They promise sculpted abs, leaner arms, toned legs and fast weight loss.
I was, however, strongly tempted with Zumba, a high-energy, dancing workout routine.
I was ecstatic!
When I was finally able to acquire a copy of the game, I took it home and was pumped to get started.
It's designed to hold your Wii remote and leave your arms free as you jostle around the room.
Awesome!
First, I needed to create a profile.
" But then I got a little confused and didn't know how to start the game.
At the top of the screen by the game title it will tell you what category you're in.
So with my profile created, I decided to begin the "Tutorials.
The downside is that once you've completed the fairly short demonstration, it brings you back to the very first lesson and you have to scroll all the back to where you left off to choose the next dance step or to repeat the one you just did.
Calypso Basic is the first dance move so, naturally, I chose that one to begin with.
Then suddenly she progresses to a more involved step and then an advanced step all in the matter of a few brief moments.
I have never felt more uncoordinated and foolish.
I tried the next tutorial and then the next and was not feeling successful at alll.
I took a break from it and went back a day later to give it another try.
In the Solo Mode, it's just you following the instructor again, but the pace feels more realistic.
Once you reach a certain energy level the teacher is joined by background dancers.
You can unlock the 60 minute "Zumbathon" in the "Zumba Class" and the "Zumba Party" modes but that is at the advanced levels.
Another nice feature is a workout calendar.
I have never gone to a Zumba class, but after the five minute warm up, I definitely felt like I was getting a good workout.
On the other hand, Zumba Fitness on the Wii is cheaper than signing up for a real class and you will experience a decent workout if you can keep up.
Why not challenge yourself and see if you can Zumba at home?
