    I just got Zumba 2. Felt like a clutz, but got 5 stars, even though I missed most steps... Weird, gonna try it again tomorrow (I got it as a cardio alternative to running). Also, my HRM measured 88 calories, the game was over 200...
    Ah well, will definitely have to experiment a little....

    I loved this game!!! It was so much fun...bummed that I couldn't keep it and I had to pitch it due to the music. I have been doing Refit Rev on you tube and LOVE IT too:) Wahoo..great workouts!

    I like it a lot better now that a nice helpful person on MFP told me you had to put the controller facing up with the string down, lol :)

    I debated on getting Zumba a while back & wasn't sure about it...I got Just Dance 3 instead thinking it was kinda the same thing & I have only used it a couple of times...The Zumba 2 sounds great though...I may go & get it today....Is it anything like Just Dance though b/c I hate that for some reason...lol

    I don't have Just Dance 3, but I have 1 and 2 and I have to say, in my opinion the Zumba 2 game is way different from the Just Dance. I like the Just Dance games but I do not sweat. It takes too much time to go from one song to the other and I just don't feel it working for me. I have done Zumba four times this week since I bought it a week ago today and I sweat like you wouldn't believe!

    My mother got me Zumba 2 for Christmas. I wasn't able to use it because I was pregnant at the time. Long story short, I'm not pregnant now and have gotten back into working out. I have bad knees and knew I needed to take it slow in working out so I did the treadmill for a week before I started Zumba2. I absolutely love it. It will make you sweat!!!! and its FUN FUN FUN! I do this probably 3 times a week and do other things like treadmill or Jillian's 30 day on other days. Jillian kills my knees so on the next days I do Zumba again. I have to be careful doing some of the moves on carpet with my trainer shoes on, but for the most part, it actually makes my knees feel better if they are stiff. I like that I can mix it up and do different or longer routines and I compete with myself to do perfection :) I have Zumba 1 and this is definately an improvement to that. It takes a little while to learn the moves but once you learn a couple, you can kinda follow new ones a little better. Bear in mind I have no rhythm or dancing talent at all and I still enjoy it! Not to mention that I could not do a class where people would see me but in my own home, its Great! Try it out!!!!

    Zumba 2 has more variety of music and moves than the original. But the pace of 2 is much faster than 1. If you were doing the expert level on the first one, you probably need to start with moderate intensity on Zumba 2. I like the music and graphics in 2 much better but I've found the calorie feature pretty useless since I use my own heart rate monitor and there is at least a 100-200 calorie difference. Doesn't really matter though because I still burn about 500 calories in the mid-length moderate class. Since my doctor has forbade me to do any high impact activity because of my bum left knee, I'm going back to Zumba for Wii and supplementing other things for weight training.
