Objective:

Design a mobile-first yoga app that empowers yoga therapy clients and general wellness seekers. The app will feature AI-powered personalization, wearable device integration (Apple Watch, Garmin, Fitbit), and therapist-facing tools—while connecting externally to our existing online community forum. A detailed project management outline is already available to guide student or team workflows.

Target Users:

1. Yoga Therapy Clients – Individuals managing chronic conditions, stress, or pain, working with a certified yoga therapist.
2. Yoga Learners & Wellness Enthusiasts – Individuals seeking to learn and practice yoga independently, guided by AI and personalized plans.
3. Yoga Therapists – Professionals who assign personalized routines, track biometric data, and support clients with digital tools.

Core Features to Design:

🔹 AI-Powered Onboarding & Personalization

• Wellness intake: health goals, conditions, yoga experience
• AI-generated programs (e.g., “Morning Energy Boost,” “Yoga for PCOS”)
• Smart progression based on usage, feedback, and wearable inputs

🔹 Wearable Device Integration

• Sync with Apple Health, Google Fit, Garmin, Fitbit
• Display metrics: sleep, heart rate, HRV, step count, etc.
• Adapt recommendations based on data trends (e.g., low sleep = restorative yoga)

🔹 Therapist Interface (for clients working with a professional)

• Client dashboard with session logs and biometric summaries
• Assign/review practices and session feedback
• Add video/audio notes or secure messages

🔹 Practice & Learning Interface (for all users)

• Daily guided sessions (video/audio) from AI or therapist
• Bookmarking, history tracking, and adaptive flow suggestions
• Journal prompts for mood, energy, pain, and progress check-ins

🔹 Educational Resources

• Video library of condition-specific or goal-based sessions
• Meditation, breathwork, and yoga nidra collections
• Beginner foundations and posture tutorials

Deliverables:

• Wireframes and user journeys for clients, learners, and therapists
• Interactive Figma prototype (mobile-first, wellness-inspired design)
• UX personas, empathy maps, and problem-solution mapping
• Brand style guide (color, typography, iconography)
• Accessibility audit aligned with WCAG standards

Suggested Design Deliverables:

🔹 Design Audit

• Evaluate any existing intake or practice flow (if applicable)
• Identify friction points and opportunities for simplification or enrichment

🔹 Competitive Research

• Study top yoga and wellness apps (e.g., Down Dog, Headspace, Glo, WHOOP)
• Extract successful UX patterns and pitfalls for your target audiences

🔹 User Research (Optional)

• Define key personas: beginner yoga learner, chronic pain client, therapist
• Create empathy maps and journey flows for the app’s top use cases

🔹 Wireframes + Redesign Recommendations

• Visualize screens for: onboarding, session dashboard, therapist review, AI yoga flow
• Annotate screens with logic (e.g., wearable-based session suggestions)

🔹 Prototype

• High-fidelity, mobile-first prototype in Figma
• Interactive flows to simulate key user experiences

Bonus Challenge (Optional):

• Prototype the AI flow engine (based on inputs and wearable feedback)
• Show user flow for connecting to the external community forum
• Explore a “freemium” tier toggle: basic users vs. therapist-guided care
