I'm waiting for an ankle injury to heal to try it. However after trying jazzersize I bought the zumba cd for use at home. I have no coordination at all. When I say that people say you'll be fine so I decided to join jazzersize. Figured I'd pre-pay the 6 weeks no refund that way I'd kinda have to go since I already paid. After the second class the instructor said she didn't think it was my thing and gave me a refund. I think I'll be a zumba at home kinda person. Glad to know in advance it's fun.

By the way when exercising at home and trying to learn new things close your blinds. Last month I bought an xbox and the exercise program. The lady next door was hanging clothes while I was trying the tennis. Since the Xbox has no controller she didn't know what I was doing. Next thing I knew she knocked on front door and told my daughter she should probably check on me I looked in trouble. My DD and SIL are still laughing.

I have the "Just Dance" for the Wii. I double & triple check to make sure my blinds are closed for that reason. I'm such a spaz on some of those dances....

That was funny, not about your ankle, but the 2nd class refund thing. lol, that sounds like me too! Like I said, I have to keep my eye at all times on the teacher, so I don't know if anybody else notices that I don't know what I'm doing. Also, it is fun when your friends and family are there too doing zumba.

Hope your ankle heals fast and well!

Which DVD did you buy? I am looking to buy some but not sure which one to get. I am a beginner, but I have been doing it by watching youtube. Would the exhilerate ones be ok for me?

My daughter got certified as a Zumba instructor this past April, so I've been attending her classes...lots of fun and lots of sweat. I'm down 15 lbs. : )

**To buy DVDs for at home, go to www.zumba.com. They come as a set, and have free gifts too. :)

Boy, am I out of touch! I thought a Zumba was one of those little round robot vacuum cleaners that moves by itself.
