What could be better than dancing around and losing weight?! Zumba keeps me in shape and unlike any other workout it does not become repetitive or boring. I hate the gym and I'm so glad to have a workout that I can truly get into and have fun with. Zumba is part of my everyday schedule and since it is so accessible I can workout on my own time. Now there is no need to worry about making the classes at the local gym. These classes cost a lot of money at my gym, too. When I saw I could get the same workout without paying the membership fee along with booking classes, it was a no brainer. I've been using the DVD's for a little under 2 months now and along with a healthy diet I have never felt this great. I stay toned, have more energy, and even learned some great new dances. Types of dances you'll experience on these DVD's include salsa, hip-hop, and reggaeton. One of the only issues I have with this box set is the toning sticks...they are a little chintzy. I prefer using rubber dumbbells my husband had gotten me a couple years ago: Altus Athletic 32-Pound Dumbbell Set with Stand These are the exact ones I have that are absolutely amazing. They are durable and come with a nice small stand that fit perfect in the hallway closet.
I also supplement with Raspberry Ketone Platinum (2 Bottles) Clinical Strength All Natural Fat Burning, Weight Loss, Diet Formula, 60 capsules before workouts, which gives me a great energy boost and has helped me lose weight faster. I started using it about 3 weeks into Zumba and since then I have been losing almost twice the amount of weight (was averaging 2.5 to 3 pounds a week without the supplement now about 5 pounds a week while using it) They are all natural and fit the exact criteria Dr. Oz suggests. There are several different brands out there, I just find this one to be one of the best.
I will continue to use these DVD's for as long as I can dance. Just to give you idea of my results I am currently 5'6 and had a starting weight of 171. Since starting I have lost a total 26 lbs and have toned up in places I never thought muscle could exist! If you like dancing and looking great then Zumba is for you :)

I love this Zumba set. It includes 6 workouts in 5 DVDs. Here's the breakout of each DVD:1) The first is the step by step. It is 55 min long and it shows very clearly and slowly at first the basic steps. You can even change the angle to watch from behind and follow like in a class if you prefer. I prefer to get straight to the action so I only watched it once.
2)The second DVD is the Activate which lasts for 40 minutes and I love it. It's very fun and it will make you sweat but doesn't make you suffer much. I love the 40 minute duration when I don't have that much time, the only shortcoming is that because of it you have to do cool downs on your own since there are none on this DVD.
3) Exhilarate is a 60 minute DVD, this is more tiring than the previous but it's still fun. This one is guided by Beto Perez and a very able lady.
4)Zumba Toning is a 30 minute work out mainly for the arms. The 1 pound sticks that came with the pack are too light for me so I use 5 pound weights instead although it's sometimes difficult to follow the routine. I love this one because I like to exercise my arms and you really get a tough work out in 30 minutes.
5)Mix is in the same DVD as toning and this one I love, it's 60 min of routines with music from around the world. It's really interesting and fun. All of the other DVDs can be seen with the voice instructions or without them. This one is only available without the voice unless you want to view it with the breakout of the moves which makes it a much longer routine since they explain slowly the basic movements of each rhythm before going back to the main program.
6) Rush workout is an action packed 20 minute workout. It's really good if you're short on time. I take it with me on vacation and it helps keep me active.
In summary this is a great set, has enough variety to keep you interested and you really get a good workout. I practice other sports and I mix them with the Zumba and I can feel it making a difference on my body. I highly recommend it.

Zumba is my favorite gym class so when I decided I would rather start working out at home according to my own schedule, it was a no-brainer to purchase a Zumba DVD set. The difference between this smaller set and the larger one that is priced at approximately $20 more is that the larger set includes the Sentao workout using chairs which I never intend to do, along with a Fitness Concert DVD that I'm not really interested in. If you can do without those two additions, this smaller set should be sufficient plus you will save money. Since Zumba is primarily a cardio workout, just remember to supplement it with some kind of strength training. Have fun!Honest reviews on Zumba Fitness Exhilarate Body Shaping System DVD (Multi, Small)
I bought Zumba because my friend and I both wanted to get into better shape. I was doing Insanity and she really couldn't keep up with that. She didn't really have fun with those kind of workouts either. With Zumba, we have both been able to find a happy median with working out. You sweat a lot and you have fun.I AM A HORRIBLE DANCER, but it didn't matter.
I just moved at my own pace and didn't compromise my form. I have a lot of fun doing Zumba. You really can feel the burn. This is coming from someone who has done P90X and Insanity.
If you are reviewing workout videos and don't know what to choose, I'll help.
If you can take high endurance, lots of effort exercise, and are pretty good at self motivation pick P90X or Insanity.
If you want to take your time and have fun to where you don't have to convince yourself to workout, buy Zumba. It is fun and it works!

If you have ever taken a Zumba class in a gym, you know how great it is. Unfortunately these DVDS are the equivalent of a high school talent show for Zumba insturctors showing off their dance moves. If you do happen to buy them, follow the instructors in the back row because Gina and the other big name instructors just flip their hair around dont seem to give a damn about the moves and just go off and dance around the stage. Very unhelpful.1.The camera pans in and out during critical times, often during a transition time from one move to another. Great editing...
2. The DVD that uses the toning sticks is missing the chair portion of the workout? WTH?
3. There are no warm ups or cool downs on any of the videos. Everyone is just jumping around and giving each other high fives like they are in 5th grade.
What the heck is up with this? I really was expecting a great DVD set from a big company such as Zumba. Save your money, you can find better work out videos on you-tube these days.
