    Any of the Jillian Michaels DVDs work pretty good.

    I do the DVDs, but my daughter has Zumba for the Wii and I've done it a few times at her house. It's pretty much the same. I like the DVDs a little better just because I like the people on them (mostly), but the workouts are nearly identical.

    I have Zumba for the Kinect (Xbox) and I would imagine it is fairly similar.

    GREAT workout! I really bust a move and work up a sweat, but it's so much fun that I don't even feel like I'm working out. Best part? Only my dog can see how ridiculous I look and the crazy faces I'm making :)

    I have both the Zumba dvd and the Zumba for wii. I like the Dvd's more. The game is good, but the animated instructor with the flashing lights on every single one gets old real quick. The Dvd's give you more of the feel of other people doing it with you.

    Someone suggested Zumba for the WII to me a week ago. I went out and bought it and i have fallen in love! GREAT WORKOUT! Just like Zumba! I also workout to exercies offered ON DEMAND (free). Good luck on your weight loss journey!!

    Ive got Zumba on the wii and i love it its brill, have the feeling of doing it in your own home without people watching you its great. well worth it, you can do 20minutes workouts or 45minutes on different levels like easy hard and harder so you can test yourself. And its become well know and i know loads of people who have lost weight of it and toned parts of the body! should try it out :) xx

    I love Wii Zumba Did it all winter, loved the results. Have only done it a couple times this summer since I have out door options, but I'm looking forward to Zumba 2 coming out in November cause I will be back to Zumba when the rain comes back.

    I have the Zumba Will and I really enjoy it. It is a great workout, just make sure you have your water bottle handy. :smile:

    I have tried Zumba on the wii and did not like it. I have Wii Fit and "my fitness coach" which work much better for me. The latter really kicks butt. I guess Zumba was just not my thing. I don't think it is meant for people who have not workout before or in a long time like me, it is pretty hard to follow if you are not well coordinated.

    Love Zumba for the Wii, I wore my HRM last night to see if I was getting the same work out as I do in the class and it is very close. I say it is well worth buying.

    I just bought Zumba for Wii and tried it for the first time last night. I definitely worked up a sweat and had a lot of fun while doing it. My favorite workout DVD is Jillian Michael's Ripped in 30. I've heard all of her DVD's are pretty good though, I've been wanting to try to 30 Day Shred or 6 Week 6 Pack.
