Virtual Reality Fitness Coach (Box / Combat/ HIIT) - Contractor
FitXR is a fitness technology company working at the cutting edge of VR and MR, building a movement for movement. We started life in 2016 in a garden shed in the UK. Today, we're building FitXR, one of the top-downloaded apps on the Meta Quest store. We've raised close to $30m from top investors such as Maveron, Hiro, and BoostVC.
We've built a growing range of fitness studios, from box workouts with world-class trainers like Olympian Nicola Adams to immersive Zumba dance classes. While nothing compares to trying it yourself, you can watch a trailer here .
Our team is distributed across Europe and the US. We're guided by our Principles of Play: four core beliefs about how we treat each other and our community. We make space for every voice, believe in the importance of a learner's mindset, and prioritize team success over individual glory.
FitXR is available on Meta Quest 2 & 3 and has been downloaded by over a million people worldwide and featured in Forbes, Empire, T3, Washington Post, Men's Health, GQ and more. In 2022, FitXR ranked 6th in The Information's 50 Most Promising Startups . Content Team @ FitXR : The Content Team is responsible for delivering effective and fun classes for our community to play. We cover everything from programming the workouts to playlist selection to creating the game you actually see on the platform. The Fitness team specifically focuses on assuring quality programming and coaching from our instructors. We want members to feel successful and accomplished, and like FitXR helps them achieve a healthy lifestyle. TLDR Our instructor's role is to make members feel the same excitement, encouragement, and success they would find in an in-person fitness class, in a VR fitness class. They act as the face and voice of the brand on socials. The average workload is about 8-10 hours per week and is 100% remote (except for photoshoots and social events).
Instructors work closely with our Audio Engineer and Fitness Programming & Performance Manager to record and perform class scripts.
