Can Yoga make a good video game?

Or better yet, can the Wii Fit help my yoga practice? Currently out of stock all over the US, the Wii Fit is the most desired video game and accessory in the world...but I want to know, is the Wii Fit just another passing fad or does it actually make a good yoga training tool?

Take your time - Don’t rush Wii yoga


The Wii fit yoga poses offer a good variety of postures to ensure a well-rounded practice. It is important to ensure that your yoga practice includes twists, forward bending and spinal extension to bring the body into balance. Once you’ve unlocked the 15 wii fit yoga poses be sure to design your practice with a range from these categories. The Nintendo wii fit demo is good to watch prior to trying the poses, as your ability to look at the screen is compromised in certain positions, eg, to be bent over in sun salutation. The Wii fit demo video illustrates how to go through the exercises, basic information is given and reference to the breath is made, but remember that there are differences between traditional yoga and the wii fit yoga poses. The final 4 poses are more advanced, and care should be exercised moving into these postures.
