    I did my first zumba on monday with my WII. I did the 20 minute choice. It was fun and I am feeling it in my legs and butt even today! I am scheduled to do it again and beat my score!

    I go try and go to zumba classes at the gym 4x's a week. It's the best workout!
  • Zumba is super fun! I don't go out to dance clubs like back in the day, so I enjoy my zumba class which is a great replacement without the cocktails.

    That's one of the reasons I love zumba so much too. I still get to dance and have a great time without the alcohol and groping.
  • Yesterday was my first time doing zumba on the wii, I must say I really enjoyed it.

    Hi everyone, I'm new to MFP and I just did my first Zumba class last week; it was exhausting but so much fun. I didn't think it was possible to sweat so much in 60 minutes!

    Hello All -- Wish I could be as dedicated to counting my calories as I am to my Zumba classes! I'd be lost without my three times a week classes with the most fabulous two instructors! I ocassionally sneak in another class if possible, but my family wonders if I'll ever just stay home for one night !! :) The music gives me the most amazing energy and it's totally invigorating for the mind, body and spirit! If you haven't tried a really good live class, you should!

    I am doing the Wii Zumba, and I will eventually join a class, but I want to learn the moves a little before I join the classes. I was so pleasantly surprised at ow much rumba worked my core. I could feel a pleasant ache the next morning!

    I did a few Zumba classes when I was a member at CURVES. The gym was to expensive and I started working out at home. Bought a lot of DVD's and Wii discs. I Do Zumba 2 for Wii at least 4 times a week so far, 45 min. It's a great workout and a lot of fun. Much cheaper than the gym. I was thinking of getting the Zumba Dvd's. Anyone try it?

    I haven't tried it but I probably should.
  • Hi everyone,

    I am new to MFP today, but not new to nutrition or exercise. I'm a long term Steroid user for a medical condition and paritally as a result at the much heavier end of the scale than a lot of people here I guess.

    What I would love to tell everyone is, if you want to do a Zumba class, but not quite confident, just go for it, I am probably twice the size of most of the people in my class, it's the most fun exercise I do, I do 2 classes a week, plus other exercise and it just becomes such a bug! I also have Neurological problems which cause me slight balance problems but the high impact level helps me there.

    Enjoy :)

    I love Zumba! If you haven't done so yet, I strongly recommend you find a jingly belly scarf and wear it during your classes. It really makes you feel sexy and you can hear how hard you're shaking it.

    I'd wear a tiara too, if I had one. In fact, I think I might go buy one just for Zumba class.

    Zumba has helped me lose 50lbs! I go to live classes 2 times a week, and also use the Zumba Rush w/ Kinect and the Exhilarate DVD's to work out at home.

    Currently working towards my Zumba license :)

    Nothing makes me happier than my Zumba classes. . .I try never to miss them! I am trying to get into the habit of doing a workout at home. I have my ipod set up with great zumba music for a 20 or 30 minute a.m. workout, but I just can't get into the swing of it :)

    Hey guys!!

    I've been doing Zumba everyday at home. Cant afford to go to classes so I brought the 4 DVD set for £20. I do cardio party and sculpt and tone on alternate days and its by far the best exercise ive ever done! So much fun!! and because its at home i can go as crazy as I like! My weight has been fluctuating recently so I started back on the diet this week. At the moment im having a slim fast shake for breakfast (mainly because i never have time for breakfast) I have pitta with humous for a snack or maybe some strawberries or snack a jacks. Lunch i generally have pasta with salad or grilled chicken with salad and then for dinner i have salad potatoes and eggs/chicken/fish.
    So far this week i have lost 2lbs yay! So fingers crossed this keeps going! Sisters getting married soon so I wanna at least have lost 11lbs by July!

    Good luck to everyone else on here!!
