Physical Culture Brooklyn, formerly known as OPEX Brooklyn, was founded in 2019. In a world dominated by screens, we champion the return to a Physical Culture. We teach our clients timeless principles for building a strong, healthy body and mind.

Role Description

This is a full-time on-site role as a Health & Performance Coach located in Brooklyn, NY. As a Health & Performance Coach, you will be responsible coaching clients during open gym, building personalized training and lifestyle programs, and managing your own roster of clients.

Who We're Looking For

A Health & Performance Coach who practices what they preach. Training isn’t just a luxury for you—it’s a necessity. The health and fitness industry is full of hobbyists; people moonlighting as coaches, merely counting reps, shouting motivations, and making people tired. But being tired doesn’t change lives—professional coaches do. You've experienced how being a High Performer has transformed your life, and you're eager to share that gift.

As a coach, you’re on the frontlines of preventative healthcare. A great coach can significantly alter someone's life trajectory. You wear the title of coach with honor and integrity, constantly mastering your craft and reinvesting in education. You're a problem solver, role model, educator, and exactly what your clients need. You’re a missionary, committed to helping our clients improve their lives.

You believe in the mission and vision of Physical Culture and prioritize the collective over individual gains. You value teamwork, understanding that while solo efforts might be quick, collaboration takes you further. You want to be surrounded by other high-caliber professionals who move with purpose, intent, and energy. You bring solutions, not problems, and continuously raise the standard by focusing on processes over outcomes.

You communicate effectively, setting appropriate boundaries with clients, colleagues, and ownership. You establish clear expectations and consistently deliver on your promises. You're highly self-accountable, view critical feedback as a learning opportunity, and know how to compartmentalize personal and professional relationships. You're a winner, both in and out of the gym, and you inspire excellence in others.
