On any given day you might be working with a 3 year old helping to manage their big emotions, followed by an energetic class of ninjas and finishing with some talented gymnasts that are working on their routines for competitions. No day is the same and it will keep you fit and healthy, moving, lifting and showing basic gymnastics skills. No hours upon hours at the desk here!

There is some flexibility of shift days, with a current schedule of working Saturdays. Your schedule is stable with changes only happening annually.
