About J Fitness and Training

At J Fitness and Training, we specialize in functional fitness, injury prevention, and working with clients who have complex needs -- including hypermobility (hEDS) . As one of only two practitioners in Western Canada certified in the Integrated Movement Method (IMM), we are proud to offer expertise that few others can. Our mission is simple: help people move better, feel stronger, and take control of their health.

Role Overview

We are looking for a motivated Contract Personal Trainer to join our team. This is not your typical gym trainer role -- you'll work directly with clients who often have unique movement needs, while also learning advanced strategies for training hypermobile populations.

This role is ideal for a trainer who:

Has their personal training certification (required). Wants hands-on mentorship in working with complex populations. Is eager to learn advanced methods for long-term client health. Sees themselves building their own business in the future.
You will receive guidance and mentorship directly from Jay Rotteveel, Human Movement Specialist and 3x Community Votes "Best Personal Trainer" award winner.

Responsibilities

Deliver personal training sessions with clients (1:1 and/or small group). Apply safe, functional movement practices with modifications for hypermobile clients. Collaborate with Jay to develop tailored client programs. Learn and integrate principles of the Integrative Movement Method (IMM). Communicate clearly with clients to ensure trust, safety, and progress. Work independently while also being open to mentorship.
Requirements

Current Personal Training Certification (CSEP, ACE, NASM, CanFitPro, etc.). Strong interest in functional fitness and injury prevention. Openness to learning specialized methods for hypermobility. Professional, reliable, and client-focused. Entrepreneurial mindset -- this role is designed to help you grow into your own business leader.
What We Offer

Direct mentorship in a highly specialized niche (hypermobility & functional fitness). Flexible, contract-based scheduling. Opportunity to build your own client base and brand with support. Access to unique training knowledge that very few trainers in Canada possess. Growth into becoming your own boss -- not just another trainer in a gym.
