Does anyone have them and how is it working out? Ideally we would all prefer a gym atomsphere but sometimes I just like dvd's at home. I have been wanting to try this one for some time but $80 is alot.

    Yep, I downloaded them all (sneaky sneaky) and think they're GREAT. so much fun! and there's 20 minute ones for when you're short of time which I think is really good!

    I do zumba for free from youtube, You can find so many videos on there of zumba classes and then just make a playlist of ones you like. Here are two I made:

    You can get it cheaper on Amazon! The total transformation KIt is 55.00

    I personally haven't done it, but a couple of my friends have lost quite a lot of weight with it. They are very pleased! I am currently doing Body Gospel, which is why I haven't bought this yet, but this will be next!

    I have the old set and the new set. I LOVE LOVE LOVE them. I've been doing them regularly since January. They are a great calorie burner and SO much fun!! If they release a new set I'll buy that too just to have more to choose from. Zumba is the best!

    I have the first set and it has been worth every penny! It's so much fun and I definitely burn a ton of calories. I'm definitely getting the second set as well to mix it up after I wear these dvds out. I'm glad I got the dvds first to learn it but I can't wait to take a class because it's so much fun!

    I just got them and they are easy and fun! Plus you burn a ton of calories and they give you like five different DVDs to chose from so it doesn't get boring. Good luck!

    I just got the wii game. It was only £20, so cheaper than a few classes!

    I love them --- but I realized pretty quickly that I don't do it unless I actually go to the gym to classes.
    You get to know the people and they call you on it if you miss a class...keeps me accountable -- and I:'ve made lots of new friends!
    I also get a much better workout when I can jump around and fly all over a studio rather than my room. It's a good start but if you belong to a gym or the Y I would see if they have classes.

    I prefer the classes because Zumba is one of those exercises that I think is more fun with a group, but I do the dvds too. Especially now that the class I was taking doesn't have child care. I didn't buy them though. I get bored with exercises videos really quickly, so I just borrow them from the library.

    Thanks everyone for great comments. I so enjoy the Leslie Sansone walking dvds, they are a great workout and fairly cheap at Walmart of Target for around $10. Just saying :). I will check this all out too. I always have enjoyed working out at home AND the gym.
