"You down with BOP? .... yeah you know me!" Lol iykyk
What an awesome week it has been so far in Tauranga running another 1 week security academy. An action packed week of COA training, First Aid, Self Defence and more. Although it was a "race against the storm" last Sunday, the weather has settled and the sun is popping out from time to time. Nevertheless the trainees have been bringing their own sunlight with them everyday to make the week an awesome experience.

Spoiler Alert!!!
Over the last couple of weeks, something pretty cool has been unfolding at the Pop Training HQ in Lower Hutt. When people visit our training studio, we often get comments about how inviting, comfortable and stimulating it is. We think it is a pretty awesome learning environment,.however we believed there was a little something missing. Something vibrant, something inspiring that would make our space truly "pop!" So with the help of an amazing local mural artist Daniel Allen we brought a concept to life.

Finishing off the week like a "taniwha!" A quick flight from tamaki to Whangarei to meet yet another keen group of learners. Now its time for the long haul back home to wind down another awesome week on the road. It's such a vibe "popping up" all over Aotearoa to share knowledge in an environment where we place People Over Profit.

Morena Tamaki! Another new week and we are on the road again. This week's journey for Pop Training starts at our Ellerslie branch. This is a brand new site that we opened in late 2025 so we can have a crack at the biggest marketplace in NZ. We have already started strong with some regular COA training for some of our Auckland clients, but we are confident that with some hard grind that we can build a strong business presence.

We are at it again! Another busy week for Pop Training ... started the week training some new guards in Otautahi Christchurch while Benjamin Kingi hosted a big class in Lower Hutt. Now a couple of rest days back on home turf before heading to Tamaki Makaurau and Whangarei next week. The Pop! team just keeps getting it done!

Started the week in the 03, might as well finish there too! Although my wife isn't too pleased with me working on Valentines Day, there was a need from our Queenstown clients to "level up" some of their staffs security qualifications. So "pop down" I did! Couldn't think of a more beautiful place to be working on a Saturday.

All set for a "full house" for LCQ Training at Pop Studio Lower Hutt. Lots of up and coming Duty Managers for the Wellington Hospo market.
