Fantastic place to stay & teach...I taught 9am spin & 4pm HIIT...class numbers were on the smallish side but the people who came tended to come the entire week. We were lucky enough to get a 3bd, 3ba suite! Restaurants were all very good. There are a LOT of steps at this resort. Evening entertainment is top notch. The only suggestion I would have is to have our flyers on display....the hotel only has an app to promote classes & I learned most guests don't utilize the app. A few guests were upset to learn there was no yoga! Beautiful grounds leading to an amazing beach area too!

This is a great straightforward teaching assignment with no surprises. It's too bad the classes can't be in the gym because the guests were really hot outside even in November! The gym is really nice and has a spin room, so the guests seemed a little confused we were not in there, but the manager said it gets too hot and loud.

Nice yoga studio and Kevin was very helpful. Two morning classes allow you to have the rest of the day free.

Everyone was absolutely amazing at that resort. Their fitness program and how they deal with Fitbodies is very organized, and the guests tend to attend more classes here than at other resorts I've visited. It was amazing, as always.

Kevin was absolutely amazing and helpful with making sure everything was ready to go and ran smoothly for both classes. Hands down one of the best teaching vacations we have had and can not wait to do it again soon! Spin bikes. For tabata class mats and weights were available to use. Resort provided a Bluetooth speaker.

I was allowed to use anything from the gym. Specifically gloves were used in my class. I used my phone and connected to their speaker via Bluetooth. The Entertainment team announced my classes, I walked around and invited guests to join. I don't even know where to begin. The staff was exceptional, professional and truly amazing. I felt instantly welcomed as a part of their family. Thank you For Bodies! Thank you for encouraging me to step out of my comfort zone. Thank you for connecting people from all over the world who have a common love of fitness. I am forever grateful for this opportunity. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!

Some of the friendliest people I have ever met. Everyone was super helpful with my classes. Jewel Grande is such an amazing resort. The Fitbodies team makes it so easy to book your trip and helps every step along the way. I truly enjoyed my time teaching and relaxing in Montego Bay.

The staff at this resort is awesome. The entertainment manager, Kevin gave me a very quick tour and his instructions were fast, so I recommend whoever teaches there just be sure they are clear on instructions around towels and mats on the days that Kevin is off, especially. My daughter and I had a wonderful time and my classes were well attended. I've never taught in such a beautiful location. Thank you, Fit Bodies! I would love to see some US resorts and more resorts with a higher age limit for children.

The staff was very accommodating of any requests that we had. Kevin, the fitness manager, was willing to help with anything but didn’t hover and let me do my thing. I connected my music to the bluetooth speaker resort provided. Book early! This resort books far in advance!

I keep going back to Jamaica because of the people - hotel staff were exceptional! Jewel Grande was the most luxurious resort I have stayed at yet!!! I highly recommend it. Kevin the fitness manager was excellent. We got along really well & I think he is fantastic! Teaching yoga on the beach, gazebo and studio are all beautiful settings.

The teaching schedule is a little flexible and I appreciate this. Bikes are usually positioned outside for class so one day it rained and we had class indoors. Lots of relaxation time, good food and really an enjoyable experience!
