I Am Rotorua – Shaq Stone

I Am Rotorua

“You’d think that it would be just sports people that come in, but it's the complete opposite. We have people who come in just to have them time, alone time, stress release, and it helps a lot with mental health. That’s another benefit, not only physically but mentally.

“For me, I've always been entrepreneurial and I didn’t want to be tied down to anyone else’s schedule. My whānau has a big background in doing things for themselves and the whole business side of things. I wanted to be my own boss, doing things for myself, kinda jumping in and I guess giving it a go. A lot of people want to do things but they don’t give it a go.”
