What parents need to know
Parents need to know that this application uses an animated female model to demonstrate various Pilates techniques for players to try at home. As she goes through the poses, she offers helpful advice like "Imagine you have an accordion between your hands. Open up the accordion as you inhale, then close it as you exhale." While it's quite thorough, kids could also benefit from attending actual Pilates classes to get interactive feedback from a real instructor, who can observe and correct improper techniques. Unlike other fitness games, this one does not ask players to input their height or weight.
Educational value:
Kids will learn dozens of Pilates moves and learn some anatomy too.
