Why exercise?
Some women seek out a fitness journey to focus on weight loss. However, the benefits of exercise can be much more than this. A western lifestyle is often full of stresses, processed foods and minimal activity. B-Uzuri aims to help give focus on areas to help bring you back in balance.
- Exercise can help with health conditions.

As well as exercise, the app offers excellent meditation and affirmation videos aimed at helping women in a variety of ways, from focusing on the present to managing stressful situations.
