505 GamesZumba Fitness Wii - Bundle Pack with Belt accessory

good product

I have a few quibbles with the game, but let me summarise it this way: I enjoy Wii Zumba so much, I've stopped finding reasons not to exercise! I easily do 3-4 hours a week because it's so much fun.Let me get the down-sides out the way first:- There are some irritations with the graphics - they can make it hard to see what the instructor is doing.- And with the instructions - they're very subtle hand gestures by the instructions, as there's no spoken instruction.- And the warm-up for the Beginner & Intermediate launches straight in, i.e. you need to warm-up beforehand! (The Expert warm-up is fine.)- There's only one cool-down for Beginner & Intermediate, so I got bored of it v quickly. (The Expert cool-down is good.)- There's some moves which are very impactful on the knees: I don't do any of those. You might want to watch out for them and do something else.- Sometimes the routine hits high intensity and then quickly drops back to a very slow move: I do my own moves to keep-up the intensity- I'd done a fair bit of Salsa/Merengue/Samba/Dancehall classes & DVDs, so I got bored with Beginner after the first time, and Intermediate after four times. I set it on Expert Hard for more of a dance challenge, the workout intensity felt enough at all the levels.Now for the good stuff:- Did I mention how much fun it is and how I don't feel I'm exercising? I'm just having fun, so I love doing it four or five times a week...sometimes more.- It's absorbing, so I don't think about work, etc, while I'm doing it, making it a great break from life!- The music is 90% very enjoyable, just one or two tracks I don't really like.- The steps are fun and creative - if you've done any Salsa/Merengue/Samba/Dancehall/various African dances, you'll feel right at home. (And if you haven't the tutorials take you through it all.)- The work-out time whizzes by as I dance (and sing along!), whether I'm doing 20, 45, or 60 minutes.Overall, the game cost the same as doing four Zumba classes, and so far I've played/danced this game about 32 times, so it's very cost-effective. When I've unlocked everything and all the routines start to feel familiar, I'll be getting Zumba 2 as well.

Exactly what I said in the title. I ADORE Zumba. I usually don't like exercise and can't find the motivation to so do it but when I bought this game I have had difficulty getting off it.I was ill last week and kept throwing up so wasn't able to do Zumba and it was horrible. I was missing it so much.The songs are catchy and the dance moves aren't that hard. I did the Zumba dvd before doing this game so I knew the basics already.The belt fits around my waist perfectly. I would put it on my hip but because my body is quite curvy it just keeps sliding up to my waist.The wii-mote goes into the belt with the buttons facing outwards and the on button at the top (so the sensor is poking out of the belt.)I put it in the wrong way round at first and it kept saying I was missing the moves. I got really irritated and so I tried it with the sensor pointing up and it works perfectly now. I'm constantly getting 5 stars on the dances. Seeing *Zumba!* in the corner telling me I'm doing well is a great motivation.There's a section were you can track your calories burnt, technique, how long you have played and your weight.I have been getting all my friends to do Zumba and they love it too. I seriously recommend it to everyone. I don't like salsa music and the stuff I thought I would hear on this but there are so many good songs. If they bring out a Zumba 3 I will be preordering my copy ;)

I've been to the zumba classes but I always wanted the convenience of having the game at home. Then my friend told me that there had a wii game and I bought it straight away! and i do not regret it! It is sooo fun yet intense but it definately gets the body moving. The belt sometimes slips off so it's hard to detect movement but once it's on properly, it detects you movements well

so far i have found this game to be very good! i tried it out on the beginner level with a 20 minute session and found i was sweating by the time i was finished!i'm quite pleased i bought this having bought it on a whim im quite pleased with it. i do normal zumba in the gym and thought this would be a good idea for those days when i cant make it, it has good music and easy to follow routines (once you get the hang of it)ive not yet worked my way up to the intermediate or advanced but am definitely looking forward to them!you have the option of doing just one or two dances or however may you want or have time for, it also gives you excellent tutorials for the dances which helps you get the hang of them and the moves a lot faster!ive used other wii fitness/workout games before but have founds this one to be the bestover all i would recommend this as i do feel like ive had a bit of a work out!
