Zumba Fitness World Party - Xbox 360

After doing Zumba Fitness Core, World Party was kinda hard to get used to. It seems like the visual cue box is smaller and there aren't as many cues, but then again there are way more combination moves in World Party, so it's not surprising. I love the fact that you get to watch real people dance rather than avatars because it's so much easier to see exactly what they're doing. I can't praise that feature enough! I grew up taking dance lessons, so I try to really break things down to get all the moves just right, and an avatar just can't accurately convey every little movement. There are a ton of fun songs and different dance styles, which keeps things interesting. There is also a good mix of easy and more challenging dances, with most of the dances being a good workout regardless of difficulty. You can do single songs, different class lengths, create your own class, or do a collection of dances from a certain country/region. I'm glad I gave it a chance and waited to review it! After the first time I played I honestly thought I would go back to exclusively doing Core, but I haven't even touched it since I got World Party. If you like dancing and Zumba, then you will love this!

The game works well with the connect. I like the new songs and the workouts. I have this one and fitness rush, and I really love both of them. I think the routines in this one are harder than Fitness Rush. The animation is better in this one than Fitness Rush. I have been a Zumba fan for over 10 years, but it has really changed over the years! I was looking for some good cardio workouts, and these are really that and more! Tons of fun, and I love the challenge of trying to beat my previous performances. I think that is something you just can't get when you do a regular dvd workout video.

I love sumba but this was kinda weird compare to the dvd kinda threw me off. But it is pretty good.

I have and enjoy Zumba Fitness and Core, and they have kept me going for quite a while. This game was such a departure from the others that I actually checked to see if it was made by the same people. The choreography is straight lazy, which makes the routines quite boring. The graphics are great and they've updated the game play options, but seeing as how the entire purpose of the game is to do Zumba routines, that doesn't help crummy routines.

I really do like this video game. I don’t have much Zumba experience and haven’t tried the previous games. I have the DVD but that got old for me quickly. When reading some of the reviews prior to purchasing I was concerned by the comments surrounding the ability to follow the steps and that the moves do not provide the strength exercise of other Zumba videos. I've had the game for almost two weeks now and it quickly became my favorite exercise activity. First on following the steps, I had to adjust watch for the visual cues of upcoming steps. Once I adjusted it was easier to follow. That being said there are some steps that are difficult to get; however, I think some steps would be difficult for me at this stage even if Beto and his crew were with me in my living room (My Samba needs serious help). Following the tip of watching the feet first then adding the arms was helpful. Regardless it is just fun and the various styles are so interesting that not executing perfectly shouldn’t be distracting. Second, the workouts vs. Dance- There are a couple of routines that may appear as dance flair, but in general it feels like exercise. The whole premise of Zumba is mixing fun upbeat moves and music for a great workout. The Irish Jig and Bollywood type dancing alone are real cardio boosts. You may not be doing obvious squats, but if you are completing the moves partially then you work all your muscles. Adding your Zumba sticks while exercising kicks-up the workout. Although it does not specifically tell you to pick up the sticks, there is no one to stop you from using them. Overall I really enjoy this product. The few functionality idiosyncrasies are slightly annoying, but nothing that would make we walk away from this product. The variety of music, interest videos, and dance style really make this a good buy.

I just got this game and already I love it. It is very user friendly. I love that (unlike some of my Dance games) it picks up my movements amazingly, and it picks up that you are actually TRYING. I spent many times frustrated with other games because It would not recognize my movements, but this game DOES!!! Super fun. Great game if you are looking to torch some calories, also! Haven't gotten a chance to unlock much stuff, but so far there is good songs!!!

I’ve been getting back in shape with the Zumba DVD’s for a year. This is the first Zumba game for Xbox/Kinect that I’ve bought. I’ve had absolutely no technical problems. It’s a blast. I love it, my college-aged girls love it, their friends love it, my friends love it. My only complaint is that it’s hard to put together a program from start to finish (with warm up and cool down) that’s the length you want it to be. My first try at a set playlist turned out to be only ½ hour long. I’d much prefer a 45-50 minute workout. Just can’t figure out how to do it.

I purchased this game for my Xbox one about 10yrs ago and loved it. Since then, my Xbox one has been stolen but I still have my 360. I was super excited to see this was made for it as well! I'm a huge zumba fan and this game is great for getting your cardio in without having to leave the house.
