RE: The Best Free iPhone Apps for Weight Loss
Its interesting to see Yoga being taught through an iPhone app. I have been a practitioner of Yoga for many years and I think that any way people can be introduced to it is absolutely wonderful. While I have heard mixed results on the iphone app reviews sites about exercise apps in general, this is one I may actually give a look.
