Tēnā koutou whānau ❤️
It is with a heavy heart and after a lot of wānanga and kōrero that we as a whānau have decided not to renew our lease and will be closing our CGF premises with a final celebration and whakawātea in our building on Thursday the 28th of April❤️❤️
-
After 3 years based at 49A Cameron street we will be closing the doors on that space and exploring new avenues for the future of CGF, know that this is not the end of CGF but just an exploration for new ways to tautoko our whānau on their hauora journey !!
-
Our last ZUU class will officially be on Wednesday the 27th of April at 5.30-6.30pm❤️

We want all of our members, supporters, whānau and community to know that this does not mean the end of our kaupapa at Common Grounds Fitness. It is a time for us to reflect, refocus and innovate in these unprecedented times and consider what new futures can look like for Common Grounds Fitness.
-
We cannot express enough how deeply grateful we are for all those who have supported us from day one and continued to support us through COVID and all the challenges that have made us in turn more resilient 🙌🏾🙌🏾

Here are some words from our coaches and CGF founders ❤️❤️

19/02/2022

The structures were solid right from the start. We are super proud of all our members that trained hard for this day putting aside all the excuses and showing up today at the Central 4s xfit competition. A special mention to our team Squadoosh who made the podium today and a big thank you to our supporters Soil&Sand. Also a massive mihi to the organisers for putting on such an awesome event and taking care of us all. Much respect from our CGF community.

Massive thank you to Soil & Sand for their support. Special thank you to Papa Ralph Ruka for always working hard behind the scenes for our communities. Our team and whānau, communities are ready 100% to represent our culture.

SOFTEN UP BRO PANEL TALK 2022 - WHANGĀREI EVENT 🎤💜

INTRODUCING OUR FIRST GUEST SPEAKER: Phoenix Ruka 🇳🇿

Tēnā koutou!

Ko Phoenix Ruka tēnei, he uri nō Hokianga, Panguru, Taheke, Mangakahia anō hoki! Kei reira ōku maunga me ōku wai kawe oranga e rere atu ki te Moana nui a Kupe, ki te marae nui o Hinemoana otīra ki a Tangaroa Whakamautai!

Tēnā anō tātou, my whānau have always made a stand for the well being of Māori in all facets of the word, hinengaro, tinana me te wairua hoki. So naturally, my passion for tāne, otīra tāne Māori drives me every morning and wakes me up every day. I believe our tāne are warriors yes, but, more than that we are nurturers, we are carers, we are gardeners and we are tāne atawhai and for me we need to feed that part of ourselves now more than ever.

Nō reirā e rere atu ana ngā mihi aroha ki a koutou! Hīkaka ana ahau ki te kōrero tahi, wānanga tahi hoki!

MAURI ORA ❤️

Day in day out we keep pushing. Now more than ever it’s important our communities stay United and resilient together. We know the struggle is there but we push thru using physicality to build a mentality that helps deal with all the challenges that life throws at you.

13/02/2022

One more week for our members who have been working hard to compete at the CFW comps. Some nerves, some excitement, but mostly we’ve learnt heaps, we’ve had fun and we’re proud to represent our kaupapa He Taura Punga Heke. At our gym all shapes and sizes are welcome, we don’t care how fit you are because it’s all about whānau first - fitness second.
