I know a lot of people who enjoy it, and that's fine. I really don't value flexibility, and I think it's a pretty slow strength-builder. And when people start going on about "Chi" and "Chakras" I lose all respect for them.

It's just another way of getting light exercise. Some people like dancing, some like step-aerobics, a lot of people seem to like Yoga. It's no replacement for strength training though. And none of it is more than 100 years old.
