Kia ora, I’m Korey Gibson.
A Pāpā driven to empower children and vulnerable people with the knowledge and skills to stay safe, make smart decisions, and always return home safely.
Outside of Tū Toa Personal Protection Training, I'm dedicated to helping whānau (families) create lives filled with abundance, purpose, and intergenerational wealth.
My mission is to inspire and empower communities to thrive on discipline, motivation, and legacy. With over 25 years of experience, I’ve built multiple successful businesses, including Quest Health Clubs, Snap Fitness NZ, MyFirstGym, Fit Futures Academy, and many more. These ventures have generated tens of millions of dollars and expanded across New Zealand, Australia, and beyond.
Now, I’m here to share my skills from the fighting world to help keep you and your loved ones safe.
Tū Toa Personal Protection Training draws on real-world experience to equip you with the tools, mindset, and instincts to protect yourself and those you love. I've lived it, trained with the best, and now it's your turn.
Beyond my professional life, I’m a proud father, husband, advocate for Te Reo Māori, longevity nut, two-time Australian, and one-time NZ MMA champion who believes in the power of personal growth, strong relationships, and a commitment to leaving a legacy rooted in mana.

Fun, exciting & incredible results!
My sales career was forged almost 2 decades ago with Koreys' Strictly Sales "Help don't Sell" principles that made selling with ethics and integrity - fun, exciting and created incredible results! Koreys' sales structures and ethos kindled an enthusiasm within me that has been the foundation for so many ventures across various industries such as health, wellness, real estate and business consulting. They’ve allowed me to pivot into whatever I’ve wanted to do and succeed.

Thank you!
I have known Korey for many years, and he has been an awesome training partner throughout my MMA career, always keen to help and share his combat knowledge. I've also been lucky to go out in the bush with Korey, and going on a pig hunt was an awesome experience being out in the bush with the bro, and after that experience, I definitely caught the hunting bug!
