Thanks for the article. A few corrections: Casarez and I am the Atlanta-based Wii Fitness Examiner, your insider source for everything local. I'm so glad to see that you are promoting the uses of Wii in your field. Can't wait to read some more of your blog. Would be nice to compare notes between a fitness instructor's perspective and an OT. Keep up the great work!

Dear Mershon,
I think your blog is great and have read you are even teaching a course on Wii-hab at Allegany College.
I am evaluating the use of Wii-hab in other therapeutic areas and would really like to get your opinion over the phone or in person.
If you like you can contact me at viacuzzi@gmail.com
thanks!
