- Adapt instruction to suit a range of ages, abilities, and experience levels




- Provide individualized feedback to support skill development and confidence
- Promote a positive and inclusive training environment focused on growth and safety
- Supervise campers during activities, transitions, and breaks to ensure safety and appropriate behaviour
- Assist with daily camp setup, cleanup, and equipment organization
- Build positive relationships with campers, families, and TAC Sports staff
- Follow TAC Sports’ program plans, safety procedures, and child supervision standards at all times

Qualifications

- Experience working with children in camps, sports programs, or martial arts settings
- Background in martial arts (e.g., MMA, boxing, kickboxing, Brazilian jiu-jitsu, or similar disciplines)
- Ability to teach techniques in a safe, controlled, and age-appropriate manner
- Strong understanding of safety protocols and proper training methods
- Energetic, patient, and confident leading groups in an active environment
- Strong communication, leadership, and teamwork skills
- Ability to create a disciplined yet fun and encouraging atmosphere
- Coaching or instructional experience in martial arts is an asset

- First Aid/CPR certification and Vulnerable Sector Check, or willingness to obtain them, preferred
