Yoga for footbag..!?

The title of this video is: "Yoga for Hackey Sack Part 1"
And the woman claims to provide a good warmup for footbagging.

Any idea what is this all about?

Haven't seen it before, but looks like crap (the "foot-bag" in the description says all).

I would like to see those grandpas passing the HACK around though

Yeah, my guess was some sort of a publicity stunt (she'll probably soon upload a whole bunch of "warm up for _____"), but just wanted to make sure.

Aside from the author misspelling the word Hacky as Hackey, there really is nothing wrong with the three part series. In fact, yoga truely is a great way to cross train for footbag. It provides poses and movements that improve strength, balance, flexibility, and coordination. Most of the poses she uses in these videos will help provide conditioning for the muscles and joints used in footbag. The good thing about yoga is that there are so many poses that would benefit a footbag player that one could tailor there own routing to maximize results while accommodating any time constraints one might have.

As far as the age of the students is concerned, I can only pray that when I am that age I am still able to keep a bag in the air.

Peace.

Well yeah, I wasn't dissing the yoga itself (I play it on my Wiifit, hehe).

I guess I was just annoyed by the fact, that we are in the year 2009 and still foot-bag is somewhere regarded as senior citizen torque..I mean sport.

edit:
Gave it a second thought, now it's just cute
