History

• First Gymnastics Tawa Limited (Trading as Fitkidz) was incorporated on the 26th November 2002 by Tony Freeman, Keith Johnston, Robyn and Tony Armstrong and Ranil de Silva. Their vision was to promote, facilitate and deliver Gymnastics based programmes as the best physical preparation and physical development for each and every participant whatever their age, gender, culture or background.

• First Gymnastics Tawa Limited (Fitkidz) was purchased by Tania and Tony McFall during August 2005.

• In 2006 Fitkidz was re-branded to BIGAIR^® (branding developed by Malarky) and is now a very successful brand with professional coaching staff and well developed programmes based on fundamental Gymnastic philosophies. BIGAIR^® has received excellent support from the Wellington community.

• The BIGAIR^®brand has expanded to include Bigair Bungy™.  The popular Bungy Trampoline in Frank Kitts Park, Wellington was purchased by First Gymnastics Tawa Limited early 2008.  A second Bungy Trampoline site on Marine Parade, Napier was added in late 2008.

• Early 2009 the Ngaio Facility was put in place and in Term 1 new classes began.

• February 2009 Bigair Active™ was opened at 215 Main Road in Tawa, Wellington.  The new retail shop showcases a range of Gymnastics and Cheerleading apparel and accessories which until now have been largely unavailable in the Wellington Region.

• In April 2010 BIGAIR^® launches it's new website with online shopping and registration coming soon!
