We live in a world, where everything is very fast. Our society can put so much pressure on us. That is the reason, why it is so important to balance our every day live. And for so many people that balance is sport.

Sport brings your body and your psyche in harmony. Prepares yourself for future challenges and is a important boost for your immunesystem. There are so many kinds of sport you can perfectly do on your own. Running, riding a bike, home workouts and yoga are just some of them. Its getting difficult when a Teamsport is what keeps us moving.

In these times we need to pay even more attention for the people around us and put ourselves last. We see all the shops, restaurants, bars, theaters and sportclubs closed for now. With the closed sportclubs our hearts beat faster. We want to be a part of a respectful and thoughtful society, without loosing our balance. We found a way to practis Teamsports, with a heavy focus on martial arts of all kinds.

We are Armbar Society and we are proud to present to you the Gymbuddyfinder!

The User has the opportunity to create a simple profil and can get connected with people that have the same interests nearby. I can get in contact easily, no matter where i am and what time it is, share my knowledge and maybe find something new. You are new to this place and no gym nearby has open? With the Gymbuddyfinder you can finde someone who knows a place where you can train together.

In 2019 the german „Ringer-Bund“ had 64.058 members, the german „Judo-Bund“ had 134.000 members, the german „Karate-Bund“ had 152.000 members and the german „Taekwondo Union had 55.792 members. These are just a few members out of all the different martial art clubs and schools.

After the Covid-19 crises we will find back together as a society and that is when the Gymbuddyfinder grows to full potential. We give our users the chance to feel more comfortable in new places. We are talking about bussines trips and holidays. Even before you start your trip you can easily find the perfect partner and location to train, wherever you go.

For those that are new to martail arts the gymbuddyfinder is very interesting. They can find somebody to talk to, find out what sport fits them and to find the perfect place to train. In a short period of time i can get in contact to all the different worlds of martial arts. Inform myself and connect with other users.

There will also be a chance for parents to create an special marked account to find the right martial art for theyre kids. Kids are a huge and important part of our society. With martial arts they gain stenghtful minds, disciplin, respect and confidence.

Inspiration:

The idea grew out of our wish to find and meet new people to train with, wherever we are. Because of Marcel´s job he was very often out of town. His passion is Bazilian JiuJitsu but he had not always the chance to train. Media like Google or Facebook made it sometimes even harder to find the right people and locations.

How we build it:

None of us has the knowledge to programm by himself. Between daily routine, jobs and family there is not much time to learn something like this. Therefor we work with befriended programmers.

Challenges we ran into:

The past year we all had to get out of our confortzone to gain skills and kwowledge to be where we are curently at.

Our programm is already working and at the moment we are in the Beta Phase.

The most important thing that we need at the moment, is a way to make the Gymbuddyfinder safe for us and the user. We also need extra help with hardware, an IT-Team and marketingexperts to implement our concept and get our place in the international market.

We are happy to hear from you and to work with interesting partners.
