Zumba: Burn It Up! - Nintendo Switch

Very fun, love the workout I get from this, and best part is my kids love it too and don’t realize they’re exercising

Love that you can do single songs, 15, 30 and 60 minute workouts. Great for endorphin boost at home & I get hella cardio minutes on my watch.

I got this as while I love going to Zumba classes, I am not ready to go back to in-person classes yet. It's a great way to get a workout in and you're in charge of how long, what intensity, etc. It's fun to dance with the instructors on the screen (including Beto!!) and the music is exactly what you'd hear in a class. My only criticism is that if you are unfamiliar with Zumba classes, then the way the instructors jump right in to the songs may be startling. They don't break down the moves, they just do them. There is cuing but it's subtle, and upcoming moves are previewed in a box in the top right corner. You can have an idea how long you will repeat the current moves by paying attention to the bar under the center dancer. But none of that will matter if you're brand new to Zumba. If that's where you are, I suggest doing 1 song at a time until it makes more sense, then build up to a class. The warmups and cooldowns aren't included either, so be sure to do your own stretches before and after to prevent injuries. Overall it's a lot of fun and will tide me over until I can get back to in-person classes. And it's a bargain too. For $30, it's less than I pay for 1 month of classes.

I've only used it a couple of times and is super fun, not sure if it helps to lose weight.

A to fun workout, easy to follow

I love Zumba, but only if I can do it in the privacy of my own home. This game is perfect for that - the songs are SO fun and the moves challenging enough. I like that there are options to do short, medium, or long classes (15, 30, 60 minutes) or even single song selection. There are enough songs that you can get a good variety for a workout; eventually you'll get through them all, but if you're like me and replay your favorite workout DVDs over and over again anyway, this won't bother you. My only gripe is that sometimes when I'm dancing, the game will randomly say I've missed a move that I for sure haven't. It must be a technique thing with how I'm holding the joycon or something...I vaguely remember this being an issue with wii fit, but I'm not much of a gamer so I'm not sure of the best techniques. If you're trying to get perfect scores, that will frustrate you! Aside from that, it's a really awesome way to get in some fun exercise and I love it!

Perfecto

If I could give it zero stars I would. I have tried everything to get it to sync movement, well lit space, moderate lit space, position of device, different hold on controls, and more. No matter what has been tried it seems like there are several songs that just dont work and consistently say "miss" even though you are following along and have done the mirrored motion like it says. If you're easily frustrated I wouldn't recommend it. Go to YouTube and find a work out to follow along there. At least then you won't babe that annoying little tracker in the corner saying you've missed steps when you know you haven't.
