You are one of fifteen people we invited into Ubuntu Moves before there was an Ubuntu Moves to invite you into.

Welcome · Friend

You were
here first.

Welcome, friend. Your mat is numbered between 1/50 and 15/50 — the opening sequence — because you were the opening sequence.

The mat is yours. Free of charge. We owe you that and more.

In return, we ask one thing: be honest with us.The Feedback Compact you'll sign in a moment is short, specific, and entirely about helping us learn from the first run.

That's the agreement. Mat for feedback. Founders to friends. Ubuntu in practice.

Chapter 04 · The Feedback Compact

The
Compact.

One page. Three commitments. The way we learn from the first fifteen mats we ever shipped.

The questionnaire · six weeks in
One video · your practice
One quote · credited to you
The Feedback CompactFounding run · № 01 / 50

You're one of the founding fifteen. The mat is already yours — this is the other half of the agreement. Help us learn from this run. The Compact is short, specific, and entirely about making the next batch better.

I.
The Questionnaire
Six weeks after your mat arrives, we'll send you a short structured questionnaire — about ten minutes to complete. Grip. Cushion. Durability. The packaging. The dedication card. The unboxing. We want what you actually think, not what you think we want to hear.
II.
A Video
Send us a short video of your mat in your own practice. Yours. Your space. Your moment.
III.
One Quote We May Use
A single sentence or two — about the mat, the brand, the philosophy, the unboxing, whatever moves you to say it — that we may use in our launch and post-launch content. We'll always credit you by first name and city only, unless you want otherwise.
Check all three commitments and sign before continuing

Your mat is reserved, your compact is signed, and your details are in our system. We could stop here. We're going to ask you one more thing, and then we'll let you go.

Would you like to stand for someone?

Ubuntu Moves was founded because of Busi, Dumani's sister, who lives in Bulawayo, Zimbabwe and has Down syndrome. People like Busi often spend their adult years navigating with whatever family, neighbours, and ad-hoc support they can find. This brand exists because of her.

Standing for Someone is the activation that funds the building of Ubuntu Moves Global, our 501(c)(3) nonprofit-in-formation. Your contribution helps cover registration and platform buildout costs for programmes that will serve children with Down syndrome across South Africa and Zimbabwe.
