Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I had purchased total transformation and really loved it, but when Zumba Exhilarate came out I was not sold on the "party" theme. It was just by chance that I discovered there was a new program and I decided to buy it for myself as a Christmas present. I have also participated in Zumba classes so I have been exposed to that type of environment as well. With that background, I can say that I really enjoy this new program. Each workout is fast pace, the instruction is just enough to understand the basics as you begin the program. Then as you get to know the routines the non verbal cues are perfect and I felt as if I were in a Zumba class, a challenging one! Each of the workouts is great, its easy to see the routines and steps because there are no tricky camera techniques...and the "Rizer" for Zumba Step is a great addition. I found the workout entertaining and the rizer is stable. However just as a warning there is only one workout video that requires the Rizer and it is not a very tall step either (3 inches), which for the record I liked and since the step workout is fast pace you will soon understand why you shouldn't have a higher step. So far I have used every workout and enjoyed each one, the time duration of these videos varies, so I am motivated by the variety of routines that fit with my daily schedule and now I really look forward to the workouts and don't quite miss the live Zumba class I sometimes take....no offence Nikki.
