Want to join the Group Personal Training team? Read on.

Bang is a Toronto-based personal training studio specializing in small-group personal training, strength education, and long-term development. We work with people who want expert coaching, a calm environment, and training that will have a positive impact on how they move and engage with exercise for the rest of their lives.

Group Personal Training (GPT) offers a 5-1 member to coach ratio, which requires you to develop expert skills in coaching, cueing, and program design. However, Rome and/or great Romanian deadlifts aren’t built in a day, so we help you build those skills over time. Here, coaches typically work in blocks of four hours.

1-1 has a great deal in common with GPT but scheduling can vary quite a bit more. We work with independant personal trainers whose values align with ours.

We excel at working with brand new exercisers, post-rehab (people who have been through a formal rehab process but still need support), and folks who are looking to develop a personally meaningful exercise practice. Those interested in athletic development are also expected to develop the skills to work with competitive athletes.

Who thrives here?

Strong candidates may be:

• Curious about strength training, movement, and coaching craft
• Comfortable working with beginners, not just athletes
• Capable of thinking in months in years, instead of just days and weeks
• Lifelong learners who are generous with their knowledge
• Patient, observant, and detail-oriented
• Open to feedback and ongoing development
• Persistent in creating a calm, inclusive, and friendy-but-focused training environment
