 False Advertizing January 31, 2010

The product description of this item claims it's "an exclusive instructional DVD with 60 minutes worth of music to help you Zumba your way to the perfect body." It claims to provide "Hot moves that make you feel like you're on the dance floor-not on the elliptical machine!" This leads the buyer to believe that there will be a work-out provided on the DVD. There isn't. The DVD consists of a few minutes of basic Zumba moves and the rest is music -- just music, no moves. The buyer is expected to create his/her own workout from reading the book. The book's title is: "Zumba: Ditch the Workout, Join the Party! The Zumba Weight Loss Program." Only half the title is appropriate. You do get a weight loss program. But if you are new to Zumba, and want to learn how to "Ditch the Workout" and "Join the Party," you are going to have to buy another Zumba product. I can't give this more than one star, due to shady marketing practices.
Warning - False advertising - No workout DVD! December 26, 2009

This is not a balanced review because I'm too upset. My daughters wanted a Zumba workout DVD for Christmas. I thought I was buying a basic Zumba workout DVD. I was totally surprised to find a book was delivered to my door. Even more surprised when my daughters said the DVD is nothing close to a workout video. We are all disappointed. Beto Inc. have certainly learned the techniques of crass and deceptive commercialism.

Zumba is the workout program that has taken the fitness world by storm. It features a fun way to dance yourself into the best shape of your life. Zumba consists of a high energy fitness routine that includes salsa, samba, and the meringue. Its sultry Latin moves are easy to learn and are very effective in burning calories.
The ability to learn Zumba without joining a health club is now available through Beto Perez and Maggie Greenwood-Robinson book Zumba(R): Ditch the Workout, Join the Party! The Zumba Weight Loss Program. The book is priceless, not only do you learn the moves of Zumba by viewing the in-depth illustrations it also includes an instructional DVD, along with the Zumba diet.
I discovered Zumba approximately six months ago at my local gym. From the first class I instantly fell in love with all that it offered. Within six weeks of practicing this workout routine twice a week, I lost more weight and inches than with anything I had ever tired. What is so amazing is that it had kept my interest; I now look forward to my Zumba classes each week.
Get an early start on your New Year's resolution to lose weight and have fun doing it. Zumba(R): Ditch the Workout, Join the Party! The Zumba Weight Loss Program is the only book you need to help you achieve your goal. Once you see that you can actually have fun and lose weight you will quickly become a Zumba fan.
ZUMBA PARTY!!!! December 5, 2009

I have been taking ZUMBA classes for the past 6 months at a gym and they are absolutely fantastic. But I began having scheduling problems and couldn't always make it to the gym to attend a class. I decided to buy this book along with the lastest ZUMBA DVDs (from their website) and now I can have a ZUMBA party anytime at home. What I love about the book is the background history of the creator, Beto Perez and the history of how ZUMBA got started. It gave me a deeper love for Zumba. Get this book with the DVDs and get ready to party!!!
I loved it and have been using Zumba since I read the book! November 30, 2009

I honestly had never heard of Zumba before I read this book. When I flipped through it to see what it was about I noticed there was a Demo DVD in the back of the book. I felt that was as good of a starting place as any to learn what this was about so I popped the DVD into my laptop and watched the demo. The music got me right away. I love a good beat and I love working out to good strong rhythmic music.... this was exactly what I was watching as they demonstrated the basic moves. I liked it. A lot.
The book is filled with step by step instructions of the dances with lots of pictures to follow along. I loved reading about the tips about healthy choices and taking care of yourself. I enjoyed the lists of healthy foods and the sample menu's. I took a lot of notes and practiced with the Demo DVD. I will refer to this book frequently in the future.
I enjoyed this so much I went on line to find a class near me. I am going to pursue this more and I am actually considering taking the instructor classes they are offering in January in Wisconsin. I seriously am loving this high energy workout!
