Funky Bots makes fitness fun.

They represent the next generation of body motion gaming, where players don’t just run, skip and jump. They learn to do the Toprock, the Brooklyn Uprock, the shuffle, the 2 step... People can learn tai chi in under 2 hours or move and mediate in just 7 minutes. They created 3 apps chosen by Apple as Best New App as well as the first motion sensor apps for tai chi and street dance.

Their products are created by professional dancers and martial artists who want to turn passive entertainment into active engagement, fun and fitness. Their products are designed to give users a high ROI on their time. People can play 20 minutes a day, three times a week and still reap substantial benefits.

Funky Bots participated in two accelerator programs, the Alcatel Accelerator Innovation Challenge (Paris) and the Technogym Wellness Accelerator (Venice), and was also chosen by the Pioneers Festival (Vienna) as part of Startups 500 in 2016. Current partners include Technogym, TCL, Alcatel and H-Farm.

In 2017, Funky Bots will be launching Atomic Bands, the first smart bluetooth gaming bands, chosen by CNET as one of the Top New Gadgets of CES 2017. www.atomicbands.com
