I've already preordered mine with Amazon - can't wait - kids think I'm bonkers!!!!![]()
wicked! I didn't know they were doing zumba for the Wii, I've been wanting to do zumba for ages but dont have the confidence to go to class, think I'll get the fella to get it for me for mothers day from the kids, yey!!
My hubby has preordered this for me for mothers day from the kids, i only mentioned it on Saturday after reading this thread and by Sunday it was ordered. Like you i have always fancied Zumba, do not have the confidence or time to attend a class. Also have two left feet, so hopefully i can make a fool of myself in the comfort of my own front room.
i am going to sound daft, but what is zumba, i have heard of it but not sure what it is
Rob & Mandy, losing weight for a cruise, sept 2012.No set weight goal, just want to fit in smaller clothes & feel better about ourselves.


Its a fitness craze that is based on Latin style dancing (salsa, merengue, rumba, that sort of thing) - its exercise, but its fun!
I go to 2 classes a week at work - just found out today our regular instructor is leaving, but has a cuban man lined up as a replacement - could be interesting!
I also have a Wii, and have just got this game.

To me, it seems to be exactly like Zumba from the description - although I haven't actually tried it yet.
If it is the same, it might be of interest to all you ladies waiting for the Wii fit Zumba game to come out as its already available. Plus its only a tenner on Amazon

oohhhhh cant wait for this unsure if i want it for the wii or the ps3 tho hmmmm decisions lol x


I've finally got round to playing the My Fitness Coach dance workout game - and its definitely Zumba!
I cant say how it compares to the official Zumba game that's due out on the Wii next week - but its certainly an alternative for those who cant wait, or want a cheaper version.
I've just done the training mode and 2 songs so far, and the moves were pretty much identical for both songs, so playability isnt great from my limited experience. But it has all sorts of other things going for it for those that want to use it for fitness reasons - you can set your own workouts, or have workouts suggested by your "personal trainer", it tracks what you have done, calories burned etc. There are other things as well as the dance moves (mini-games and boxing cardio)
Still under a tenner on Amazon (£9.99 inc free delivery). They mess about with there prices a lot on there - when I bought it it wa £9.91 and last week it was some weird price like £8.52 or something!
