At Jump Gymnastics, our coaches are the heartbeat of every class. You don’t just follow lesson plans—you turn them into adventures full of movement, laughter, and little moments of magic that help children grow confident, brave, and ready to explore. We develop and guide coaches with patience and energy, model what great coaching looks like, and create a space where families feel welcomed, supported, and part of the fun.

Our Coaching Team is all about showing up, consistently and joyfully, week after week. If you love working with kids, enjoy being active, and aren’t afraid to get a little silly to bring a theme to life, you’ll fit right in.

our coaching team might be perfect for you if…

You love lighting up the gym, leading energetic kids, chatting with parents, and diving headfirst into imaginative play—whether it’s tossing a pizza in Pike, Straddle, or Tuck (if you know, you know!) or guiding tiny ninjas across the beam and through a obstacle course designed just for them. Our best coaches are active, creative, a little bit theatrical, and masters of movement and biomechanics—using their coaching superpowers to help every child move safely, confidently, and joyfully.

what you’ll do

As a coach, your role isn’t just to teach—it’s to lead, inspire, and create magic on the gym floor. You bring gymnastics to life, turning our lesson plans into adventures that get kids moving, laughing, and feeling proud of what they can do. Along the way, you mentor junior coaches, model great coaching, and make sure every child and family feels seen, supported, and excited to be there.

Depending on your experience and training, you will:

- Lead classes with energy, warmth, and confidence
- Deliver fun, engaging, and protected gymnastics experiences for every child
- Spot, coach, and cheer kids on while keeping safety, progress, and participation top of mind
- Connect with parents iclearly, warmly, and confidently
- Help create a positive, team-focused culture and keep every class running smoothly

The most successful coaches are those who don’t just follow the plan—they bring it to life,



turning everyday gymnastics moments into adventures kids—and the whole team—won’t forget. who we’re looking for

This role is ideal for those who want to work in child development and movement while working with children. why coaches love working here

Before I list them all, just know this: we have a long, long list! We'll narrow it down to just a handful, but there's one thing we're especially proud of. Even after decades, our coaches stay connected. Many still stop by just to say hello, and some have been part of our team for decades themselves (looking at you, Coach Bobby!). That says more about our culture than any list of perks ever could. And here’s the list:

- Canada's leader in preschool coach development. Learn from the best through the country's most comprehensive training program for preschool coaches.
- Get paid to learn. We invest in your growth with paid training from day one.
- Turn your passion into a career. Most coaching opportunities are volunteer-based—but not at Jump Gymnastics. Here, you can build a meaningful career doing what you love.
- Join a team that has your back. We celebrate wins, tackle challenges together, and believe every high five counts.
- Coach in a space built just for kids. Our bright,



purpose-designed facilities are created to inspire movement, learning, and fun.
- Make every shift matter. Every class is an opportunity to build confidence, spark joy, and create lifelong memories for the children and families we serve.

Our coaches are at their best when they’re present for the moments that matter most. That’s why this role is centred around afternoons and weekends—the times when our gym is buzzing with energy and our little ones need consistent, caring leadership on the floor. We’re looking for coaches who are not just available for these shifts, but who are genuinely excited to be there—who thrive in the joy and movement of a busy Saturday morning or a packed afternoon with classes.

Consistency is a core part of this role. Our gymnastics programs run on six eight-week terms each year, and our classes are built around routine, familiarity, and trust—values that extend to our coaching team as well. Coaches are expected to show up reliably for their scheduled classes and lead their classes week after week.

This consistency allows you to build meaningful connections with the children and their families, and to witness their growth, confidence, and joy across an entire term—not just in a single class.

This isn’t a role built on picking up occasional shifts. It’s about committing to your schedule, your little ones, and your team, and taking pride in being a steady, dependable presence in the gym.
