PUSH FITNESS was built by four everyday people who share a simple goal: to do good things, with good people, for our community. We are coaches, parents, husbands and wives, friends, and now co-founders.

The idea first came to life at Adam and Amy's bach in Tongaporutu. Adam was on the BBQ cooking up his infamous burgers, the kayaks were pulled up on the riverbank, and in the middle of it all sat a notebook scribbled with dreams. That notebook became the blueprint for what Push Fitness could be.

OUR MISSION

PUSH FITNESS wasn't built from a love of training alone. It grew from years of coaching, listening, and showing up for people. We saw what worked, what didn't, and what a real community should feel like - one built on whanaungatanga (connection), manawaroa (resilience), and a purpose that goes beyond the physical.

The name Push carries that meaning. It's about pushing limits, pushing for better, and pushing for each other.

At Push, our focus is progress in strength, endurance, mindset, and life. Hauora is at the core of everything we do: helping you move well, think well, and live well.

Fitness is just the gateway. The outcome is growth as an athlete, a parent, a teammate, a human.

Whatever your reason for walking through the door, there's space for you here.

WHO BELONGS HERE?

Push Fitness is for ANYONE and EVERYONE wanting to move forward.

We're for the beginner learning the basics.

For the parent carving out time for themselves.

For the athlete chasing that next edge.

For anyone rebuilding from injury, burnout, or a tough season.

You don't need to be fit to start. You don't need to know the movements. You just need to show up. We'll meet you where you're at and build from there.

Push is for anyone who wants solid training, genuine connection, and elite level coaching without the ego.

No shortcuts. No judgment. Just good people doing the mahi together.

From loss and hardship came a new beginning. Joe and Aroha Thompson returned home to Taranaki carrying grief, whānau responsibilities, and a vision for something greater. Together they built Horoia Cleaning Ltd on the foundations of manaakitanga, resilience, and strong whānau values.

Starting with just 12 clients, their business quickly grew into an award-nominated success story - proving that people, relationships, and purpose matter.

Read how their journey home became the start of something remarkable. ❤️
