Do you love being outdoors?

Enjoy new challenges and hate sitting indoors all summer? With us you can work full-time or part-time as an instructor in Copenhagen and the surrounding area. You do not need to be a pro rider — what matters most is that you enjoy working with people, have drive and curiosity, and want to help customers reach their goals.

The season typically runs from March to November. If you would like to join the team, fill in the form below.
