I danced my way through high school, college, and young adulthood. While I still retain my love for dancing, I gave up late nights out when I started dating my husband (who ironically does not share my love for dance). These days, I get my dance on at home!
A little over a year ago, Ubisoft, a leader in the gaming and interactive entertainment industry, released Just Dance which sold over 3 million copies! Capping on it’s success, Ubisoft launched Just Dance 2, which features a brand new track-list of over 40 popular songs and improved movement detection. Gone are the days of sitting on the couch, controller in hand, eyes glued to a screen. Gaming today is interactive, physical, and fun.
One of my goals this year (and every year) is to get more active. I always feel like I could do more to keep my body in shape. I tire and get bored with fitness videos and traditional exercise. While I still power walk with my kids, I need something to keep me motivated. When I discovered fitness gaming, it really changed how I viewed exercise. I no longer felt like I had to go to the gym or take a run to achieve results. Dancing on the Wii is enjoyable and I can get a great workout from it.
Just Dance 2 features tracks from classic hits, legendary songs, and music that’s currently topping the charts. I have to admit that I like the music much better than that featured on the original game. The game offers a variety of music and dance genres and each track features it’s own choreography by real experts. If you want more, you can download tracks from a catalog that is frequently updated.
Just Dance 2 is fun! Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, you’ll find that you just can’t get enough of it. The game is challenging enough to keep experienced dancers interested. Beginners will appreciate the repetition which helps with mastery of the moves.
Dance solo or invite your friends over (can accommodate up to 8) for a dance off. Want to really burn those calories? The Just Sweat It Off mode will motivate you to dance of those calories, get your heart pumping, and perhaps shed that holiday weight.
Just Dance 2 is available exclusively for the Wii and retails for $39.99.
