Just Dance 2020 Game Review
A Lot or a Little?
The parents’ guide to what’s in this game.
What Parents Need to Know
Parents need to know that Just Dance 2020 is a rhythm/dancing game for the PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Wii, and Google Stadia. The game, which is the latest installment in the Just Dance franchise, includes more than 40 pop songs from today and yesterday, and players can buy additional songs as downloadable content (DLC). Usually with a supported camera connected to the console (and/or motion-sensing controllers), the game tracks your own dance moves and provides a score based on how well you mimic the on-screen dancers. Some of the lyrics have mildly sexually suggestive references and profanity, and some allude to consuming alcohol. Under the CCPA law you have the right to protect your personal information. Make a Do Not Sell request to Just Dance 2020.

Parental Efforts Required.
…but awesome to make them move!
Overall I love this game and the kids do as well. For our family the Pros totally outweigh the cons.
I was a dancer for a long time, so I suspect I may be a bit more critical of some parts of this game that an average person may not. I also tend to be a heavy on the critique of everything. I don’t give 4 stars lightly though.
Pros:
— This game is super fun and a refreshing change to zoned out video games. Colorful, fun, and upbeat!
— I love that my kids want to play this and do all the moves.
— There are a variety of songs, but most are upbeat and a good addition of silly songs/moves.
— Many dance styles mixed and varried.
— Lots of international flavor — Songs in French, Spanish, Korean (?), etc. International dance influences are apparent too — Bollywood style, tribal elements, African dance, classical, pop, hiphop, etc.
— Dances are labeled easy through advanced. You can unlock new songs by completing and leveling up with dances.
— Totally could be used as a workout tool!
There are some drawbacks however.
Most of them though aren’t big enough to not use the game for us. More like, hey game makers, improve the game a bit!
Cons for us:
— Although there is a variety of music, it’s not top 10 Pop music. A deal with Now That’s What I Call Music would be good.
Certainly there’s a lack of HipHop, R& B, Rap, etc. You basically have to go through the whole Katy Perry discography before you advance.
— Some of the dances have awkward choreography. (Think of the whitest, white man that can’t dance that you know…and him *trying* to do the Carlton dance from Fresh Prince.)
Some of that is great for fun and comedic value; for me there was too much. The wiki on this game says it was designed to give the average person some moves when they go out….but honesty, I doubt it’s being used for that purpose. If so, they’re gonna need different moves. I’d say it’s time for a new focus group.
— We want more HipHop. But choreographed by a HipHop expert….not a general dance person.
— Why do you have to level up to unlock Skin tones? Um No.
Not okay. Also, Why are all the dancers in the graphics displayed as white? Come on….
— Many of the games do have sexually suggestive moves. I’m listing this as a con since I’m not personally *totally* comfortable with my young girls moving like this. But, I also recognize part of that is my own biases and upbringing. Americans tend to be a bit prudish in this regard. And, there is a wide variance of acceptable movement among cultures. I want to raise sexually healthy humans. Shaming/ skipping parts doesn’t aid in that goal I believe.
For our family, some of the dances warrant a discussion, analyzing, and learning about why those movements may feel more natural or less sexual in other cultures. If you’re super conservative, religious, or have strong feelings about sexual movements, you should preview.
— There’s a weird doll thing going on with almost all of the female dances. It feels a bit like Japanese dolls. And, also a bit sexist/ toxic male.
AKA, my 9 year old pointed out that the version where you play against people world wide all the positive votes were for the dances with sexy women.
— I wish the game had an ‘expert’ level (perhaps the paid subscription has more complex dances.)
— Single player mode should allow for holding both controllers.
— Some of the dances seem right arm heavy. (Perhaps using both controllers would help aid in better left arm usage.) I plan to use this game to add in a mix to my workout routine, but I want to make sure that other half of my body isn’t lacking.
**I went back and looked up where/why this game was made as I suspected it wasn’t in the US based on the choreography. It was developed in Paris & Milan which I think helps explain differences in movements and sexual comfort levels. I’d love a US version with a little less doll aesthetic for the women, more gender diversity,
This title has:
Easy to play/use
Too much consumerism

Inappropriate Choreography and Negative Lyrics
Big fun for way older teens who want to learn some of the latest dance moves.
Unfortunately, a song by BLACKPINK featured choreography completely inappropriate for younger girls. Parents could easily skip over the suggestive choreography and ignore negative lyrics, but it’s unlikely kids of any age will follow suit as they’re accumulating points and learning by repetition.
After noticing other sites rated Dance 2019 for younger kids than Dance 2020, we’ll be trying that out instead.
I’m not a strict parent, but it would be great to see this game redesigned so that all levels can be enjoyed by anyone in the family,; especially considering kids generally are able to bypass parental settings.
This title has:
Too much sex
Too much drinking/drugs/smoking
What’s It About?
JUST DANCE 2020 is a rhythm game that challenges gamers to mimic the moves of the on-screen dancers. Depending on the console you own — such as PlayStation 4, Google Stadia, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Wii, or Xbox One — a camera or sensor is usually placed just above or below the television.
These will monitor your performance in front of the television and award you a score based on how well you match the pros. Even more fun than dancing solo: Players can have friends or family members join them to play with or against each other (or others online, too, if desired). Not only does Just Dance 2020 feature more than 40 tracks on the disc — including hits like «I Don’t Care» by Ed Sheeran & Justin Bieber, «bad guy» by Billie Eilish, and «Old Town Road (Remix)» by Lil Nas X ft. Billy Ray Cyrus — but players can purchase additional songs to keep the party going. Young girls, in particular, may be excited to dance to the new song «Into the Unknown» from Disney’s Frozen 2 (available Nov. 22, 2019, as a download). Not all of the games will support a camera to monitor moves in real time (the Nintendo Switch JoyCon controllers are held instead, for example), and there’s an optional app, too.
Is It Any Good?
As long as you don’t expect the experience to be different from previous games in this franchise, you’ll have a blast, especially for those who like pop and dance songs.
Along with dozens of today’s popular tracks (like «7 Rings» by Ariana Grande) and yesterday’s catchy tracks (like «Bangarang » by Skrillex ft. Sirah), Just Dance 2020 also includes «pop culture» favorites among little kids. Yes, even «Baby Shark.» And it will soon have «Into the Unknown» from Disney’s Frozen 2 available as a new downloadable track. That said, be forewarned that some songs have lyrics that allude to sex and drinking, so parents of young kids should select the Kids mode from the main menu for eight kid-friendly songs. It’s smart of Ubisoft to include this option.
With the optional Just Dance Unlimited service, you can access more than 500 songs for $4.99/month (or less, if you commit to a longer period of time). A free one-month trial is included with the purchase of any version of the game. Options for your dance floor include creating a playlist with your favorite tracks and a challenging and online-only All-Stars mode (where you’ll fly to virtual planets and perform 10 songs from past Just Dance games to unlock extra content).
It also packs the return of «Sweat mode,» which counts your calories; a co-op mode that lets you team up with friends; and an enhanced recommendation system that analyzes what kinds of songs you like and suggests related ones. While Ubisoft isn’t offering anything new in the gameplay department, you can’t beat the huge assortment of songs available, hundreds more with an optional song subscription, and several modes to indulge in. And it might just get kids off their tush and onto their feet with family and friends over the holidays.

Families can talk about music appreciation. Can music affect our behavior or mood? What type of music gets you motivated or inspires you?
-
How do games like the Just Dance series encourage kids to get up off the couch and get active? Does dancing in a game encourage you to do more dancing in real life?

Just dance — FONAR.TV
Youth
theater or Latin American dances?
I posed this question to myself in
way back in 2014. By that time student
time is over, and life began smoothly
turn into a boring routine «home-work-home».
I wanted something bright and creative.
Is it
was the finger of fate, or just right
customized targeted advertising
on VKontakte, but I came across an ad
about enrolling in a dance school under the guidance of
two wonderful coaches Dima Lunev
and Jamila Glazunova. I’ve always liked
salsa and bachata rhythms, so I immediately
I signed up for a trial lesson.
I will say
honestly, going to the first lesson was
scary. Some people, some
the same age as you, and someone similar to
your uncle, something there with hands and feet
make … a real hodgepodge. But
it is at first glance. When the coaches came
and turned on the music, all boundaries were erased
instantly. And now you’re doing something
hands and feet together with everyone, coaches
support, you succeed, you
happy and the thought “I want
Also, you need to get a subscription.
So I got
into the world of social Hispanic
dancing, which for six years has been filling
my life with incredible emotions. This
the world has pleasant «side effects»
here are a few of them:
1. Body.
you
you start to control it. Gradually
movements become smoother and
more beautiful, gait changes, straightens up
posture, even a little weight goes away (immediately
caveat, specifically lose weight not
succeed, but dance three fast
salsa in a row at a party, and your counter
steps on the phone will squeal with joy).
2. Wardrobe.
Girls
dancing shoes appear,
dresses, spectacular blouses. Guys too
include dandy. As a result, more
beautiful and stylish people around.
Still, they also meet on the dance floor
clothes.
3. People.

party, all together! For barbecues,
kayaks, celebrate new year, days
births and another 100,500 thousand occupations. If
someone has some kind of
dance question like «where
repair the car» or «how
make ice cream at home
just write to the general chat and at 99 percent
cases the problem will be solved.
4. Social
roles.
Salsa and
bachate has one general principle — partner
leads, and the partner follows and decorates
dance. At first glance, everything is simple, but
there is always one «but». Life experience,
character and «cockroaches in the head» everything
complicate. And the dances are put in their places
— slowly but surely. And feel like
you change, as yours change
students are a real treat.
5.
Trips.
A vacation without dancing is not a vacation. That’s why
as a big dance family we rush to
different cities and countries. In our school
dancing, special attention is paid to this
– Cyprus, Turkey, Germany, Cuba, China,
Malaysia, Singapore, Thailand, Spain,
Italy.
..behind every country there are a bunch
dance stories and memories.
Well, yourself

shooting clips, concerts — opportunities

no one minds, but if you want
open up and show everyone what you are
reached please open for it
all doors!

more to write, but it will be just words

«I am the most

months start rocking at parties
and leave the dance floor last. Total — not
it doesn’t matter how old you are and who you work for,
if the soul asks to dance, it is worth giving
her a chance, and we, the coaches, just her in this
help!
