Kids Athletics Coach

Kids Athletics Coach — Ninja Gym - Loveland 

For most of our kids, this is their first sport.

Before soccer tryouts, before the swim team, before any of it — they're here. Learning to run, jump, climb, hang, and land. You'll teach them the athletic building blocks everything else gets built on, and you'll be one of the first coaches they ever have. Kids remember that coach. You get to be that person a few times a week.

We're a ninja obstacle gym for kids 12 and under. No ninja experience needed — we'll train you on all of it.

What you'll do

  • Lead classes for kids ages 3–12 — demo the obstacles, coach technique, keep the energy up
  • Teach the fundamentals: balance, coordination, grip strength, safe landings, body control
  • Keep every kid safe and every kid included
  • Talk with parents at pickup about what their kid worked on that day
  • Run birthday parties and special events like Parents' Night Out
  • Sanitize equipment after class and help with setup and teardown

What we're looking for

  • You genuinely like kids and can hold the attention of eight five-year-olds
  • Comfortable being active — you're on the floor demonstrating the whole shift
  • Reliable and on time
  • Any athletic background helps (gymnastics, cheer, climbing, martial arts, dance, team sports) but is not required
  • CPR/First Aid is a plus — we'll help you get certified if you don't have it

Training
We teach you how to run a class, how to coach a skill, how to spot safely, and how to handle a birthday party. Show up coachable and we'll do the rest. Paid training.

Good fit if you're studying
Education, kinesiology, exercise science, athletic training, physical therapy, occupational therapy, nursing, recreation, or psychology — this is documented hands-on experience with children in a coaching and safety role. It's the kind of thing that gives you something real to talk about in an interview or a grad school application. Also a great fit if you just want a job where you move around instead of sitting at a desk.
