    “The most exciting acting tends to happen in roles you never thought you could play.” – John Lithgow

    So, maybe you don’t see yourself as a “9-5” type (unless we’re talking about the musical). If we’re being honest, neither do we! We are My Gym Children’s Fitness Center – the ultimate children’s fitness and developmental activity center – and we get to work and play all day… in a T-shirt and socks!!

    Do you love kids, being generally silly, and acting for very receptive and adorable audiences? Then My Gym might be the right place for you!

    Are you…

    The life of the party?

    Frequently found at the kids table (which is the best place to be anyway)?

    A dancer, actor, singer, or athlete?

    Outgoing, upbeat, and positive?

    Someone who takes direction well?

    Interested in a flexible weekday schedule that will allow your job to work into your life?

    Available to work weekends? (We throw wonderful, memorable birthday parties year-round.)

    Available for our weekly meeting and training on Tuesdays 12:00-4:00 (paid!)

    Willing to really grow with us (and the kids!) and can commit to at least a year of employment?

    If you feel we probably wrote this about you as a funny character assessment, you may be the right person for us and My Gym may be just the right job for you! As a teacher, you’ll be working with children ranging from 4 months to 10 years of age, teaching programs that incorporate songs, dances, puppet shows, beginning gymnastics skills, sports, games, and a variety of other unique and exciting activities in a positive, noncompetitive, fun environment. We provide the amazing curriculum and training!
