    I just bought Zumba 2 for the wii and did 3 songs and received 54 calories burned per song but I felt like I was going to die (lol) after each song. I was really hoping for more of a calorie burn myself. Oh well. I'll work harder- it is fun. I bought Just Dance as well they go a little easier on you ;-).

    once you get the moves you dont feel like you will die. haha. theres the single songs you can practice with. i love pitbulls pause. once you practice and get the moves i think you do better on the workouts.

    I wanted to get this game but I just got the Kinect for xbox 360 and wonder if I should wait until February... Also, I live in a third floor apartment with creaky floors, do you think playing this game would disturb neighbors too much? I would love to play it!

    I just bought it and I'm nervous to try it as I'm completely uncoordinated! I might have to bust it out tonight after the kids go to bed. :)

    I couldn't figure out the calories. I did 4 songs and it said I only burned 64 calories and technique was nothing and so forth. ????

    Make sure you have the wiimote right side up and facing outward in your belt. There are no batteries in the belt itself. :flowerforyou:

    Me too!! Did the full class at medium intensity 3 times this week already! I'm dripping sweat when done and finish about 24 oz of water during a class. This is the most fun I have ever had burning this many calories!,

    I've never done Zumba (class or otherwise) but I WANT to. I have 3 kids, 4, 2, and 1, so I workout at home (gym membership just isn't in the cards right now). I've been wanting Zumba for my Wii, and reading all this isn't helping! LOL Would I be better off with 1 or 2, though? Does it matter for a Zumba newbie?

    I was wondering the same thing... Is 2 harder than 1? Or just jump right in on Zumba 2 if I haven't done it before?

    I dropped all manner of hints about a WIi and fitness games for Christmas but no luck. I have used my friends fitness games and loved it.

    So if anyone would like to buy me one, you can send it to me in Perth. Oh, and please include Wii fit and this zumba.

    Thanks

    I tried the Zumba 2 and I did a full class at low intensity and I was not able to finish the full class because it was like 9+ songs and after an hour it was still going. I think I will try individual songs and the short class. It was fun though. :)

    It did not come out on the kinect (disappointed) however a different version is being released in Feb. for it. Cannot wait because love zumba and my kinect.

    Wow, that sounds great. Is it on the kinect too?

    I may be mistaken, but I thought I saw it at Target for the Kinect

    I am so glad to hear all these good reviews! I just picked it up yesterday at Best Buy for $25, but haven't opened it up yet.

    I will have to keep this in mind! I bought Just Dance 2 for my Wii (I figured this will be a little easier for me to do -- neurological problems and all) but once I get my stamina up, Zumba it is! :-)

    I do Zumba at my gym and I absolutely love it. It is the main reason I joined because I love music and I love dancing. I got the 2 for Christmas and it is great!! From what I have read in the forums, it is quite an improvement over 1 as far as graphics and routines go. You can probably go to YouTube to check out videos and see the difference. From what I recall watching on previous videos, I was not impressed with the look of 1 so I was pleasantly surprised to receive 2 from Santa! :wink:
