About PulseHaus Studios PulseHaus Studios is a mat Pilates and movement studio in downtown Haverhill, opening August 24, 2026. We're built around rhythm, precision, and presence — classes pair technical Pilates instruction with curated soundscapes in an intentionally designed space. We offer both heated and non-heated class formats. As a new studio, our instructors help shape how we teach, how we sound, and how we build community.

What You'll Do

• Lead 45–50 minute mat Pilates classes for groups of up to 20 participants
• Teach in both heated and non-heated formats
• Deliver clear, precise verbal and tactile cueing with emphasis on alignment, control, and safe progression
• Program classes to the music — pacing, transitions, and energy are structural to how we teach
• Offer modifications and progressions across experience levels, from Foundations to advanced
• Recognize and respond appropriately to heat-related distress in heated classes
• Set up and reset the studio space before and after class

Qualifications

• Current mat Pilates certification from a recognized program (Balanced Body, BASI, STOTT, Power Pilates, Peak Pilates, or comparable)
• Current CPR/AED certification, or willingness to obtain before your first class
• Strong grasp of anatomy, alignment, and contraindications
• Comfortable instructing in heated conditions
• Confident, calm presence in front of a group of 20
• Reliable availability for a consistent weekly schedule
• Must be at least 18 years of age

Nice to Have

• Experience programming or teaching to music
• Heated fitness format experience (hot yoga, heated barre, heated sculpt)
• Barre, sculpt, mobility, or stretch instruction background
• Bilingual (Spanish, Haitian Creole, or Portuguese)

Engagement Terms This is an independent contractor position. Instructors are paid $30.00-$45.00 per class taught, on a biweekly schedule. Contractors are responsible for their own taxes; a completed IRS Form W-9 is required before the first class. Instructors set their own teaching methodology within the studio's class formats and are not supervised in the delivery of instruction.
