Looking for zumba friends. I have done some zumba before and loved it, just joined a gym that has 14 classes a week, oh my god it's going to be so fun!

Trying to decide what weights to get for zumba toning. I am thinking 2.5lb weights to start out with, they sell the 1lb ones at the gym and 2.5 lbs,not sure if I should go with 1lb, was going to also try to find hand weights at walmart and save some money :)

What's your favorite song to zumba to?

    I love Zumba! I wish my gym offered it more often :(. I try to go twice a week, but always make my Wednesday class. Love it!!

    Not sure have a favorite song... They keep changing my routines on me though. Still love it though!,

    I have the Zumba Exhilerate cds at home and try to do an hour/day. Don't really have a favorite...I love them all.

    I love, love, love Zumba. I've lost 19 pounds in just under two months with a Zumba-heavy exercise routine. I do Latin ballroom dancing, and Zumba gives me a chance to get my dance fix. I can go out dancing very often because I have a child and can't always get out. As for a favorite song? I really don't have one. I have favorite moves, though, although I wouldn't know what you'd call them. Lol.

    I'm a total Zumba addict, and I wouldn't have it any other way! I was first introduced to Zumba in college, and since I graduated in June of last year I've been doing the video workouts and Xbox game since I didn't have a gym membership.
    However, I joined a local fitness center a few days ago and went to my first live Zumba class in over a year, and remembered how great it is!! (even though the video workouts are great too)
    I love most of the songs, but one of my favorites is Rain Over Me.

    Any Zumba lovers out there, feel free to add me :-)

    Zumba is by far the most fun I have working out. I started taking classes in January and am addicted!!! I am a teacher and have been trying some new classes at my gym this summer but Zumba is my first love! I am trying to get my schedule all mapped out for once school starts cause that thing called work is about to cramp my workouts. Grrrr!

    Please feel free to add me because I would love to have more Zumba friends!

    I LOVE Zumba. You might want to start with the 1lb weights. I know they seem really light, but when you are doing songs that keep your arms up throughout the entire song, your shoulders will really start to burn. LOL
