Job Description

Benefits:

• 401(k)

• Flexible schedule

BODYBAR Pilates Vista is a locally owned studio opening February 26, 2026, built on high standards, strong instruction, and a collaborative team culture. While we operate within the nationally recognized BODYBAR brand, our Vista location is intentionally hands-on, detail-oriented, and instructor-driven.
At BODYBAR Vista, instructors are expected to:

• Be reliable, prepared, and professional
• Take initiative and manage their responsibilities
• Communicate clearly and respectfully with team members and leadership
• Work collaboratively as part of a team
• Be open to feedback, coaching, and continued growth
• Deliver technically sound, well-run classes every time

Feedback is part of the culture here... not as criticism, but as a tool for consistency and growth. As a founding instructor, you will help shape the studio’s reputation, member experience, and long-term success from day one.
The Opportunity:
We are actively hiring founding instructors for our Vista location and have over 60 weekly class time slots to fill. This means real schedules, real consistency, and strong earning potential.
Founding instructors will have priority access to prime class times, including early mornings, mid-mornings, evenings, and weekends. Training will take place at BODYBAR La Costa, but this role is specifically for instructors joining the Vista studio.
We are also offering limited scholarships for instructors with prior Pilates or group fitness experience.

The BODYBAR Instructor is supervised by the Studio Manager and Owner and is responsible for delivering high-quality Pilates classes using the BODYBAR method while contributing to a positive, professional studio environment.
What You’ll Do:

• Teach safe and effective Pilates-based group fitness classes
• Follow BODYBAR class formats and teaching methodology
• Coach clients on form, alignment, and progressions
• Engage with members before, during, and after class to build community
• Communicate studio policies, class packages, and promotions
• Maintain professionalism and consistency across all classes
• Secure substitutes when unavailable for scheduled classes
  
  

Qualifications:

• Strong passion for health, fitness, and movement
• Excellent communication and interpersonal skills
• Basic knowledge of anatomy and movement principles
• Prior Pilates or fitness teaching experience preferred (not required)
• Willingness to complete BODYBAR Instructor Training and certification
