# Beyond Yoga's lifestyle expansion now delivers majority of revenue as direct sales climb 40% YoY *Category bundling beyond core product turns adjacent lifestyle goods into the primary revenue driver for activewear brand.* By **Jenny Huang Goodman MPA MSc MHSA, Principal** — The Stash Edge, Hako Shikin LLC.

Canonical: https://www.pops4.com/stash/articles/beyond-yoga-2026-07-21t16-1 Subject: Beyond Yoga Tags: category expansion, bundling, direct sales, activewear, product assortment, customer lifetime value --- Beyond Yoga posted **14% year-over-year sales growth** last quarter, with direct revenue up **40%**, according to Glossy. The pivot: lifestyle categories outside the brand's original yoga pants and leggings now generate more than half the company's total revenue. The brand moved from single-category activewear to a bundled lifestyle assortment, and the adjacent categories outgrew the core. The mechanics are straightforward. Beyond Yoga added loungewear, tops, outerwear, and accessories around its established legging franchise. Each new category shares the brand's fabrication DNA but serves different use occasions. A customer buying leggings now sees coordinated tops, a matching jacket, and a duffel in the same cart experience. The brand reports the lifestyle categories now account for the revenue majority, meaning more than **50%** of sales come from products that did not exist in the original assortment. Why it works: the brand already owned the customer's trust on fit and fabric. Extending that trust into adjacent categories costs far less than acquiring new customers for each product. The same shopper who validated Beyond Yoga's leggings will test a hoodie at lower perceived risk. Bundling lifestyle categories around a core product turns a single purchase into a recurring relationship across use cases. The customer is not buying yoga pants; she is buying a wardrobe system from a brand she already knows delivers on comfort. The steal for a small physical-product brand starts with your core product's job-to-be-done. If you sell a kitchen tool, map the five other tasks that happen in the same workflow. If you sell a travel accessory, list the adjacent problems a traveler solves in the same trip. Pick the two easiest to source or produce that share your brand's material or design language. Launch them as a bundle or a coordinated set, not as separate line items. Price the bundle to move: core product at full margin, adjacent items at cost-plus-ten to drive attachment. Use your existing email list and product pages to cross-sell. A legging brand can afford to develop outerwear because the customer file is already warm. A candle brand can add matchboxes and wick trimmers for under **$2** per unit landed cost and drive average order value from **$28** to **$48** without new customer acquisition. Test the bundle on your next **500 orders**. If attachment rate exceeds **18%**, expand the assortment and feature it on the homepage. Build the lifestyle system one adjacent category at a time, using the core product's margin to subsidize the expansion. The broader pattern: customers hire products to solve clusters of related problems, not isolated tasks. A brand that solves one problem well earns permission to solve the next three. Revenue concentration in a single category is a tariff you pay in customer lifetime value. Beyond Yoga's lifestyle majority is not a pivot; it is a completion of the brand's original promise, sold through a product assortment the customer can now live in. ## The takeaway Expand your core product into adjacent lifestyle categories that share brand DNA and use case to capture majority revenue from existing customers. --- ## Publisher **Hako Shikin LLC** — Virginia Beach, Virginia.
