DAO Strength is seeking a motivated, skilled, and growth-minded trainer to join our team. This is an opportunity to work with a diverse clientele—from everyday individuals and busy professionals to high-level athletes and rehab clients—while growing into a leadership role and helping to expand the business.

At DAO, we believe in training with purpose—not just for aesthetics but for strength, longevity, and optimal movement. We blend scientific principles, strength training, movement assessments, and advanced recovery techniques to deliver results-driven coaching for clients at all fitness levels. Whether it’s helping a weekend warrior stay injury-free, a parent regain strength, a professional improve energy levels, or an athlete maximize performance, this is a place where trainers can make a real impact.

Why This Role is Unique:

• Built-In Growth Opportunity: Work directly with DAO’s founder & performance specialist to help develop new programs, partnerships, and expansion efforts.
• Work with a Diverse Clientele: Train athletes, professionals, weekend warriors, rehab clients, and general fitness clients in a goal-driven training environment.
• More Than Just Personal Training: Integrate strength & conditioning, movement optimization, and recovery techniques into training programs.
• Business Development Potential: If you want to grow your career beyond just coaching, this role offers an opportunity to expand into partnership opportunities.

What We Offer:

• Competitive Pay
• No Overhead Costs: Build your cash-based training practice without monthly expenses
• Flexible Hours: Set your own schedule while growing your client base
• Built-In Clientele: Work with motivated clients who seek expert coaching
• Ongoing Learning: Gain experience in movement science, biomechanics, and recovery techniques
• Opportunities for Advancement: Grow into a leadership or partnership role as the business expands

What We’re Looking For:

• Certified Personal Trainer (NSCA-CSCS, NASM, ACSM, or equivalent preferred)
• Passion for Training All Levels of Clients – Ability to coach general fitness clients, professionals, weekend warriors, and high-level athletes
• Experience in Strength & Conditioning or Athletic Performance (Preferred but Not Required)
• Soft Tissue Experience
• Knowledge of Movement Science & Biomechanics: This is NOT a "big box gym" personal training job
• Ability to Coach Both Strength & Functional Training: We focus on performance, injury prevention, and longevity
• Experience with Recovery & Mobility Techniques (or willingness to learn – cupping, red light therapy, compression, etc.)
• Strong Coaching & Communication Skills: Must be able to connect with clients and build long-term training relationships
• Entrepreneurial Mindset: A coach who wants to grow a business and help expand DAO Strength

Position Details:

• Contract role: Work when clients are scheduled
• Expected hours: 15-30 per week (with potential to grow into a full-time leadership role)
