How Tima came to be

our origin
story

Tima was founded in 2021 with our founders approaching our minority owner/Head of Sales & Operations – Simon Parish with a mandate of providing additional support to our own gyms upon re-opening after the third UK Lockdown – as most with our fitness industry peers, the gyms had suffered terribly during the pandemic. From this need for additional support – Tīma was born. After not only supporting these clubs back into their feet, but also driving them to new heights – we decided to commercialise the enterprise and reach out to any other operators looking to optimise their businesses performance and in just 3 years Tīma has over quadrupled in size working across multiple sectors and providing a variety of support services. We are an ambitious company and look forward to supporting many more businesses over the coming years. We love helping our clients take their businesses to the next level!
