    I've used it with just holding the remote. It's not quite as accurate, but still work-able. Good luck!

    It is to go around your waist, not your hips. You don't really need the belt though, mine doesn't fit me so I don't use the belt and just hold the controller - it works fine that way.

    I just hold the Wii remote, when I used the belt it always seemed to shift.

    You can do the workout with the remote in your hand if necessary, but having the belt on your waist is fine too!

    It will work around your waist. You don't absolutely need the belt, it is just nice for hands free movement (and to not smack yourself in the head accidentally with the remote).

    I wear mine on my hips since thats the part thats shaking through out the whole time lol and I thought thats where it went, but there were times I played without the belt. I think you'll be fine wearing it on your waist or just holding the remote.. the point is to get a workout in anyways ;) Have fun!!

    Just wrap it to where ever you can. It only looks for movement so if you are swaying around it should catch it. if you workout with pocket in your pants or shorts then try it out. or if you can sew add some material in the middle until you drop the inches.

    so i did my firt work out on zumba. It is really good. I burned 118 cals in 26 minutes - which firstly i was disappointed with myself as Ive seen other people record so many more cals doing it, but then it dawned on me - it was my first attempt and i didnt know the steps, im guess when i know what steps are coming next i can do it better
