Interactive fitness gaming in the comfort and privacy of your home

With fitness on the Wii, players interact with the games and activities in front of them. Exercises aren't just shown – they're taught. The Balance Board and Wii Remote let your Wii console monitor the movements that are made, so the on-screen instructor can gently correct and optimize their cardio, aerobics, balance, yoga and strength training workouts.

For a fraction of the cost of a gym membership and personal trainer fees, a virtual trainer will guide players through a customized program designed to fit THEIR needs. So even if you are a beginner or just getting started on your health goals, Wii fitness will conform to fit you.

Wii Fit is trusted and proven, and has been endorsed by the American Heart Association² and the UK Department of Health³. You can find Wii Fit and other Wii exercise games at schools, hospitals, rehabilitation centers and assisted living facilities all across the country.
