About Zumba Fitness
The Zumba Fitness Total Body Transformation System includes four DVDs and two toning sticks. |
Zumba Fitness® is the only Latin-inspired dance-fitness program that mixes red-hot international music, produced by Grammy Award-winning producers, and contagious steps to form a “fitness-party” that is downright addictive. Since it is inception in 2001, Zumba Fitness has grown to become the world’s greatest and most successful dance-fitness program with more than 10 million humans of all shapes, sizes, and ages taking on a weekly basis Zumba classes in over 90,000 locatings all over more than 110 countries.
As a fitness instructor in his native Cali, Colombia, the life of Zumba program’s founder, Alberto “Beto” Perez, took an unexpected turn one fateful day in the mid-’90s. He darted off to instruct an aerobics class and forgot his established aerobics music, so he improvised using his own mix of music from tapes he had in his backpack (the salsa and merengue music he grew up with). Spontaneously, he devised a new kind of dance-fitness, one that focalized on letting the music move you (instead of counting reps over the music). Energy electrified the room; people couldn’t stop smiling. His class loved it! And on that day, a revolutionary new fitness conception was born–the Zumba Fitness-Party.
In 2001, Beto brought his new dance-fitness style to Miami, Florida, and, through a student (Alberto Perlman’s mom), met enterprisers Alberto Perlman and Alberto Aghion. All three hailed from Colombia and all three had a imaginativeness to fetch this dynamic dance-fitness class to the masses. The three Albertos formed an confederation and devised a business, calling it Zumba Fitness. They trademarked the word Zumba® and set a goal to exaggerate the brand all over the world. First came the DVDs, then the infomercial–which introduced the Zumba Fitness-Party to the public on a wide-scale basis. That followed with the demand for Zumba classes and Zumba instructors and then the company took off and the Zumba program expanded in a big way. By 2005, Zumba Fitness spawned a full-fledged Zumba Academy to license Zumba Instructors to instruct Zumba classes. More elaboration followed with the launch of Zumbawear apparel and accessories, music CDs, and in 2008, one of the bestselling at-home fitness DVD series ever–the Zumba Fitness® Total Body Transformation System–which starred Beto and introduced Zumba Fitness’ most recent stars, Tanya Beardsley and Gina Grant. In 2010, Zumba shook the ground by being the initial branded fitness program to launch a video game on all three major gaming platforms: Wii, Xbox, and PS3.
Fast forward to today, the Zumba program is now taught in gyms and studios all over the world to millions of Zumba enthusiasts. And as the program proceeds to evolve from it is modest beginnings, to a international movement, to a way of life–its growth has only deepened the company’s commitment to supplying accessible fitness, without the strain, without the sacrifice, just the pure joy of a party.

FUN!! By Danie’ Okay, okay, I fell for the infomercial. I was looking for something that was pure cardio and this actually seemed to fit the bill. So I gave it a undertake and I don’t have any regrets! Honestly, I had four other dance workout dvds in my Amazon wishlist–after doing the Zumba 20-min workout, I deleted the wishlist. No kidding.
What you’ll unquestionably need: WATER!! And a great deal of it! Also, a little room to dance around in. Of course, the workouts and the toning sticks are provided for you.
What might need: Since the toning sticks are crazy light (1 lb. each ??), you may want to throw on a pair of weighted hand gloves if you have them. I’ve likewise tried just using regular hand weights but at the fast pace of this workout and since the toning workout is “dancey,” they were a little difficult to handle.
Workouts: The basi principles “workout” isn’t in truth a workout but breaks down the moves using a 3-step routine working up to the full dance move. (I’d break it down but there’s 20+ moves) This is in regards to an hour but, I feel, well worth the watch, even if you are a seasoned dance dvd phenom. And if not, the moves are super easy.
The other actual workouts, of course, use the moves from “basics” but likewise does variations of these moves (don’t worry, they’ll give you a heads up.) Some mainstay dance routines are Samba, Merengue, Reggaeton (my fav!), Cumbia, Mambo and Salsa but I was enjoyably astonished that were more styles of dancing included in the workout other than Latin. Cardio Party (my fav!) has an “American Mix” division that features a bit of country dancing and an ode to 1950s Americana. There’s also a great deal of African steps that are in truth fun, too (you’ll see them in Zumba Sculpt and Tone and in Zumba Live). You’ll likewise see some bellydance (kinda, sort of) and Flamenco.
A few things that might trip you up:
1. The cueing, though not terrible, could be a bit better.
2. During the “basics” workout, Tanya (??), the girl who co-hosts the workout with Beto, says to just keep to beat. This tidbit actually comes in handy because there are a few (VERY few but noticable) editing issues. So you might think you’re on the defective foot when in reality, the editor messed up. But no worries, the scene will cut and everything is back to normal. (In other words, just keep in step with the beat of the music and eventually, you and those working out of the dvd will be back in unison.)
3. Beto has a REALLY rich accent so it may be sort of hard to pick what he’s saying at first. I found, after doing the workouts a while, my ear has become more apt at understanding him–so perhaps it will for you, too.
A couple of personal pet-peeves:
1. The toning sticks. They seemed like a great idea but the uninterrupted raddling kind of started to get on my nerves.
2. After each routine, there’s this pause to introduce the next routine. I’m not genuinely sure in regards to how I feel when it comes to this because most times I think “thank goodness, I thought I was gonna die.” But other times I feel like the breaks just slow down the workout. Jury’s still out on that one.
Overall: What else may I say that I haven’t already. I actually dug this workout. ‘Nuff said.
*Side note: I recognise there has been a heap of debate over price on this item. I love this workout and purchased this from Amazon (only 60 bucks + free shipping at the time), but seriously, it’s genuinely not worth spending over $100 for.

Great Set- Different Than the Class By ashu16 I started taking the Zumba classes and was so in love with them that I wanted to do them at home. After researching the Zumba DVD’s, I stumbled all over this set and purchased it. I loved it- but it wasn’t like the Zumba Beginners class that I was taking. The original DVD is a beginners DVD that shows you how to do the steps, and includes a 20 minute workout. I am a somewhat fit, active female, and broke a sweat in no time with just the instructional DVD. They break each step down into ‘easy’, ‘medium’, and ‘hard’ so you may learn the steps and be confidant sufficient with them to move up into the other DVD’s. Other reviews thought this was lame- I genuinely loved it. It was very helpful, here I thought I knew the steps all along and I in truth didn’t. It will likewise aid me with my class. The 20 minute workout is likewise a good beginners dvd, but I assume would get old after you get good at the moves. The Zumba Live DVD is in all likelihood most like the Zumba classes, where there is no instruction, and every one is just dancing in rows. Surprisingly, you may pick up what they’re doing, and I in truth didn’t see them use the moves you learn from the initial DVD too much, it was a little more freestyle. Beto, the creator of Zumba is kinda crazy- he’s hard to understand, but the other female instructors are great and easy to follow.
I likewise thought this was very dissimilar than my classes. I was hoping to listen a good deal of of the same music and routines that I see in the live classes I attend, but it’s different- not better or worse, just dissimilar than I was expecting. The ‘weighted dumbells’ are kinda lame- they’re long, and not real heavy- I haven’t employed them yet because I find it hard to add yet another dimension to these moves still. You want to make sure you have a good area in front of your TV to do this on, and that you have the capacity to jump and move your body weight without having to worry with regards to things falling off bookshelves and such. The reviews that this was cheaply done and put together are false- how could it be cheap? It looks gorgeous clear from the pictures what you’re getting. There were various DVD’s and a dumbell set and I thought Amazon.com’s price was reasonable for what you get. I don’t know what these other people were expecting. I guess this is going to be sold on infomercials, but I have yet to see one yet- it’s put together by that Gunthey-Renker brand that touts various other ‘as seen on TV’ products.
In all, I would highly commend this, and commend you wear hip-hop shoes (like the Bloch S0538L sneakers), and as few clothes as possible- each time I undertake to do this in a tshirt, I end up having to put on a tank by the end of the workout. Get ready to sweat and work your butt off- and you’ll be well on your way to calling for hip substitute surgery after all this latin dancing!!

Amazing!!! By Yoruba I was looking for a workout that I could do in amidst the days I run and box. I thought this DVD was just going to be a fun break…Its fun but unquestionably not a break. I purchased the dvd’s and popped it in thinking I was just going to do a quick look see before I did it later in the day. It looked like soo much fun I ended up just jumping in..and before I knew it 30 min had passed. The music is great! If you are a unfeigned lover of latin music you will def. be capable to be grateful for the beats and the spanish language(none of that cheesy americanized stuff), it is like going to a real latin club. You will sweat if you move (supposedly you may burn amongst 500-1000 cal/hr!!!). Your waist will feel tight after just one work out- the abs division is amazing!! no more lying down..and it actually looks/feels more effective. The moves are easy -for the non dancers it is more comfortable to get the moves if you feel the music firstborn and then work on the steps- the moves are broken down very well. Ive employed the “samba basic” clubbing and it looked very authentic on the dance floor. Get it! Get it! You will love it -its fun and you will get results aerobically/tone and learn to dance all at the same time…
