We Are Hiring

We are looking for a competent, fun, kind, and outgoing Strength and Fitness Coach (working with both adults and youths) to join our pro team.

 

This is a huge opportunity for anyone who is passionate about working with kids and teens. If you do not have a strong desire to work with kids and teens then please do not apply.

 

About Freedom Fitness

 

A strength studio like no other, Freedom Fitness runs small group coaching sessions for adults, teens, kids, and new mums. We pride ourselves on our welcoming, non-intimidating and inclusive environment we've created. Our philosophy is a simple one. Get strong to be strong, and to live a longer, fuller, and better quality life.

 

​We don't take ourselves too seriously in Freedom Fitness, but we take what we do extremely serious. The ability to create a positive environment for our members to both train and thrive in is non-negotiable. A genuine passion for fitness and helping people of all ages and abilities to develop their physical abilities, self-confidence, and overall health, is a must.

 

About Our Youth Gym

 

The work we do in the gym is not just for the sake of the youths physical health and strength, but it also contributes hugely towards building confidence, mental resilience, self esteem, and an overall positive body image.

 

We absolutely love to see how progress in the gym can help to make progress in other areas of their lives outside of the gym. Especially for our youth, when it comes to building confidence and self esteem.

 

We want everyone who walks through our doors to leave more confident than when they walked in. Oh and in a better mood too!
