Presence Fit is founded by Dr. Masaki Nakada and Robert Jadon. Dr. Nakada received his PhD from UCLA in Computer Science with an emphasis on human biomechanics, while Robert Jadon is a serial, technology entrepreneur.
There are new, live classes everyday, and there is also a library of On Demand classes. Presence's signature 40min HIIT workout is what got the company started, with a combination of strength and cardio. There are strength and mobility classes, as well as body-specific routines.
Instructors have a live video feed of each member, and that is supplemented with artificial intelligence, and HR monitoring to give them the most complete picture of the participants. There is also 2-way audio available, so participants can ask questions or request modifications and get direct responses from the trainer without distracting the class.
By having 2-way audio before and after class, as well as the ability to see if a friend is in the class, members can get get the workout they need, and enjoy it in a group setting. Since your video feed is only visible to the instructor, you never have to worry about anyone else in the class seeing you. It's completely private in that regard. We think it's the best of both worlds, combining community and privacy in a mobile platform.
Members can connect their Apple Watch to have their heart rate sent in real-time to our trainers so they can adjust their coaching accordingly. The trainer dashboard allows them to see a video of the member, their HR, and our mobile tracking using artificial intelligence which shows form, reps and activity.
Classes are expanding to include yoga, barre, and pilates to complement HIIT and strength training. These will be available live as well as On Demand.
