Project Summary:
Confidance App is a project I made during my Interactive Design (UI/UX) class. It is an app that offers dance tutorials from professional choreographers and dancers, while tracking your progress as you keep excising. The theme of the assignment was to create a health and wellness app, so I decided to create a dance and fitness app. I was inspired to create this app as a dancer myself, who has done ballet, jazz, lyrical/contemporary, and hip-hop. I wanted to create an app that focused more on building confidence, rather than weight loss.

What my competitors are doing right?
- My competitors are offering different dance genres for videos
- Incorporating diet/food/weight, community, and using professional choreographers/dancers in the app

What my competitors are doing wrong?
- What my competitors are doing wrong is that they are not personalizing the app enough for users
