitness entertainer" who thrives in a fast-paced, heated environment. You aren't just leading a workout; you’re commanding the room and curating a vibe that makes the sweat feel like a celebration.
You’re the perfect fit if:
- You’re a Heat Seeker: You have the physical stamina to coach, demonstrate, and motivate for 45 minutes in a 105°F/40% humidity environment without losing your spark.
- You’re a Master of the "Fusion": You can seamlessly blend the precision of strength training with the flow of rhythmic movement, ensuring every beat and every rep counts.
- You’re a Vibe Curator: You know how to use music and your voice to create an immersive experience that keeps members engaged even when the intensity peaks.
- Safety is Your Second Nature: You are highly attentive to participant form and "heat fatigue," ensuring every member pushes their limits safely and stays hydrated.
Qualifications & Experience:
Certified Pro: Current Nationally Accredited Group Fitness or Personal Training Certification, or Yoga Alliance RYT-200 / Pilates Certification. CPR/AED certification required.
Versatile Background: You have a proven track record of leading classes in at least one (or several!) of the following areas:
- Yoga & Pilates: To bring flow, breath control, and mindful alignment to the heat.
- Strength & Core: To lead members through high-tension, muscle-sculpting movements.
- Stretch: To facilitate the recovery and flexibility benefits unique to the infrared environment.
Heat Experience: Previous experience teaching in heated studios is a plus, but NOT REQUIRED!
Schedule Flexibility: Ability to work early mornings, evenings, or weekends to teach scheduled classes and sub as needed.
