YOGA (NINTENDO WII)

Using the Wii Balance Board and following step-by-step instructions from a variety of gaming gurus, players will be guided through a variety of popular yoga exercises. Players will be able to track their progress through a dynamic tracking system and set a schedule to follow. The yoga guru, acting as your own personal trainer, will make suggestions based on your progress and calculations from the Balance Board. The Wii Remote and balance board will be used for many poses to determine the player's balance, and any movement or change in player weight will be detected and recorded once the pose is completed. Yoga for Wii features three game modes: Story mode where players start the game as a beginner and end up as a yoga guru; Practice mode where players have the opportunity to learn new poses to add to their routines; and Routine Mode, a set of consecutive yoga poses, either user-created or pre-created routines. There are mini-games to test the player's knowledge of yoga and predetermined routines created to help relieve common ailments. Yoga for Wii is beneficial for anyone who wants to try yoga and experience its unique way of training strength, flexibility, and endurance while creating a powerful connection between mind and body.
