    I don't have the DVD set but I go to a class every few weeks. It's really fun & gets you sweating!

    I don't personally like it, but I know a lot of people who do. It's high energy with fun music and you don't have to have good technique or skill. It might be better to take a class though. It can be difficult to get the same energy (and thus exercise) from it unless you have others around you pumping you up. Good luck!

    I love it! If you want a workout that doesn't really feel like a workout then zumba is for you!! It's fun, energetic, and it works! Hope this helps!!

    I'm starting a class on Monday. Friends who have done it say it is challenging, fun and a great cardio workout. If you can find a class you might enjoy it more.:smile:

    I'm planning on getting the DVD set as well. I love to dance! A friend of mine has it and she tells me how much she loves it.

    I get together with some friends twice a week and we do the dvds. It's a blast. Don't "sweat" the movements, some of them are definitely not made for white girls, LOL, as long as your moving with the beat you're gonna be sweating and the more you do it the more you'll get it. Hope that makes sense.

    I LOVE IT!!! I lost my first 15lbs just getting up and going to zumba class... I bought the video set and its cool too but not as much fun as the real class i did discover go to ZUMBA.com and buy your video set there its a lil cheaper then the info-mercials, but one thing you might consider get the video game for the wii or playstation 3 or x-box 360 kinect because i got it for the wii and it is much more interactive better music then the videos....but good choice in exercise it will get you movin i don't know too many people that don't enjoy it but it is all about the instructer too
