World Class Business Connecting with New Zealand Communities
Born in Australia, Fitstop has secured over 200 locations globally across four countries - so it’s safe to say we know a thing or two about creating communities, and New Zealand is one of our strongest communities yet.
We’re so proud to be a part of the growing fitness industry in New Zealand with 6 incredible locations of our own so far. Our mission is to bridge the gap in strength and conditioning training and provide a genuine team environment for our members, and we’re pretty proud of what we’ve achieved so far.
Fitstop New Zealand's State of Play
Fitstop's Growing Presence in New Zealand
With six open Fitstop locations in New Zealand and more to come, we're thrilled to see our brand grow in the country. This means that more and more people are discovering what we're all about, which is high-performance training that helps individuals achieve their fitness goals, all while being part of a welcoming and supportive community.
We’ve also grown our incredible Fitstop New Zealand team, with trainers, our General Manager Brendan Hurrell, Member Experience Specialists, performance panel members and working with the best in business leasing agents.
Community Focus that Resonates with what New Zealand Want
We're proud to say that Fitstop's community focus resonates with the people of New Zealand. Our sessions feature team training unlike anything seen before, so our members always feel welcomed, socialised, and part of something bigger in their community. New Zealand has some of the most committed and passionate communities we've seen, and we're honoured to be a part of them.
Attracting Incredible Business Owners
Fitstop New Zealand has attracted some incredible business owners, such as former All-Black and now owner of Fitstop New Plymouth, Brendon Leonard. We believe that the success of our brand is due to our supportive and collaborative culture, which has attracted like-minded individuals who share our passion for fitness and community.
Dr. Nic Gill on Fitstop's Performance Panel
We’re also so fortunate to have welcomed Dr. Nic Gill, strength and conditioning coach at the All Blacks, on Fitstop's performance panel. As a Kiwi, he values keeping things simple, working hard, and rolling up your sleeves - the attitude and values that he saw in Fitstop’s community.
Gill loves Fitstop's high-performance training attitude that helps people achieve their goals consistently over time and our holistic, educational approach to fitness. Now, Gill gets to elevate this within our global network with our incredible New Zealand locations as his first point of contact.
