I love Zumba! I do it twice a week. I just bought a Zumba DVD so I can do it more often. I have lost 15lbs. since January. The best advice I got from a Zumba instructor was to move with purpose. Don't make small moves. Make big moves! It makes all the difference! You gotta get your sweat on!

would like to try Zumba. How much does it cost Is there a DVD or WII game? I am a senior citizen with little income so I need to watch my pennies, but would love to find a way to do Zumba or atleast try it.

I tried Zumba, it was really fun... HOWEVER I am so not coordinated for it, me and my sister looked like dorks! LOL.

I'm sure I do, but if it eventually makes me a fit and healthy dork, I don't care! LOL

This. but being the ONLY guy with a class of 20-30 women, I really stick out. :embarassed:
Used to be 2 other guys with me. 1 enrolled in college so can't attend anymore and the other, a older gentleman in his 60's hurt himself recently so is taking a month or 2 to recover.

My daughters do the Wii Zumba with me. We love it! Eventually I'd like to try a class, but for now with the time I have available and the need to learn more moves the Wii Zumba is enough for me. I can't wait to branch out though because I always felt like if I could go to a dance club everyday that would be the perfect exercise regimen. Just replace the drinks with water

If you have community centers in your area see if they offer zumba. I currently teach Zumba Gold at one of our community centers & it's free for the participants. Good luck!

I love zumba, I do it at home with the x-box 360 kinect. I do a mixture of different workouts but I've lost 55lb's so far and I need to lose another 10lb's to be at my goal weight.

When I first joined MFP I did Zumba the 1st month and I lost alot of inches. The weight came off slowly, but when the weight started to catch up I was losing 3 lbs a week.

I just started back on March 1st....exercising and eating healthier after a 7 month hiatus. I gone from 208 to 195 lbs and I've lost 6 inches with only doing Zumba every morning. I have the three Zumba fitness dvd sets. Right now I'm doing the Zumba fitness concert and having a party everyday while doing it.

Zummmmmmmmba!!!

My zumba dvds arrive today!!! I can't wait!! I can't start just yet though because I just had a baby a few weeks ago. I haven't been cleared to workout yet. I watch the infomercial nearly every day. I'm really looking forward to this!!

Hi All, I love Zumba my exercise buddy and me take Zumba classes twice a week and a chair class (that one kicks my butt) the third day. In a few weeks we will start our 3rd Zumba night a week. I haven't seen any weight loss from Zumba but I sure do feel like I can move better but I am still so sore when we are done working out. I just restarted MFP and I am always looking for motivation and now looking for anything Zumba as well.

I am hoping Aqua Zumba comes my way soon, dying to try that!!

mrsjurado05

HI!!! I love Zumba and its the only thing that has kept me commited to going to the gym.... I do it 3-4 a week and LOVE LOVE my instructor.... I just started here on my fitness pal but have lost 22lbs in 10 weeks doing zumba and lost some inches to. Would love some friends to keep me motivated...

Mizkatemay

I have been doing land and aqua Zumba.... not noticing much change yet but know it will come....... How do you log it in as exercise on here? I have been using Dance/hip hop. Thank you!

lisarie26

So even if you're not doing all the moves correctly (cuz I just started at home) it still helps work off inches and weight?

munchgen

I have tried Zumba on the wii and didn't like it one bit... I couldn't tell if I was getting hte move right. A friend asked me last night if I would go to a class with her on Monday. I am really excited to go to my first class. I have 2 weeks to my vacation and I am hoping to loose some of my weight before I go. I am will even settle for inches. I would perfer the inches so I can fit back into my old clothes. I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

Only about 2 lbs so far, but I love it!!!

Krissi72

I've lost 18 since I started only 2 months ago! I love it! 4 times a week!

MarthaSM

I bought Zumba Exhilirate and was wondering if anyone's done it and if they supplemented the program with additional workouts. Please let me know, thanks!

I have been "Zumba-ing" 5 months now. I was down 20 lbs when I started, and am now down another 41! I started going 2 a week, then added a 3rd, and now I Zumba 5-7 days a week! I need to drop another 40 lbs or so...

For all of you that are thinking of trying it, I know it sounds counterintuitive, but don't stay in the back.... It's harder to see the instructor, and therefore even more frustrating when you are trying to learn the steps. I always advise friends who are trying for the first time to not necessarily be in the front row, but close enough towards the front to be able to see what is going on!

Seriously considering getting certified... who knows!

Congrats on your weight loss. I teach Zumba and wear a heart rate monitor to calculate how many calories I burn during class. Keep up the good work!!

Hello fellow Zumba lovers ! I have always loved dancing and when Zumba came out I LOVED it because it felt like I was out dancing in the clubs in the good ole' days LOL

I am a full time RN in a NICU and I work 12 hour shifts, so I wake up at 5 am to do a Zumba DVD or the Zumba Wii (My hubby just bought me the wireless one to use on Kinect, but I have not tried that yet lol) I love doing it early before work because I can get a GREAT calorie burn that lasts me through out the day and puts my mind in a wonderful place.

On my days Off I go hiking with my husband for about 6 miles in the mountains which is also a great calorie burn! I am currently waiting for the Jillian Michaels Body Revolution DVD's to arrive.

I have lost 200 pounds in the last 10 years.... and working on removing the last 50

melissa44

WOW! I used to be a water polo player and swimmer in college and high school, I would love water zumba, I never knew it existed lol, off to locate a place near me Thanks!
