    is the wii zumba anything like the "just dance"? My kids love that one, but I'm always looking for more ways to keep them moving during these winter months :)

    I got it for Christmas as well and I like it. It is pretty tough for me though because I cant dance (: but I try. I love just dance as well but I feel this is better because you put the control on your hip in a belt so it tracks your hip movements instead of your hands that way there is no cheating and just moving your hands. You have to move to get the points simple as that. And its fun even for someone who doesnt know how to dance!

    It's fantastic! I actually bought the Wii just for the game!
    Got it a few weeks ago and my husband is seeing results!! ; )

    I went to quite a few live classes before, which were fun, but I'm a little shy in front of alot of people, so I bought the game!
    Doing Zumba at home, I've found a whole new side of myself! Booty shaking?! SO fun!!
    I find myself sweaty after just a 20 minute workout in the game!

    You start out with 20-45 min workouts. From Easy, Intermdiate to Expert. You wear the zumba belt (comes with the game) on your waist, and slip the Wii remote inside the belt. It reads your hip movements better this way. The game scores you on how well you did, but my meter is how my pants are fitting ; ).

    Invest in it, it's super, and will leave you feeling fit and sexy!

    Is there any way of viewing your previous scores? So that you know whether your improving or not? :)

    Im so glad this has been posted! Do guys do zumba too? as much as though I like the idea of being surrounded by spandex clad ladies in a zumba class type environment, I dont have schedules that permit a commitment to a class and was thinking of getting this for the wii!

    I use wii gold's gym routinely and it really DOES make me sweat!

    I got Zumba 2 for the wii for Christmas and it is my new best friend. I love how you can create your own routines on it too. I highly recommend this game. So fun upbeat energetic and on days when my body is sore I can do low intensity and still get an amazing workout. A must have for sure.
