Zumba

Hi all,
Are there any Zumba fans out there?I have seen a good offer for Zumba fitness with one of the shopping channels. It looks very hard but fun. It would be something to do at home. Would appreciate any advice. Lin.

    I swear by it; joining a class was one of the best things I ever did :)
  • I enjoy Zumba but would suggest taking a class before you buy. . . for me, the fun of it is in taking the class and having other people around. You also learn the steps better watching other people. One of the most enjoyable forms of exercise I have ever done. Will be going to class this morning. . .

    I love Zumba! I bought the DVD's a few months ago. I am glad I bought them to have at home because of my work schedule. There is a DVD that helps you learn the steps (if it's the one that I have) and yes, it does take time to learn the steps and it can be difficult to start out, but it does get easier.

    I do my Zumba with the Wii and I love it. I love that it keeps track of my calories burned and progress. I did buy the DVD set but I really haven't gotten into it other than to do practice the steps. No way am I brave enough yet to do it in public!!! LOL
  • It is fun - a great way to get exercise. I think it is more enjoyable with other people in a class - but that is personal preference. The music & dancing don't make it feel like traditional exercise - it is a good workout! I take it for variety in my exercise routine:) Have fun shaking it!

    I am not a DVD work out person but I LOVE my ZUMBA classes at the gym! So much fun! The teacher mixes it up and changes up the music each class so its never the same work out twice.
