Problem

Great yoga is everywhere, but discovery is fragmented: DMs for scheduling, scattered payments, and no single place to see progress or community. Practitioners bounce; teachers lose hours to admin.

Solution

We unified discovery, personalized recommendations, scheduling, in-app wallet payouts, and lightweight community touchpoints so the path from curiosity to mat is a few taps — not a patchwork of tools.
