Female announcer: If you want to lose weight and have a great time doing it, then get ready to join the party… Because the following is a paid presentation for Zumba Fitness.
Man: Zumba!
Woman: When you’re overweight, exercise feels like torture.
Man: Exercise videos are boring.
Woman: I was really bored with the monotony of the workout.
Woman: I felt like a failure.
Male announcer: What if there was an alternative?
Woman: Zumba just makes you feel happy.
Woman: You just feel so awesome when you get done.
Woman: You feel motivated and you feel like you’re having a party all at the same time you’re working out.
Woman: That is the amazing magic behind Zumba. It’s like saying, “let’s go out and dance every day.” [cheering, …]
Female announcer: Now, shedding unwanted pounds and inches has never been more exhilarating.
Male announcer: Introducing the all-new exhilarate DVD experience from Zumba Fitness.
Female announcer: Zumba Fitness is the revolutionary workout program that’s so much fun, it never feels like exercise.
Male announcer: Using infectious rhythms and dance styles from all over the world, this one-of-a-kind fitness program can slim you down and firm you up faster and easier than ever before.
I was instantly hooked. I lost 27 pounds in two months.
Having fun, following easy steps, I lost 28 pounds with Zumba Fitness.
Thanks to Zumba Fitness, I now have lost 105 pounds. Ive gone from a size 18 to a size 6. You don’t have to have any dance background, any fitness background, it really is for anybody.
Female announcer: Every Zumba dance move works your upper body, your lower body and everything in-between for a total body workout that’ll shrink your waistline, lift your booty, slim and shape your hips, thighs and legs, plus burn fat and calories for incredible weight loss results without crash dieting or extreme workouts.
Male announcer: And with these incredible, core-shaping dance moves, you can get the flattest, firmest, sexiest abs of your life. You’ll never have to get down on the floor and do crunches ever again.
My stomach, the sides, and the front have definitely whittled down much smaller because most of what we do in Zumba Fitness, it’s all from your core.
My midsection has gotten smaller, it has gotten tighter, Ive got more definition.
Moving this core body or some salsa this way and that way, it tightens everything up.
Female announcer: Best of all, Zumba Fitness routines are so easy to follow, anyone can do it. Any age, any fitness level, Zumba Fitness is for everyone.
There’s no wrong way to do it– as long as you’re moving, you’re doing it. Thanks to the Zumba Fitness program Ive lost 75 pounds. I used to wear a size 40 pants and now I’m a size 32 and I’m in the best shape of my life.
Male announcer: Zumba Fitness is the feel-good fitness approach that has taken the world by storm.
Female announcer: In fact, over 12 million people in more than 125 countries worldwide have already discovered the life-changing benefits of this amazing program.
With Zumba Fitness, and only Zumba Fitness, I lost 96 pounds. Went from a size 18 to a size 4. The last time I was a size 4 was probably a 4t when I was a toddler. [laughs]
Male announcer: Zumba Fitness was born out of south American culture, where exotic beats and rhythms have inspired people to get up and move for centuries.
Female announcer: But it was the Colombian-born dance and fitness instructor Beto Perez who turned these moves into a one-of-a-kind cardio workout that people from all types of cultures find irresistible.
Everybody can do it. People burn calories, people have a good time, people smile, and people lose weight.
Male announcer: Zumba Fitness has been featured in countless magazines, newspapers and television programs throughout the world.
Female announcer: Shape magazine says it’s “one of the hottest and most fun cardio workouts out there!”
Male announcer: And the new york times says it can “feel like a trip to the nightclub.”
Female announcer: That’s because Zumba has translated some of the hottest Latin dance moves into simple steps anyone can follow.
Male announcer: Zumba classes are now available in more than 100,000 locations. And over 10 million DVDs have already been sold.
No one believes that weight loss can be fun, but I’m here to tell you that it can be. Thanks to the Zumba Fitness program, I have lost 135 pounds. I went from a size 24 to a size 8. I am just shocked, it’s amazing.
Female announcer: In the moments ahead, you’ll discover how to bring Zumba Fitness right into your own home with the amazing new exhilarate DVD experience. Plus, hear from countless people just like you who have already benefited from this life-changing approach to weight loss.
Zumba, for me, is all about dancing and moving.
What I love about Zumba is that I can be myself.
You don’t even realize you’re getting a workout while you’re doing it.
I do this because I want to stay young like everybody else here.
Male announcer: Plus an exciting risk-free offer to try the new exhilarate DVD experience, and receive over $80 in bonuses absolutely free.
Female announcer: So get ready to ditch the workout and join the party… With Zumba Fitness!
Man: …In the air left hand in the air everybody in the air. [music changes]
Female announcer: Zumba Fitness is more than a workout that can help you lose weight. It’s a party that makes exercise, well, not feel like exercise at all. That’s because when you dive into the Zumba experience, you feel energized, full of vitality and bursting with strength and confidence. That’s why so many people have chosen Zumba Fitness as the fun and easy way to shed the pounds and inches fast.
With Zumba Fitness, I have lost 60 pounds. I went from a size 16 to a size 4. I feel like a new woman. [laughs]
I’d gained some baby weight from the two children. Thanks to the Zumba Fitness program, Ive lost 30 pounds, Ive gone from a size 12 to a size 4, and I’m in the best shape of my life. My problem areas are no problem anymore thanks to Zumba Fitness.
What I love about Zumba Fitness is that you don’t even realize you’re working out. It’s just fun. But then, practically overnight, you begin noticing changes in your body. Your pants are looser. Your top’s not as tight. Then maybe you even buy a fitted top… Or start wearing shorts or even tight jeans, not just because they’re too small, but because they’re supposed to be tight. A university study found that a Zumba Fitness workout can burn calories at a rate of up to a thousand calories an hour, so you get fast results. In fact, if you don’t drop a full dress or pant size in your first 10 days, they’ll give you your money back. And what’s really cool about a Zumba Fitness routine is that it’s designed to put you into an endorphin-release zone. That means those endorphins– those natural, feel-good chemicals in your brain– they get released, and you actually feel exhilarated. You feel electric. You feel empowered. It’s the most awesome feeling in the world.
Zumba Fitness gives you this amazing energy.
You’re burning calories, you’re smiling from ear to ear.
And all of a sudden, I’m happy, I have energy.
It really is like going to a party.
On these DVDs, we have salsa. Salsa’s more from Cuba. We have fusion of, like, a Bollywood music with a little rock. Cumbia… Cumbia is the rhythm from my country. I’m from colombia. Very beautiful melodies and beautiful rhythm. [music changes] French Reggaeton is like the hip-hop and the latin version.
I think people respond to these beats that are in the Zumba music ’cause they have no choice. Once you pop that DVD in your DVD player, you gotta move.
Man: boogie dance, boogie dance boogie, boogie, boogie dance
Part of the magic of these Zumba toning sticks is that they make you feel part of the music. [rattles shaker, rattles toning sticks] beautiful. I recommend Zumba Fitness because it makes you feel good, the music is fantastic, you look better after doing it, you feel better. It’s something that you don’t want to miss out on.
Tanya: You don’t have to be a dancer to get a dancer’s body. We break every step down so anyone can follow. It’s easy and it’s fun. Zumba Fitness is for everyone.
Ive always been heavy all my life, ever since I was a child. I remember how I felt when I was that big, and I never thought I would be able to have a second chance the way I have had. By following the Zumba Fitness program, Ive lost 102 pounds. Ive gone from a size 24 to a size 5/6. I have not had a surgery. Zumba Fitness has reshaped my body. It has toned and tightened, Ive lost so many inches in my legs and my butt and… [laughs] my abs, and it’s really transformed my entire body. I have to carry my photographs from before when I weighed 262 pounds because people don’t believe me that Ive lost 102 pounds.
Wow, look at the pictures. And now look at her. [crowd cheering]
I know sometimes you struggle with five to 10 pounds. Sometimes people have 30, 40 pounds. But if they know that Ive lost 102 pounds with just doing Zumba Fitness, it gives them hope. I will never be the same because there is not one day that goes by that I do not do Zumba Fitness. [laughs]
Male announcer: Coming up, we’ll travel to Dayton, Ohio, where this town shuts down to join the party with Zumba Fitness. [crowd cheering]

I started off weighing 205 pounds and I was just really bulky before I started Zumba. And now it’s just like I’m lean, and it’s a whole body transformation, really. Now, on my job, what I do is I deliver freight. And right about lunchtime, when it would be pretty cleared out in the middle aisle, it was negative five degrees and it’s like, I went back there at lunch and some of the other couriers, they’re like, “I just don’t understand you, jones.” [laughs] “don’t you just feel like resting?” I’m like, “that gives me energy.” my wife, Joan, she’s the one that discovered it on the infomercial. Before she was just kind of depressed, and then all of a sudden she found Zumba. And it’s like her whole body, her whole mood, her mental attitude just changed. Zumba, I mean, has just changed her life.
I weighed about 155 pounds. After Zumba, about 133 pounds. I noticed body changes immediately. I noticed it in the waistline. Very quickly, it tones as well as burns calories. I couldn’t get enough of it. I loved it.
