    Zumba is FUN! I don't know of any other exercise that can make me sweat and burn so many calories and I love it! It is just plain fun! I am NOT a dancer, do not like clubs or clubs dancing but there is something about Zumba that just works for me! I was going to a live class 3 days a week until my instruction relocated her studio :(

    I just bought ZUMBA RUSH for the kinetic Xbox 360 - Love it! even spent some $$ and downloaded LMFAO sexy and I know it!

    Good luck!

    I have done the Zumba classes and the DVDs are they are both fun. I just need a little motiviation to get started again. Once I do it, I know I will be hooked again. It gets you in shape faster than anything. I could see my waist and curves show up super fast when I was dedicated to it. I haven't tried XBox, but it sounds interesting. I will have to check it out.

    I love to teach Zumba! I have been teaching Zumba for 1.5 years, and took classes with one of the best instructors in my city. I teach 7 classes a week in three different gyms (two back to back classes on Thursdays and Fridays). I have lost about 25 pounds, my cloths fit much better, and I have tons of energy!

    I am doing Zumba for the first time this week. I have seen and heard so much about it. How fun it is, how much it changes your body, how it works fairly fast depending on your dedication to it. So I thought I would try it and see what happened. It will take a while to be able to get through the whole dvd but slow and steady wins the race right?

    Hi, I do zumba because it is tons of fun. It's just dancing to some super awesome music but by the time you get done, you are drenched in sweat. Zumba is a wonderful way to get the weight off. Once it's off you will need to add more challenging workouts for toning up such as Supreme 90, insanity, turbo fire (Any type of stregnth training. Bottom line: If you want to lose weight and have fun and meeting cool people while doing it, zumba is it...

    I do Zumba because is the only exercise that is fun and results can be seen within weeks. I teach 7 classes a week. I have been able to lose 35 pounds in the last 2.5 years. I carried my fat in the middle section, and most of it is gone. I went from size 14 to size 8. However, in order to see results you need to use your muscles when doing the movement and not just going thru the motion. Make sure that you put 100% when you do the class, you should be breathing hard, but you should be able to talk. Good luck and have fun doing Zumba.

    I like it because it's fun and it works. It's something I know I'd stick because it's fun and I'm pouring sweat afterwards so I don't feel like I've been wasting my time after the workout is over. But I must say, I've been going to live classes. And the teacher definitely makes the class. Most of my experienes have been good. But there are some instructors that I feel like I've wasted my time after I've taken their class.

    Zumba is awesome if you have the right instructor. I have tried several Zumba classes through out the year and was not really satisfied. Some are to fast and other are too slow. For the past year, I have been with the same Zumba instructor and she is awesome. I go twice a week, one day of regular Zumba and the other is Zumba toning.
