About Us
Look, we started Dojo Courses because we got tired of watching people waste money on fitness programs that don't actually work. We've been around the block with this stuff — 13 years of watching what works and what doesn't. Our courses aren't fancy. They're built on actual science and real experience from trainers who've helped hundreds of people get results. You won't find motivational quotes plastered everywhere or promises that sound too good to be true. What you'll find? Straight-up instruction that teaches you how to train properly, build strength, and stay injury-free. We run things here in Ostrava, and we're proud of that.
Over time, we’ve built a reputation for reliability, quality, and clear communication. We treat each project as a partnership and aim for outcomes that last.
Our Core Values
The principles that guide everything we do
Honesty First
We'll tell you what works and what doesn't. If a method's outdated, we say so. No hiding behind fancy language. You deserve to know exactly what you're getting into before you start.
Practical Over Perfect
Your living room isn't a commercial gym. Your schedule is messy. We teach you to train with what you've actually got, not what you wish you had. Real fitness for real life.
Constant Learning
This field moves. We stay on top of new research and throw out old ideas when better ones come along. Your course from us today will be better than one from last year.
No Shortcuts
Build strength properly or don't build it at all. We're not here to sell you quick fixes. We're here to show you how to get results that actually stick.
Our Story
Started in 2011 when one of us got frustrated with the state of online fitness instruction. We were that person in the gym who kept getting asked for advice. So we figured, why not do this properly? Built the first course on a shoestring budget. It was rough, but people actually learned from it. Over the next decade, we refined everything — worked with coaches, gathered feedback, scrapped what wasn't working. Moved to Ostrava in 2018 and haven't looked back. Today we've got courses that work because they're built on real-world experience, not theoretical nonsense.

Our Mission & Our Vision
Our Mission
We teach people how to train smart. That's it. Our courses break down fitness into digestible, actionable steps so you can build a routine that lasts. No gimmicks. Just solid instruction from people who actually know their stuff and give a damn about your progress.
Our Vision
Five years from now, we want fitness courses to mean something different. Less Instagram nonsense, more real results. We're building a library of training knowledge that people trust completely — the kind of resource you'd recommend to your mate without hesitation.

Martin Svoboda
Founder & Lead Coach
Started Dojo after years of coaching in commercial gyms. Believes programming should match reality. Spends his time either teaching people to lift properly or arguing about why isolation exercises get too much hype.
Petra Novotná
Course Development
Former athlete who got frustrated with bad coaching. Now she builds our content from the ground up. Meticulous about details. Won't let a course go live until it's genuinely useful. Coffee addict.
Jakub Horák
Strength & Conditioning Specialist
Worked with endurance athletes for 8 years before joining us. Designed most of our intermediate and advanced programs. Quiet guy who knows his stuff inside out. Probably overthinking something right now.
