I recently purchased Zumba to have dance parties with my kids :) I had a total work out by the time the night was over? Has anyone used this as a form of their formal excercise and how did you do?

    I use it all the time. I've just unlocked the intermediate levels, but I still like one of the beginner levels best...Got to love the rock n roll twist and shuffle :P

    I use it as a suppliment to everything else I do. If I get a chance to do it that is...time is limited now due to school. I have heard from several people that they have used it and lost weight. I think it in addition to other exercises is the way to go.

    Good luck!

    I bought this but haven't used it yet - is it fun? How does it compare to going to the classes - which I hope to try later this week?

    I have it but can't figure it out. I have knee replacement and was wondering if any of them would be easy on the knee. My doctor says no running, no jumping and no kneeling so the first on on the beginners is too hard on the knee. how do I get to the twist one, any tell me, Just starting and old and way over weight so need something I can do besides walking on the tredmill which I am starting tomorrow if I can dig it out

    My wife bought it and never uses it. I bought the EA Sports Active2 which is available for Wii, PS3 and X-Box. It really gives a good workout. I started on easy and almost blacked out the first time I used it. You can follow a 9 week program and also make your own exercise routines. It is fun and really helps burn calories. Much more impressive than her Zumba game.

    I love it! Time flies by, and I know I must look like a darn fool, but I'm dripping in sweat by the time it's over.
