Why this exists.

I'm Dimi. PT-diploma'd, currently in Greece, building this from a laptop.

I made gymbuddy because every PT directory I tried as a trainee was either stuffed with bootcamp generalists or ranked PTs by who paid the most. Neither helps a real client.

A new mum looking for pelvic floor work, a 52-year-old with a dodgy knee, a runner six weeks post-ACL — these are different jobs and they need different coaches. So this site filters by niche first, city second.

Listings are free for PTs because charging coaches to be found felt wrong. The site makes money from a small client subscription and a merch line. That's it.

If something's broken or wrong, email hello@gymbuddy.uk and I'll fix it.
