How do keep the stupid belt from moving up off your hips and spinning around at your waist. It's driving me crazy!!!

    If you mean Wii Zumba... I put mine in my pocket OR since I got my HRM I don't bother with the remote and belt at all.

    I do Wii Zumba, and it is hard. I put it on as tight as I can on my hips and keep adjusting every break. One time the remote flew all the way out!
    It is fun though, I am not sure if I have the confidence to do a "Class" with other people yet.

    I was wondering what the BELT was...lol! I was wondering about the Wii Zumba! :)

    I do a LIVE class as well and believe me, it is nothing to be embarrassed about. In a class, there is always someone worse then you! :) GOOD LUCK!!!!

    I use my belt during Wii Zumba. I just put it on super tight. At first, I was putting it around my waist, super tight, so it would not slip. Mine doesn't spin at all anymore?!?! BUT - it doesn't pick up all my movements either. I get a bit discouraged with the whole Wii Zumba belt/sensor and because Zumba in class is so much more fun!

    I promise you a live Zumba class is nothing like a regular fitness class- the energy is so supportive- no one is watching you- their eyes are on the instructor. I know this, I am a Zumba instructor- and I am a plus size still- size 18, have about 80 lbs more to lose-that is my goal- so if I can teach a group of 50-100 people - I promise you can do this. And the connections you make in classes really help keep you motivated too.
