Do what it takes/Don’t be Lazy

Volume Beats Luck

We Set the Standards High, and Cut out What isn't Working

Our team is not a family, we’re a team that is dependent on the performance of everyone. All of our Shapesmiths are vetted in an apprenticeship that lasts between 6 weeks (if they start with a certification already) and one year.

We cover the costs of many of your certifications, we evaluate your progress weekly, and we hold meetings about how well everyone is performing informally and formally on a regular basis.

This is a place where you will work hard, where anyone who raises the bar of expectations for themself raises it for the whole team, where one person’s actions reflect the team’s reputation, where a no-show gets you fired on the spot, where you will be evaluated transparently and weekly, and

where you will learn a ton about fitness and about being a coach in the process. You will grow here, you will make an above market wage, and you will have a huge impact on the future of the business should you be found to be a good fit.

If all that sounds good, sign up. We are ALWAYS hiring.

The Bjorn Team

AL KODAMA

Founder and total nerd

Al, the owner of Bjorn Fitness, began his fitness journey upon getting diagnosed with an autoimmune disease. After briefly looking into bodybuilding, he decided his fitness approach would be more about longevity and feeling better in his own body. He holds a Flexible Steel certification and will add two more certs under his belt by September. He has been coaching friends and clients since 2019.
