I know I've seen this posted before but I wasn't interested in it at the time so I didn't make a mental note of it. :mad:

For those who have done zumba, how do you log in your exercise. I'll actually be doing the Zumba for the Wii. I'm trying a friends to see if I like it before I buy it. Suggestions appreciated! Thanks!

    I usually just put it in as the Dancing- Aerobic, ballet, twist, etc. workout. I do the Wii Zumba too. I love it!

    I would like to know how to track Zumba also. I take a 60 min zumba class 4 to 5 times a week. Thanks

    I looked up how many calories Zumba burns on livestrong.com and added the exercise to the database a couple days ago :)

    do you just need the game,or do you need other things to go with it? I have wanted to start doing Zumba,and that would be cool if i could get the game. but dont have money for all other accessories that go along with it!

    I do ZUmba on the Wii too and just track it as Dance, aerobic or whatever is is. If you already have the Wii all you have to buy is the game and the ZUmba belt (to hold your controller) comes with it

    It comes with everything you need! There's a belly strap to track your hip movement and the game. Looks like all you need!

    Oh, and I like the actual Zumba class much better than the Wii Zumba. I do both, but Wii Zumba is hard to tell exactly what you should be doing with your feet, and it is mirror image, so that makes it hard for me. I prefer being behind someone that is doing what I need to do so I can follow.

    My HRM tracks calories burned so that is how I track my Zumba routines :~)
