    I absolutely LOVE Zumba! I have it for Wii and have been doing it since January of this year. I've lost 48 lbs doing Zumba and running/walking.
    That's what Zumba Instructors want to hear!!!! Go girl!
  • Actually if you have a Wii they have a Zumba Workout you can buy. It comes with a belt that makes sure you are doing the movements correctly. I think when I bought it, it cost around 50$ with the belt. :))

    what i love about Zumba is that all the instructors are so forgiving. You don't have to be perfect, you just do what you can. i've been doing it for about 2 1/2 months now and i still have 2 left feet a lot of the time. I can't do any high impact so instead of jumping I bounce up and down.:love:

    I love Zumba!! I had wanted to take a class for a long time but I was intimidated because of my size (i am over 200 pounds! ). I am a faithful Biggest Loser watcher and one episode the contestants took a class. I was hooked. The next week I started the class and I LOVE IT! I look forward to Tuesdays for Zumba!!! Try it, you will love it. The videos are available to do at home but the class experience is great! Good luck!

    There is a website that will tell you how many calories you burned doing Zumba

    www.zumbacalories.com

    Once you get the total, you can add it to your database of exercises.

    I do Zumba using XBox Kinect. This has been the best purchase.. I do SOO many fun games to supplement other DVDs and such. If you have some money to treat yourself, it is so worth buying the system.
