Careers
Join the Team at LFS
At Lapine Fitness Studio (LFS), we’re not just another gym. We’re a small group personal training studio in Brooklyn on a mission to deliver the best training experience in the city.
We’re looking for driven, people-first coaches to help us change the game for everyday people who want to feel strong, move well, and transform their lives.
Why LFS?
- No floor hours — just show up and coach (no selling required).
- Set shifts — no more scattered mornings, afternoons, and evenings.
- A true team environment — your voice and input matter here.
- Professional development built in — we invest in our coaches’ the same way we invest in our members’ progress.
- Room to grow with us — as the studio expands, so do your opportunities.
What We’re Looking For
- Strong communication skills and empathetic humans. Most of our members are fitness newbies, and we need coaches who can teach them, while helping them feel confident and supported.
- People skills and personality. You should genuinely enjoy making training the best part of someone’s day.
- Energy and presence. Our members should feel your attention, focus, and enthusiasm every time you step on the floor.
- Professionalism. We’ll teach you our systems and standards, but respect, care, and integrity must come from you.
- Reliability. Show up prepared, on time, and consistent.
- Team player. Coaching at LFS isn’t a solo gig — you’ll collaborate, share ideas, and help elevate the whole team.
- Growth mindset. We expect our members to improve week after week, and we expect the same from our coaches. You should be excited to learn, adapt, and sharpen your craft.

New to Coaching? No Problem.
You do NOT need to be a certified trainer or have coaching experience to apply.
We’re willing to develop the right individual. If they are willing to put the time in (coaches with no experience can expect a 3-4 month onboarding process before they start coaching sessions)
Who This Isn’t For
This opportunity isn’t for you if:
- You’re just looking to “fill gaps” in your training schedule, we are looking for coaches who want to be a part of a growing team.
- You’re stuck in your training beliefs and not open to learning. Our coaches have a voice here, but we all follow LFS training methodologies so members get the same world-class experience every time.
- You don’t take a service-first approach or treat every single interaction with care and respect.
- You want to work in a place where coaching is “just a job” not a place to grow and develop
- You’re not willing to pull in the same direction as the rest of the team
What You’ll Do
- Coach small group training sessions with energy and care.
- Build relationships that keep members coming back.
- Handle pre/post shift duties and help keep the studio running smoothly.
- Attend weekly team meetings.
- Build member workout programs
- Contribute to a community and culture that feels like more than just a gym.
Perks & Benefits
- Continuing education
- Mentorship and professional development support
- Free gym access
- Discounted spousal or partner memberships
