Elemental 5 · Salida, Colorado

Exceptional Coaching Is Elemental.

At Elemental 5, coaches do more than teach movement. They help students build strength, adaptability, courage, awareness, and mastery through acrobatics, parkour, trampoline, aerial, and ninja-style training.

What You’re Considering

This is not just
a coaching job.

A role built around human development.

A coaching role at Elemental 5 means helping kids grow through movement. Some days that means teaching a cartwheel, spotting a skill, running a warm-up, managing a group, or helping a nervous student try again.

You do not need to know everything on day one. But you do need to care about learning, leading, and becoming the kind of person students can trust.

The Five Elements of Coaching

The elements behind
exceptional coaching.

Earth
Structure

Safety, consistency, boundaries, rhythm, and trust. Earth is the coach’s ability to create a stable training environment.

Water
Adaptability

Patience, responsiveness, and the ability to adjust to the student, the drill, and the room in front of you.

Fire
Presence

Energy, courage, leadership, and the ability to bring the room alive without losing control.

Air
Awareness

Observation, timing, communication, and the ability to see what is happening in the whole room.

Void
Integration

The ability to bring structure, adaptability, presence, and awareness together in real time.

instructors.

You are good with kids

You can be warm, clear, playful, and firm when needed.

Coaching here means becoming someone others can rely on.
