Tired of Hustling for Gigs? Here’s How Fitgig Solves Every Instructor’s Biggest Problem
Introduction
Let’s be real — being a fitness instructor isn’t always as flexible and free as it sounds. You're juggling WhatsApp groups, last-minute subs, inconsistent income, and DMs from random studios asking, “Can you cover tonight?” And if you’ve ever tried moving cities or traveling while teaching… good luck.
Enter Fitgig — the platform designed specifically to fix all of that. Whether you're a Pilates pro, yoga instructor, Spin coach, or even a sauna master, Fitgig is built to give you freedom, structure, and better opportunities — without the burnout.
The Real Pain Points Instructors Face
- ❌“My schedule is all over the place.” – You teach 6 classes one week, 2 the next. Clients cancel. Studios ghost you. It’s impossible to plan your life.
- ❌“I don’t know where to find gigs — or who to trust.” – Most jobs come from word of mouth or vague Instagram posts. There's no central hub, and definitely no guarantee of payment or professionalism.
- ❌“I want to travel, but I can’t just show up somewhere without work.” – You dream of doing a summer in Barcelona or a winter in Lisbon — but unless you know someone there, it’s a risk.
- ❌“Studios want experience, but I need gigs to get experience.” – It’s a chicken-and-egg problem — and it keeps new instructors stuck.
