We want to see our youth succeed.

Tautoko Rangatahi Trust exists to facilitate the engagement of our South Taranaki youth in functional fitness for their physical and holistic development. We believe functional fitness programs serve as a proxy-classroom, where positive self-worth, discipline, perseverance and dedication are both encouraged and strengthened. Seeing kids grow in confidence and ambition is the only reward we seek. Premised on real-world situational biomechanics, functional fitness programs incorporate cardiovascular activities, gymnastics and weight-lifting. Registered Charity CC55600.
