Job details

We're accepting applications now and will begin active recruitment in September/October 2026. Altea is not another big box gym. It is not a boutique studio. It is an integrated fitness and wellness destination, and the Pace Studio is one of the most consistently packed rooms in the building. Cycle at Altea is beat-based, music-driven, and coach-led. Choreography, endurance climbs, and all-out sprints are synced to the track in a purpose-built room with immersive sound and lighting. The format lives or dies with the instructor. We are looking for the one who makes it live. WHAT YOU'LL DO * Deliver structured, immersive cycle classes with a clear energy arc, intentional intervals, and coaching that keeps riders engaged from warm-up to the final track. * Build the ride around the music. Choreography, endurance climbs, and all-out sprints are synced to the playlist. Your music selection and ride design work together to create a complete experience, not just a workout. * Coach effort, not just movement. You translate RPE, cadence, and resistance into language every rider can use in real time. You help people understand what they are training for, not just what they are doing. * Build the room. The energy in the Pace Studio is contagious when the instructor makes it that way. You know how to build momentum, read the energy, and make every rider feel like they were in the right place. * Show up prepared. Your playlist is built, your ride is planned, and you are on the bike before the first rider clips in. The pre and post class sequence is delivered to standard every time. WHO YOU ARE Magnetic on the bike. Credible in the coaching. The person who walks into a full Pace Studio and makes every rider feel like the class was built specifically for them. * You are a real coach. You cue cadence and resistance with specificity. You know the difference between pushing someone and coaching them, and you do the latter. * You are coachable. Feedback is how the program stays excellent. You receive it without ego and apply it. * You are consistent. Your standard does not change based on how full the room is or what time it is. * You are professional. You represent Altea in the studio and throughout the club with pride and polish. WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR * Current cycling certification required * Demonstrated experience teaching group cycle classes in a premium or studio environment * Strong playlist building, energy management, and cueing ability in an immersive group setting * Beat-based and performance format experience are both assets * Reliable, punctual, and holds a consistently high standard of preparation and professionalism * Criminal Background Check required prior to commencement WHAT YOU'LL EARN This role is compensated at a level that reflects the standard we hold and the calibre of person we are looking for. All rates of pay are confidential. * Complimentary individual Altea membership * Career defining growth and development opportunities within a rapidly expanding Canadian brand We are an equal opportunity employer and believe in treating everyone fairly regardless of race, ancestry, place of origin, colour, ethnic origin, national origin, language, citizenship, creed, religion, sex, sexual orientation, age, marital status, gender identity, gender expression, record of offences, disability, or any other legally protected factors.
