Dance Yourself into Shape with Zumba
------------------------------------
Ditch your standard workout and bring a Zumba party right into
your living room with Zumba Fitness for Wii. Zumba Fitness is an
program based on the national dance-based exercise craze, Zumba.
The secret of Zumba is its pairing of red-hot international dance
steps with sexy Latin music which blend together to create an
addictively fun, yet challenging exercise party focused on the
joy of movement. The popularity of the workout has led to packed
gyms and community centers all around the country, but now you
and your workout/dance partners can join the party at home via
your Wii.
Gameplay
--------
Zumba Fitness uses the motion sensing capabilities of the Wii
Remote or Wii Remote Plus controller to bring steamy,
calorie-burning moves to the TV screen. The game's primary play
mechanic is the replication by the player(s) in real-time of body
moves that are demonstrated by an on-screen virtual instructor.
The core-centric nature of these moves means that gameplay for
each player requires only one controller, which is enclosed in
the exclusive Wii Remote belt included with the game. (The belt
is also compatible with the Wii Remote Plus controller) On-screen
color changes to a representation of the player in-game alerts
you to the accuracy of your moves, while a countdown clock keeps
you constantly updated on the time remaining in the routine.
Zumba Fitness also includes fan favorite Zumba instructors Tanya,
Gina and Zumba's creator Beto, who together guide you through
more than 30 routines that will make you forget you are even
exercising. Together with four-player support allowing a friends
join in the workout and an ever-present, infectious Latin groove,
players have all that they need to dance the weight off and have
a blast doing it.
