SHF May Member of the Month - Bohan Hardy

This month we acknowledge a member that every gym loves to have; respectful, clean and tidy and never overdue! Bohan consistently shows up and puts in the work which has lead to him gaining some excellent progress in the gym.

Why did you decide to join SHF?
After recently moving to the area and finding myself with a lot of free time on my hands, I decided to put it to good use. Joining SHF was a no-brainer, as their equipment and facilities are second to none.

What do you love most about training at SHF?
I love how accepting the SHF staff and members are of people of all ages and ability levels. Everyone is extremely friendly, welcoming and supportive and just want to see everyone who steps through the door get better. Having such a great gym so close to home is also a massive privilege.

What advice do you have for someone looking to being or resume their fitness journey?
My advice would be trying to stay as consistent as possible with your training. Progress takes time, but once you start noticing it, you’ll keep chasing that feeling and striving for more results. Another piece of advice I would give is to not be afraid of asking for help, no matter how simple or extensive your question might be. The staff and members at SHF are always more than willing to help.

Congratulations to Bohan on being recognised as our Member of the Month for May. Enjoy your post workout smoothie from Katelyn at Rise ‘n’ Shine Nutrition and treat yourself to some new gym apparel thanks to our friends at LSKD!

As we celebrate 3 years in business, it has given us the opportunity to reflect on why we started, what we’ve achieved and where we are going. Our vision and our why has never changed, it always has and always will be about our community.

Owning our own gym in Shearwater was a 10 year dream, rather than wait and always think what if, in 2023 we took the leap, sold our home and started SHF from the ground up. We had never ran our own business, had to wear all the hats, whilst still working our 9-5’s and raising our young family. To be honest, we didn’t think we would make it past first the first 12 months. We hit burnout and were looking at any way we could to get out.

In year two we made some changes, we both dropped a few days of our 9-5’s to be in the business more. We learnt how to roll with the highs and lows of running a small business. We continued to stay true to our vision, investing every dollar back into the business with new equipment, painting the inside and outside and in late 2025 buying the building we are in.

In 2025 we grew our family from three to four, this brought many challenges - Alex taking long service and paternity leave to run the gym while Sam took maternity leave. We have been extremely lucky to have had an amazing team who have helped us create the welcoming community that is SHF and be in the gym when we haven’t been able to. We don’t share a lot of behind the scenes, more so because we are both hopeless with social media! The behind the scenes of running a small business with a four year old and 10 month old is chaos, often emails, social media and programming is done between naps or once everyone is asleep. It is messy, chaotic and exhausting but we also wouldn’t have it any other way.

We were recently asked the question “if you had the chance would you do it again?” We both said yes without hesitation. The community, friendships, laughs and impact on people’s confidence and health as a result of being apart of SHF is exactly why we do what we do.

To everyone who has been apart of our journey, members past and present - thankyou! We truly appreciate your support and wouldn’t be where we are today without it! 🤍
