    I have it for the Wii and do it on occasion, but for me, it's much better with the interation I get in my class. I like being in the group, I like the funny comments, the encouragement, etc.

    But if you are not interested in that, you can still get a good burn at home. Just following the video will do the job, however, I don't find it as much fun.. and sometimes I feel silly dancing it up in my living room.

    I have done the class, DVDs, and the XBOX 360 game. The class is GREAT for getting extra motivation. I liked the DVDs but they got old after a while. I'm not much for working out, so the XBOX 360 game is a great option for me to have fun while exercising, but not having it feel like exercise.

    Big fan of wii zumba 2 - not "brave" enough for the class experience yet!

    I've done all - live class, videos, wii and now xbox. Classes are great - but around here they are packed and there isn't enough room to really enjoy it which is a shame because I like the interaction as well.

    The wii and xbox offer variety and as you get better you get additional songs, etc. You also have the option to do classes (short, medium and long) or just song / routine selections. They tell you approx. how many calories you've burned too. Not too sure how accurate - but it does motivate you.

    My least favorite was the video - got bored fast with routines.

    My daughter has found a bunch of Zumba videos on YouTube and she does it most every day. I have joined her once and it was a great workout.

    I'm a big zumba freak! I have it for the kinect but enjoy the classes MUCH more! I only use the game when they don't have class!
