    I do not have the DVD but I attend a Zumba class on my campus. It is fun, you sweat, and trust me you shake. It is fun yet it's a workout. So expect to dance away the pounds! ! ! good luck.

    I have the DVDs and can recommand them. I love Zumba and the Dvds are great for beginners to learn the basic steps and to get a workout routine started.

    Loooove Zumba classes! Hated the DVDs. DVDs I couldn't really keep up with. But the class, the instructor can see when she needs to bring it down a notch or take it up a notch. I go 3x/week and burn about 500 calories per class. And its SO much fun. You dont have to worry about being able to dance or keep a beat. The goal is to keep moving. Nobody cares what you are doing, they are so focused on themselves and the instructor. We have a lady in our class that just busts out in her own dance moves and that makes it even more fun!

    Go try it! Usually the first class is free.

    I have the DVD's I like them, but totally prefer going to the class. If you have one at your local gym or Y, or anywhere lol I'd recommend them over the DVD's...just because I think its easier to push harder with a real live instructor than someone on TV. But thats just my opinion. :)

    As I posted in another thread "the best $70 I have ever spent". The "Lose a size in ten days" claim. BELIEVE IT! I have lost tons of inches and gained so much energy. I would have never been able to keep going to a gym for that kind of money. Good luck and have fun! It IS fun!

    I have both sets of DVD's (Latin Dance workout Dvd's & Total Body Transformation) and I LOVE them sooo much. It's well worth the money. :)
