Zumba?

Can anyone recommend some DVDs or streaming Zumba workouts? I took my first class today and really loved it, but I can't go to the regular time slot at my gym.

Zumba Strong is good. I saw it in Wal-Mart for 9.xx. It has 2 workouts on it - the 20 minute workout that is also available on YouTube and the 60 minute workout (which has a modifier if impact/intensity is not your thing).

Also, found a Zumba set on clearance at Wal-mart that has Zumba Max 1 & 2 in it, can’t remember the name of the set, but it was on clearance for 5.00.

Zumba Max is great and is the 60 minute version of Zumba Max 1 & 2. I love all the workouts in the Zumba Incredible Slimdown set.

I also like Zumba 101 (which has 2 workouts that are great for easier days).

ETA: I’ve never taken a live Zumba class so not sure how these workouts compare to a live class.

Keep in mind that Strong by Zumba (not Zumba Strong) contains no dance moves, but instead regular exercises and plyometrics synchronized to music.

It's so much fun to take a "live" class for the energy of the people and instructor but I never felt very coordinated in the beginning. It's so much easier and practical to use a DVD, even though the experience is not the same. You'll also find instructors are not all the same in ability, so there are wonderful instructors and some that are not so great.

Yes, the live class had a fun factor that I don't see on the videos. Amazon Prime has a number of freebies I see but I don't really like them near as much as the live class.

Kardio Kim Johnson used to have a lot of 1hour live class videos on her web but now the links don't actually have videos anymore.

I'm the same way about Zumba. I tried the DVDs but they don't feel nearly as fun or offer the same energy as dancing in a roomful of people.
