Certified Pilates Instructor

Welcome to Limber Arts Pilates & Personal Training!

We are looking for a healing oriented Certified Pilates Instructor to join our in-person teaching team.

Limber Arts serves our clients by offering thoughtful and intelligent movement experiences, with a focus on helping those who struggle with chronic pain, nagging injuries, or stress so that they can age like a badass and live an adventurous life at any age.

Our in-person studio currently offers small group classes of up to 5 people and private or semi private sessions. The studio is located on the second floor and is only accessible via one flight of stairs, which does impose a limit on accessibility.

We live into our mission of healing by prioritizing self-care among our team members and building a healthy work culture.

We make decisions based on the following values:

• Drive for curiosity and knowledge: We strive to work from a place of curiosity and openness and actively avoid falling into patterns of rote behavior, assumption, or dogma. Our approach to pilates and personal training is highly informed by cutting edge knowledge and a commitment to continued education and growth. We offer team members opportunities for continued education and skill sharing.
• Liberation for All: We are an inclusive, anti-racist, body-positive, lgbtq friendly business that prides itself for creating a welcoming environment for all. We are committed to continuing to discover how we can make our space more welcoming to folks with marginalized identities.
• Safe, skillful and clear communication. We practice clear, direct, and compassionate communication amongst all members of the team, and regularly give and receive feedback both to and from our supervisors.
• Alignment based work culture: We are skilled at helping employees discover their areas of genius and then adjusting and developing their position to help them grow into these skills. We help our team members master skill sets that interest them and build their resumes in the direction they want to go.

We are currently seeking a teacher with at least 5 hours of availability during these times:

Thursdays 1:30 - 6:15 pm
