I found it on Friday night at Target and used it Saturday night. It was fun. I didn't have a working HRM then, so I don't know what the calorie burn was.0

Hope this helps....

Ok, I just tried it out and I'm a little disappointed..the tutorials move along before I got a hang of the move and I got really frustrated with it. I think I'll try it again tomorrow when I'm not tired..
Did anyone else think it was hard at first when you had no idea what you were doing??

I tracked last night with my HRM and only burned about 92 calories in the 20 minutes. Not great, but what I needed to even out my calorie intake for the day.
As for the belt, it fits with a lot of extra room on my almost 43 inch hips.
As for not knowing what to do, I've taken Zumba classes before and I do Jazzercise, so it wasn't hard for me to catch on...I just have an issue with not matching the movements on the beginner cooldown.0 -
Tried again and loved it. Still think the tutorials go too fast. I had much more fun just winging it. I know I didn't do all the moves perfectly and I'm sure I looked like a fool but I had fun and my HRM said I burned 155 cals0

I have gone to many zumba classes and the zumba for Wii repeats the same moves over and over. It needs s little more variety. I guess is fine for those days that you just feel like working out at home.0

I have never tried Zumba before.... on land or in water! Do you have to be coordinated to do it? I love my EA Sports 2, and when it comes to the step aerobics part I am all over the place!0

Thanks for all the info, I think Im going to go buy it tonight!0

Just remember that the score at the bottom is not the calories that are burned. I thought so too, but investigated and it definitely is not. The best way to measure is to wear a heart rate monitor. My score was 495 in the 20 minutes plus cool down, so everyone is different according to how you work and your weight.0

A heart rate monitor? How does that work?0

I bought mine on amazon.com and it came with the belt holder.0

I googled it and it said about 200-250 for 30 of Zumba0

I attend Zumba classes once a week but have taken to doing the wii zumba game 4 days a week so that I am working out every area of my body on a daily basis...
I have found that compared to my class I certainly work up more of a sweat on the wii game...
The only downside to me is that it doesn't give you much time to have a drink of water between routines...
The tutorials are ok, I tried 1 but gave up and just decided to go for it on the routines. You pick them up pretty quickly.
In 1 hour I can burn about 560-600 calories so it's definately worth it.0 -
I have been doing C25K and realize I need a change of some sort because I'm not actually losing weight but inches instead. I really want the weight to come off. To change up, I decided to go get the Zumba for Wii tonight. I did the Intermediate for 45 minutes. I can already tell I'm going to hurting BIG time tomorrow. My calves and hips are already starting to ache. I sweat and boosted my heart rate! I think it was a great workout even thought I'm sure I looked ridiculous doing those dance moves. I just kept moving no matter what. I'm assuming about 250 to 300 calories but I definitely need a HRM!0
