- Collaborate with Core Moves physical therapists to transition clients from rehabilitation into independent movement and long-term wellness.
- Foster an encouraging, welcoming environment where clients feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout their care.
- Monitor client progress and communicate observations with the clinical team when appropriate.
- Assist with developing specialty classes, workshops, wellness programming, and community education events.

- Provide light administrative support, including scheduling assistance, client communication, and front desk coverage as needed.
- Prepare and maintain studio equipment and treatment spaces to ensure a clean, organized, and professional environment.

Preferred
- Experience teaching both private Pilates sessions and small group classes.

- Background in rehabilitation, physical therapy, exercise science, kinesiology, athletic training, dance, or a related field.
