It's so much fun!! I can't wait for the next class! I love to dance and workout so this is perfect!!

Has anyone else tried it?

I know Pam does it, I'd like to find a DVD to do it with, so I'm going to look. I think it sounds like fun and great exercise. I actually saw them doing it on a tv commercial for a fitness center.

I Love Zumba! I have been doing it for about a year. I also have the disks to do it at home!!

I'm a Zumba instructor and LOVE it! I teach Monday mornings and actually love getting up for Mondays. It's great exercise and so much fun - it will make you more likely to keep doing it. Have fun, and if ou are ever coming to Myrtle Beach, let me know!!!

Can you recommend a good Zumba DVD?

I just love Zumba. I have been doing it since August. I started with 2 days a week and now I am up to 3 days a week (I go tonight as a matter of fact) Love the workout....music...energy it gives me and I can completely see a change in my body shape.

If anyone can recommend a great at home DVD let me know too. Would love to order one to have at home during bad weather!

I was thinking about copying some videos from youtube and making a workout out of them. I had a hard time getting out in the cold to go this week too!

I've been going to Zumba Gold but just went to a regular Zumba class on Saturday and I really like that one better. More fast-paced and there are more songs. Just don't try to clap your first day there. I got off the beat and totally felt foolish.

I like the 4 dvd set - you can mix it up and it teaches the various steps. That can make a difference if you step into a well-established class.

I actually have my certificate for Gold, but I know my class is faster and higher energy than some "regular" Zumba classes. I give a lot of modifications to bring routines up or down. The good thing with Gold training is that they teach you about possible injuries for different populations, so I can take a high energy/high intensity song and make sure it's safe for pretty much anybody.

I got an invitation to go next week and am going to try it out with my friends on Monday.

So Tricia, how was the class?

I saved some of Nathan Blake's and the NC girls workouts as my favorites on my computer and then use them on off days when I can't get to a Zumba class. My instructor told me that Nathan was in Syracuse this past weekend and she said his class was awesome.
