About the company

Company websiteSpectator Sports

We build products that help you move better. Whether you're a professional, casual athlete, or physical therapy patient, we make sure that every single swing or pitch or squat gets you closer to your goals. 

First, we capture your current movement and identify what can be improved. Our sensor technology accurately measures movements and rotations.

Next, we help you and your coach build a regimen for you, targeted at improving what we just assessed. We've been working with our community of coaches, trainers, and therapists to build a platform of knowledge that will be customized for you.

Then, our patented technology combines visual, auditory, and physical cues, to ensure that under the direction of your coach, you'll train to a perfect rep each time. Forget trying to figure out if your upper body should bend a few more degrees or whether you are copying your trainer correctly – you will know when you've practiced perfectly. 

Finally, by going through these steps again and again, you'll see where you're making progress after each session, while this learning loop helps you move better and better.

Welcome to K-Motion, a human motion learning systems company.

Our products and services are used by professionals and athletes in sports, fitness and rehabilitation. Utilizing a combination of software, hardware and education, we empower athletes and their coaches, trainers and therapists to create superior outcomes.
