Brits strike a pose at the bus stop

The Higher Education Funding Council for England (HEFCE) has created posters encouraging commuters to do yoga while they wait for the bus. Each poster will show one of six yoga and pilates-style positions and can currently be seen on the X41 route between Blackburn and Manchester, reports www.newslite.tv. Do you think something like this would fly in the U.S.?

What a refreshing and exciting idea!! I would love to see this tried up here in Canada. Often when I wait for a bus or airplane I do a few poses and people always looks intrigued at what I'm doing.

I'd love to see a picture of that!
