I have a lot of people asking me questions regarding what an exercise fitness trainer actually makes for teaching classes. Some people don’t really think a body fitness exercise instructor earns much. I can’t really say that all exercise fitness trainer earns the same, but I can roughly share with you some rough gauge on the question.

 First, Group Exercise Fitness Trainer seldom earns a salary unless they are full timers. Even so depending on their contract most do not have a fix salary. Most often, they are paid by the hour or a flat rate per class that they teach.  How much is the per class rates depends on a few factors:

• Experience – Very seldom a club will give you a raise unless you are popular and you are able to pack the classes that you teach. With experience you will definitely gain popularity among the members.

•  Club Exclusivity- To be exclusive to a club means you won’t be able to teach at other clubs, which is normally their competitors. Normally you will get a   minimum number of classes per week and you may ask for a higher class rates. Depending on the company, you can also ask for benefits like bonus, course sponsorship and etc.

• Class Attendance –  You may depend on the class numbers to ask for a higher per class rate, of cause the numbers have to be good in order for the club to justify the amount they pay you.

• Commission basis – for instance you are paid according to the number of students in your class. Some clubs charge their members for the workouts exercises class and you may have a percentage of it, somewhere from 60 – 40 or 70 -30. Of cause you get the higher percentage. You may get to earn quite a bit if you have a full class but also very much less if the class numbers drop example when it is near some  festive seasons where members go away.

As an average per class rates, a lowest of $40 to a high of $150 per class is possible. If you are willing to work hard, you can easily hit a five figure salary per month. That is not bad as compare to most of my peers of the same age.
