Introduction
Lucina and Ace are leading fitness and yoga centers dedicated to providing enriching wellness experiences. Recognizing the profound connection between emotional state and physical performance, they partnered with Upmood to integrate emotion tracking into their classes. The goal of this ongoing collaboration is to empower instructors to adapt their teaching in real-time based on student emotions, fostering deeper engagement and personal development. Emotion monitoring is crucial for this project as it allows for a truly personalized and responsive fitness journey, moving beyond traditional metrics to understand the holistic well-being of participants.
Real-Time Emotion Tracking in Practice
In their fitness and yoga centers, Lucina and Ace utilize Upmood's technology to continuously monitor participants' emotional states during classes. Students wear Upmood bands, which collect real-time Heart Rate Variability (HRV) data. This data is fed into Upmood Mass for group monitoring and then analyzed by Upmood Insight. Instructors have access to this real-time emotional data, enabling them to dynamically adjust the class flow, intensity, and activities to better suit the collective mood and individual needs of their students. After classes, customers' emotional insights are shared with them, providing encouragement and a clear picture of their personal development progress.

Why Upmood?
Upmood's products were instrumental in achieving Lucina and Ace's goals of data-driven class guidance and enhanced customer engagement. Upmood Mass provides seamless group monitoring, allowing instructors to gauge the overall emotional atmosphere of a class at a glance. Upmood Insight's detailed analytics offer granular insights into individual emotional trends, enabling personalized feedback. This real-time, objective emotion data allows teachers to make informed decisions that directly impact the class experience, leading to more effective and emotionally resonant sessions.
