Zumba: Burn It Up! - Nintendo Switch

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.

Amazing game!

I love this! It’s great exercise!

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!

This is a awesome game

It’s a lot of fun, dancing is my favorite way to exercise. I like that there are a multitude of options based on how much time you have and even multiplayer. I do think that it could be difficult for someone expecting a dance class like normal Zumba. There isn’t really any tutorial you kind of just have to do it and improve through repetition which will also give you a better score. I’m 40 and though nowhere near as good as I use to be, I danced for 23 years in classes and later teaching. So picking up routines quickly was thankfully not difficult. I would imagine someone with no dance experience fumbling a lot, but if you keep at it your score will improve with each try.Frankly I like this so much more than ringgit, I hate exercising but I love to dance so this is right up my alley.

Love Zumba, was super excited for this. Just upset that there’s only 30 songs and none that are catchy 🥹 just wish there were a more variety of songs to choose from

what a great way to lose weight than to dance to music and to move to the dance moves ,
