Yonderful is an online yoga learning app which helps online yoga beginners experiencing uncertainty in approaching yoga with personalised, easy-to-follow yoga tutorials and expert guidance to achieve their yoga learning goals.
At its core, Yonderful is built on a fundamental positioning: Clear the uncertainty; Master with guidance.
As the founder of this business concept and product, I took on various responsibilities:
Based on the research, the identified problem is that online yoga learning for beginners lacks sufficient guidance on correct posture techniques. Despite the abundance of available yoga resources, beginners often struggle to perform yoga postures in the correct form. This deficiency not only hinders their ability to learn yoga accurately but also demotivates them from continuing their yoga journey.
Therefore, the product is crafted to assist online yoga beginners by providing them with both knowledge of yoga and the confidence they need.
After research and customer analysis, I built the key message of the brand as "Clear the uncertainty; Master with guidance" to confine the experience the brand and the web app should give users.
I want users to feel empowered to achieve their yoga learning goals with reduced uncertainty in every Yonderful's touch points, from the the marketing materials to the learning web platform.
