YOUR IMPACT
This position supports the work of the Y, a leading nonprofit, charitable organization committed to strengthening community through youth development, healthy living and social responsibility. At the Y, we purposefully engage members throughout their health and wellness journeys. Aqua fitness is one of many ways the Y support members on their path to achieving health and wellness goals. The Aqua Fitness Instructor teaches class in a safe, enjoyable, and positive environment that promotes member wellness and engagement in accordance with YMCA policies and procedures.

WHAT YOUR DAY MAY LOOK LIKE
No two days are the same in this role - but every day centers on bringing energy to the pool, motivating members, and creating fun, safe, and welcoming aquatic fitness experiences.
  • Lead energizing, safe, and engaging aquatic group exercise classes that support YMCA wellness goals
  • Motivate participants and answer questions to help members reach healthy living goals
  • Build authentic relationships and create a strong sense of community in every class
  • Foster a noncompetitive, inclusive environment where all participants feel welcome
  • Adapt workouts to different fitness levels and provide modifications regularly
  • Keep classes fresh and engaging with varied music, movement, and programming
  • Maintain accurate attendance records for scheduled classes
  • Secure qualified substitutes when needed and communicate schedule changes promptly
  • Attend trainings and meetings to stay current on fitness trends and best practices
  • Follow YMCA policies, respond to emergencies, and assist lifeguards as directed
If you love leading from the front, enjoy motivating others in the water, and want to help members have fun while getting fit - this role is for you.
