    Hi! I hope it is not too late to join. I recently started Zumba at home with DVD and hope this challenge will keep me motivated.

    I did Zumba Sculpt and Tone DVD (45 min) this morning before work.
  • Let's do this! I am so ready!

    Just did another 45 mins on intermediate zumba party for the Wii! I added 1.5 pound wrist weights to each arm and let me tell you I FELT EVERY ARM MOVE! I'm hoping this little added weight training while zumbaing will tone up my "wings"! LOL! Will try for another 45 mins tonight if I don't collapse on the couch! :) Have a good day!!!

    And, just to keep myself honest, my arms are (regrettably) at 16" right now...
  • I'm in. Today I did 20 minutes Zumba (Tone it up DVD)

    I am so excited to join this challange. I love Zumba but have not been in a while. I went back to class last night and had so much fun I vowed that I would go back more often since it is such a good exercise.

    This challange will also help me keep that motivation up.

    Last night I did the 45 minute sculpt and tone workout, just used the weights that come with the DVD which usually feel pretty light to me but don't know if it was because I was tired but my arms are sure feeling it today! Its a good hurt tho :)

    Question: Since you are doing both (Zumba Classes & Wii) Is there a difference between the classes & the game?

    Hips: 45
    Waist 38

    I don't find a difference. The class is just more fun for me. The Wii can be a bit confusing with the steps so when I don't know what they are doing I just bust out my own moves LOL

    Thanks so much for the info. I'm on a budget & was trying to decide if I should purchase the DVDs as well, but I think I'm going to stick with the game. I thought I was the only one who made up my only steps too :laugh: Yesterday was my rest day so today I will be back at it gettin my Zumba on :happy:

    Girl, just shout ALL ABOARD!!! Cause I am so on this Zumba train...I've been taking Zumba for the past 3 weeks, and was so excited when I lost 2 inches from my waist and 3 pounds!!! I take Zumba on Sunday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday and Saturday!!! Truly thinking about investing in the DVDs. And once I meet my weight loss goals, becoming an instructor!!!



    I was thinking the same thing!!!! I'm really liking zumba and would love to teach!! Just not at the weight that i am now! lol I was looking in to it and its really not that hard to start up. Its like $285 to take your certification class and you get a bunch of materials too. I wanted to do that as well as the zumbatomic and zumba gold!

    ME too!!! I love zumb and I would love to teach it!! Hopefully it;s not too late to get in on this!!
