Job Description
- Physical Therapist Assistant (PTA) — Performance Coach
- Berman Health Club | Naples, Florida
- Full-Time
- $60,000–$90,000+ | Bonuses | Leadership Growth
- Become Part of the Future of Healthcare
- Most healthcare jobs burn people out.
- Most gyms don't change lives.
- We're building something different.
- At Berman Health Club, our mission is to help adults arrive at 80 feeling 40.
We help active adults over 50 move better, feel better, become stronger, and keep doing the things they love—without relying on surgery, injections, or pain medications.
We're adding a licensed Physical Therapist Assistant to our coaching team: a PTA who wants to use their clinical skills in a one-on-one performance setting instead of a high-volume clinic.
Why Join Berman Health Club?
- No insurance headaches — one-on-one, cash-based care
- Motivated clients who actually want to improve
- Golf and pickleball performance training
- Cutting-edge recovery technology
- Continuing education paid
- Mentorship from our physical therapists
- Clear path into leadership
- High-energy, team-first culture
- What You'll Actually Do
- Every day is different.
- One hour you may be helping a golfer gain 20 yards off the tee.
- The next, you're coaching a pickleball player back onto the court pain-free.
Then you're helping someone in their 70s regain the strength and confidence to keep traveling, hiking, or playing with their grandchildren.
You'll coach one-on-one sessions, carry out and progress the plans of care our physical therapists build, and guide clients as they move from rehab into performance.
You'll also help clients choose their next step. We're a cash-based practice, so recommending the right program and helping clients stay with it is part of the job.
- You'll coach people—not just count repetitions.
- You'll build relationships.
- You'll celebrate wins.
- You'll become part of changing someone's life.
- You'll Work Alongside
- Physical Therapists
- Performance Coaches
- Wellness Professionals

- Pickleball Athletes
- Active Adults committed to aging differently
- We're Looking For Someone Who...
- Naturally connects with people
- Brings energy into every room
- Loves coaching and motivating others
- Is comfortable recommending a program and asking for the commitment
- Wants to learn aggressively
- Takes ownership and responsibility
- Thrives in a team environment
- Wants a career—not just another job
- Sees leadership in their future
