zumba....?

Have you done it, do you like it-what do you think? I am not a runner (plus it is FREEZING in KC) and I have never been able to pick up the steps from the regular workout dvd's... lol. Zumba looks fun and easy which might be what I need TIA Ladies!!

I would also be interested if anyone does it on the wii

I've taken it and I just have to say that I am way too self-conscious to do it at the gym.  I have no rythym and it's just absolutely sad.  If you like to dance, you will love it!

With that said, I play Just Dance at home all the time and I would play Zumba for Wii.  I just need to be behind closed doors to do it.

This is totally me, lol!  I never seem to pick up the steps no matter how long I try, and I just feel like an idiot doing it.  In the privacy of my home, maybe.

Zumba is not easy by any means.  If you can't catch on to a regular aerobic work out video, this isn't the thing for you.  I'm coordinated, took dancing for 10 years, and I have a hard time doing it.  Problem is I can't gyrate my hips like they do and do the steps at the same time...and because I keep messing it up I get very aggravated.  If you want something super easy and that gets you going, try one of Leslie Sansone's work outs.

Have to agree with all above.  It is fast, fun and sexy, but HARD.  I am very coordinated and can usually pick up on videos in no time-but it took me three classes to pick up on zumba and that was with her doing the SAME routine for a couple weeks at a time!  Maybe you can try just one class?

They have a wii zumba game that I thought I'd like to try...just didnt know whether I should fork out the $40 or not...ya know? lol

If you are looking for a really fun way to "work out" while using the wii...I'd suggest the Just Dance games.  They are super fun and you'll sweat your ass off.
