Come and join the Beyond team as a

Pilates Fitness Instructor

Location: Tauranga
Contractor

The Role

At Beyond, we combine physiotherapy and gym-based training to help people move well, build strength, and stay active. We aren't a massive commercial facility—we focus on high-quality coaching, injury prevention, and building a solid, supportive community.

Our Physios and Trainers work closely together so our members get real, long-term results. To make sure clients get proper attention rather than getting lost in a crowd, we keep class numbers strictly capped:

  • Reformer Pilates: Capped at 4 per class
  • Mat / Floor Classes: Capped at 12 per class

We’re looking for a qualified, reliable Pilates Instructor to join our team on an independent contractor basis and take over regular class slots.

What the Role Involves

  • Instructing Small Groups: Run structured, safe, and effective Mat and Reformer classes that challenge members while focusing on movement quality.
  • Individual Coaching: Make the most of our small class caps by cueing well, correcting technique, and modifying exercises for clients managing injuries or niggles.
  • Clinic Collaboration: Work alongside our physiotherapists to support clients transitioning from clinical rehab into group training.
  • Client Care: Greet members, check for any relevant physical limitations before class, and maintain a professional, approachable studio environment.
  • Studio Standards: Ensure reformers and equipment are wiped down, reset, and kept in good order between sessions.

What We’re Looking For

  • Qualifications: Recognized certification in Mat and/or Reformer Pilates (e.g., APPI, Polestar, STOTT, or equivalent).
  • Strong Eye for Movement: Good understanding of biomechanics, with the ability to regress or progress exercises on the fly.
  • Professional & Grounded: Reliable, clear communicator who can run a fun, focused class without the over-the-top fluff.
  • Contractor Essentials: Current Professional Indemnity & Public Liability insurance, First Aid/CPR cert, and an NZBN for invoicing.
  • Advantageous: Experience working alongside allied health professionals, or knowledge of pre/post-natal adaptations.

Why Join Us

  • Real Coaching: With 4 on reformers and 12 on the mat, you actually get to teach and correct movement, not just manage room traffic.
  • Integrated Environment: Be part of a multidisciplinary team where physios and trainers collaborate and refer to each other.
  • Flexibility: Regular rostered class blocks that can easily fit alongside your existing client base or schedule.
