Anyone doing Zumba Core on the Wii?

Options
Anyone else here doing Zumba Core for wii and if so have you noticed any results so far? Im starting today and could use some friends who are also doing it for motivation! I've played around on it already and love it! It didn't feel like I was working out but at the end I could tell that I had gotten a really great workout! Anyway, feel free to add me if you are!

    I have Zumba 2 on the Wii and am expecting Zumba core for Christmas.

    Nothing makes me feel better than zumba. Great calorie burn and endorphin rush.
    Tonight I am going to Zumba class with the neighborhood ladies.

    I wear a HRM while I do it and the calorie burn is sick. Even higher than their estimate.

    Awesome! I've never taken a Zumba class, this is my first experience with Zumba. I can't wait to see how many calories I burn with it, I wasn't wearing my hrm yesterday when I played on it, so im very excited to see!!

    Last Sunday, I searched Craigslist and scored a Wii console and Zumba 2 for $85!!! You want to know what burns more calories that Zumba? Zumba while holding a 35lb toddler! LOL- my kids like to get a little too involved, but it's nice to have some cardio available in the house on my own. I'll be following this board...

    Wow! Thats a great deal! I can't imagine holding a kid while doing it! lol I just did the Medium Intensity workout and burned 315 calories in 45 minutes, it would have been more, but I got lost on some of the moves lol! Im probably gonna do more tonight! I loved it!!

    I plan to start Zumba 2 on Friday (it's being shipped from Amazon today) and have asked for Zumba Core for Christmas. I can't wait to start. I've wanted to take the classes but all the ones that are local clash with my schedule. So excited for Zumba on the Wii!

    My sweet husband bought me Zumba Core for the Wii. I have been going to Zumba classes for like 3 years now, and I still go (nothing beats the real class) but I absolutely LOVE this game. In the mornings before work, I do a "medium length" class (around 45 minute) and I burn 450-500 calories. I really love doing the high intensity full length classes (that's what I'm used to) but I love the burn I get from any class.

    People ask me all the time what I do to lose weight/inches, and they're always surprised when I say Zumba. So many people are embarrassed/nervous to try it, but it's so fun and it really doesn't feel like exercise. I love lifting, and I like rocking out to my iPod at the gym, but that can get repetitive. After years and years of trying new things, Zumba is the *ONE* thing I keep doing, and still enjoy.

    I plan on buying Zumba 2 just to keep it interesting!
