Hi Elizabeth,
I'm glad to hear you've decided to pursue a job as a trainer and/or instructor. It's the best job ever!

Here are some places to start:

Carol Cannon-Henderson at Next Level Training
carol@nextlevelathletictraining.com
They have a small personal training gym on the corner of 3300 South and 900 East and are looking for trainers for individuals or small groups, working on a 30/70 split (you get 70%) I love that deal.

Mary Carn or Aaron at The Fitness Club at Foothill Village
583-0200
They offer a base rent for trainers of $600 a month (I think) and you can train as much as you want for that, and charge what you want. The downside is you have to do all of your own marketing.

24Hour Fitness director, Pam Mechling
pmechling@24hourfit.com
You have to apply online at 24hourfitness.com, specify the club you want to work at, and then contact Pam if you want to audition to teach group fintess. She is looking for people who teach step, kick boxing, and dance type classes, and who are flexible with times available. It helps is you are willing to teach at several locations.

Good luck, and stay in touch.
Denise
