Description:
Seeking investment for Parkombat (Trademarked). A direct combination of Parkour movements and combative techniques. The combination of movements will become solely a tactical class featured at the gym. This class will be offered primarily to law enforcement, military, and various other security personnel. We’ll provide similar versions more suiting for the community as well. On top of that we’ll expand the facility to be used for local stunt training, after school programs, summer programs, sports directed programs, open gym, mixed martial arts, and of course parkour (not limited to these programs alone). Our main focus is to provide people with a facility where they can train to overcome physical and mental obstacles. Similar gyms are on the rise around the world and growing fast. In the current area I'm at it would be highly marketable. The worlds largest naval base is down the road providing a very large target audience. Here's a couple of gyms growing substantially in other areas to provide you with a similar idea. Apex Movement, American Parkour, and Parkour Generations. What makes Parkombat cutting edge? I'm bringing both my advanced military training and law enforcement training into the facility as well.
