At Seattle Gymnastics Academy, we operate programs under three types of categories: Play, Learn and Compete. Our Compete program is intended for gymnasts who have already experienced and progressed in our Learn (recreational) program, and have shown interest and aptitude to advance to a competitive experience, and have a coach referral.
We currently have an exciting opportunity in our Xcel Program, for an experienced Coach to lead our Xcel Team at SGA - Lake City 28th.
A well-established team, our site leader and program leaders will work closely with a successful candidate to train, and work in tandem to create a positive addition for the whole team, athletes and coach alike.
SGA is committed to an environment that is safe, leads with positive reinforcement, and teaches skills in progressive manner. A successful Head Coach will have an equal commitment to upholding these standards for our competitive team.
SGA offers:
- A priority for a work/life balance. We have closures and breaks for most holidays and / or school breaks, so that both our gymnasts and staff are able to spend time with family and friends and relax.

SGA Coaches are responsible for:
- Teaching progressive gymnastics classes in our Xcel Program. Many of our instructors work in multiple departments, teaching a wide range of ages and levels. SGA Team Coaches demonstrate a commitment to a safe, positive environment where our athletes can compete, develop, and flourish.
- Creating your own lesson plans and tracking skill development. We provide the resources, but you get to be creative in how you want to teach your gymnasts. We offer state of the art equipment – both on the gymnastics floor and technology- so you have the tools you need to be successful.
- Communicating with SGA parents about their child’s progression in your classes. Our coaches play a key role in their development as a child and as an athlete.
