We all know Zumba as being FUN and Exciting!!! But there are several questions we always have about ANY excercise program (ie.What is it like? Have you gotten results? How long did it take? Is it a hard workout? How many calories do you burn, etc...) The same goes for Zumba!

I Would like to start "Team Zumba" on Monday April 25th for all those Zumba lovers out there! We will start with our current measurements/weight and do it consistently for 30 days (checking our progress every 10 days) I will be working from the Dvd's ... However, You are welcome if you have the dvd's OR attend Zumba classes.

Daily posts should consist of at least two things:
* Workout #___: This number will vary depending on the number of days you work out (Set your own schedule)
* Dvd Title / Length of Workout: If you are attending classes simply put "class" and the length
(You may add additional notes if you like)

I really want to get the most from this and I want it to work for everyone - feel free to let me know if there is something else I should add... This is not my thread - this is OUR thread! Remember we are a T.E.A.M. and Together Everyone Achieves More! Let's see if it's all fun or does Zumba really work! Anyone Interested? I'd love to hear from you :>)

    I have Zumba on the Wii and I enjoy it. It's not like the class, but it gets the job done. It's all about how much you put into it. But i LOVE zumba, so it's all good. Try it out.!

    Ok T.E.A.M Zumba

    Here we go with Day 1 stats. It was a good workout I was sweating up a storm, and laughing at myself the whole time. I'm a newbie to Zumba but familuar with most of the latin moves both from personal experience just messing around with friends at home and from the stuff they show on Dancing with the Stars (LOL I know its a lil cheesey but its one of my secrect addictions. ;-)) so I didnt have any issues with the moves just the keeping up part, which I'm sure will get better with time. Anywho, I'm really looking forward to seeing how my 30 Day Zumba journey turns out along with you guys. And for all you twitterland fans I will always post pics and stats updates on my twitter account @stefguerrero83

    Workout 1
    Zumbia For Kinect- Beginner 20 Mins Class 1
    Difficulty-Easy
    Total Score- 409 Zumbia Jammer

    Day 1
