Redesign of a Redesign

So I read this interesting little article , where they attempt to "re-design" the Zumba logo. ( read it here )

The end result , IMHO, could be better.

So here's my re-design of the re-design.

Press 'L' if you think it's better than the original.
Or leave a comment ( including your criticism ).
I'm like a field of corn.

.... all ears !
