Hi! My name is Justin Hart and I am the founder of Tiger Health. I started this business as a way to follow my passions and dreams, and to help as many people (and animals!) as I could. 
I must admit though that this business is a combination not just of my efforts but also my girlfriend, Tiffany, who is another person madly passionate about health and fitness! Without her help and support, and that of our families, friends and teachers, none of this would ever have been possible.
In the beginning…
Tiffany and I actually met at the Lanna Muay Thai Boxing Camp in Chiang Mai, Thailand. I had been living there for 3 years, studying Thai Boxing, and was training up for a big fight.
Tiffany walked in to the gym one day, looking nervous but excited. She had never been to Thailand, and never learnt any Muay Thai before, but had been studying Karate all her life and wanted to try something new. Straight away she stood out from the crowd, and I could tell she was passionate about martial arts and health. She also had one of the most glowing and friendly personalities I had ever seen!
One other thing I noticed was that she had the exact same pair of running shoes as me! Same colour, same style, just a mini version! So I knew she had good taste! 
and I also had the perfect ice breaker to introduce myself!
We hit it off straight away, and whilst I could tell there was chemistry I was reluctant to make a move as I had this big fight in a few days. My parents and sister had even flown out for it! 
Anyway, I stayed focused, fight night came, I fought hard and I won! Tiff and I got together that night, and that was that!
We spent the next 2 years living and training in Thailand together, and I competed a few more times. During one of my fights I fractured a rib, and this put me out for a few weeks. As I was unable to do much of my own training, to keep myself from going crazy, I started to help out in the gym with the beginners. At first just going up to them and giving them tips, showing them things like footwork and correcting their techniques. I then started to pick up pads for people and before I knew it I had queues of people lining up to work with me! I guess this was partly because I spoke good English, and Thai, and explained all of the techniques in a lot of detail. They kept coming back for more!
The other trainers were quite appreciative of me helping out too, and very encouraging. They spent time showing me the ropes, and the tricks of the trade. Not long after that Andy, the owner of the boxing gym, asked me if I could help out regularly. I spent the next few months, holding pads at the Lanna Muay Thai Camp, and realized that this was where my heart truly was, teaching.
When the savings ran low we started to support our lifestyle by working part time for a company called TTC (Team Trainer Cooperation). This was a Thai company running English Camps with local schools and businesses. They also ran Corporate Team Building Events and Fitness Weekends!
Me and Tiffany also started our first business venture selling wheatgrass shots, health food supplements, and boxing gear in the gym, under the name of ‘Tiger Health’. The company was
born!!
Whilst we had big plans for ‘Tiger Health’, the funds were still quite low, and it was proving expensive for Tiffany to keep extending her visa. Every three months she had to return to Australia! We decided that it must be time to move on, and that it was time to do something with all the knowledge we had accumulated. Time to put it to good use, and help others around the world to get in the best shapes of their lives.
Prior to this we had dedicated our whole lives to seeing how healthy and fit we could become. Now we wanted to share what we had learned with others.
We arrived on Aussie shores together in October 2008. It was my first time in Australia, so very exciting. Straight away I knew it was somewhere I would be happy being based for the next few years.
Pretty much as soon as we landed we started to working as Personal Trainers. Tiffany at a Fitness First and
me with a mobile personal training company.
Whilst we loved our jobs, had awesome clients, and were getting them fantastic results, we both realized that these jobs had their limitations. We both had some massive dreams and I wanted to help people on a much larger scale. I had already spent years and years studying and training in the most effective fitness, strength training and fat loss systems. I felt compelled to use all my knowledge to the best of my ability, to put it all together into my own training system, and share it with as much of the world as I could! After months of hard work, actually years of hard work, this is it…
Welcome to Tiger Health!
