In Dance Central 2 you can create custom Fitness Playlists to help you really get your heart pumping during dance sessions! To help you get the most out of your Dance Central 2 sessions and work your trouble areas we've put together playlists for you made up of tracks from the original Dance Central, Dance Central 2, and DLC designed to work specific parts of your body! Whether you're just looking to feel the burn in your legs or really want to put your core to work we've got you covered!

HOW TO CREATE A CUSTOM PLAYLIST

You can choose among pre-generated fitness playlists that can be accessed from the FITNESS option in the Main Menu for the ultimate calorie burning session! Or you can create your own custom playlists with songs from Dance Central 2, purchased DLC, as well as the original Dance Central (if songs are imported). Playlists support up to 20 songs. To create a playlist, select DANCE in the Main Menu, then in the song select screen, select MAKE A PLAYLIST. Choose up to 20 tracks from the song list and then select FINISH AND PLAY to jump in! To go back and edit one of your saved custom playlists, select one of your playlists and select the EDIT option to add or remove songs.
