Pilates Instructor Jobs near you

Are you a certified Pilates instructor looking for a flexible way to earn money outside of a traditional studio setting? Airtasker is a great platform to connect with clients who want personalised Pilates sessions in their own homes, at a local park, or even online. Whether you’re a qualified professional with years of experience or a passionate instructor looking to build your client base, you can find a variety of Pilates instructor jobs that fit your schedule. With the freedom to set your own rates and choose the jobs you want, it’s a perfect solution for building a new income stream or turning your passion into a full-time business.

On Airtasker, you’re not just a class instructor; you can be a private coach, a personal trainer, or a specialist for a variety of unique events. Here are some of the most common types of Pilates jobs you can take on.

Private, one-on-one sessions

Many clients are looking for a private Pilates instructor to come to their home for a personalised workout. This is a great way to earn money because you can tailor each session to the client’s specific needs, whether they’re a beginner, a senior, or a new mum looking to rebuild strength after giving birth. Some clients might be NDIS participants with funding for a personal trainer who can teach Pilates. You can also earn extra by offering your services for a specific type of workout, like reformer Pilates, which often requires you to travel to a home with a machine or a client who has their own. These jobs are perfect for securing high-ticket income from a single session.

Group classes for special events

You can also find opportunities to run group sessions for special events like hens’ parties, team-building activities, or staff bonding sessions. These jobs often involve a one-off class at a specific location, such as a beach, a park, or a rented studio. These tasks often pay well and are a great way to meet new people and showcase your skills to a larger audience. For example, a recent task involved running a class on the beach for a hens’ party, while another was for a puppy Pilates class. These are great casual jobs that can provide a significant boost to your income. You can find these kinds of jobs on the group fitness jobs page.

Ongoing and long-term gigs

One of the best ways to build a steady income on Airtasker is by securing ongoing, long-term jobs. Many clients want a regular instructor for a weekly or fortnightly session. You might also find opportunities to run a weekly group class for a company or even provide relief for a gym or studio that needs a temporary instructor. Building these relationships is key to creating a predictable and stable income stream. With ongoing work, you can turn a side hustle into a consistent and reliable source of money.

Online and virtual tutoring

For maximum flexibility, you can offer online or virtual Pilates classes. This allows you to teach students from anywhere and is a convenient option for clients with busy schedules or those who prefer to exercise in the comfort of their own home. Online classes are a great way to diversify your client base and can be offered as either a live session or a pre-recorded workout. This type of remote work is perfect for fitting in extra sessions without the need to travel, making it a highly efficient way to earn money.

Tips to increase your Pilates instructor income

To maximise your earnings as a Pilates instructor, it helps to be professional, well-prepared, and a great communicator.

First, having the right certifications is a huge plus. While not always required for every task, many clients prefer to hire a certified instructor. Make sure to highlight any relevant qualifications you have on your profile, such as a Pilates certification or a Certificate III/IV in fitness. You can also stand out by providing your own equipment, like mats, for group classes, as some customers are looking for an instructor who can provide everything they need.

Another great tip is to ask for reviews. Positive feedback is your best marketing tool on Airtasker. By providing a great session and a professional service, you can build a strong reputation that makes it easier to secure future jobs and repeat business.
