ZUMBA® GOLD

Zumba® Gold is a series of fitness programs specifically designed to take the exciting Latin and International dance rhythms created from Zumba® Basics and bring them to the active older adult and the beginner participant. Zumba® Gold uses all the fun movements and music as we do in Zumba® Basics. This program is easy to follow and anyone can do it!

We utilize cardio, muscular, balance and flexibility training within the program to focus on cardiovascular fitness, muscular endurance and strength, improving balance and increasing flexibility. Participants in my classes are encouraged to move at their own levels and abilities. Modifications are always offered for standing as well as chair or sitting participants. As a certified AFAA Primary Group Fitness Instructor I am trained to work with a variety of participants of all ages and abilites. I ensure that my classes are always SAFE, EFFECTIVE and, of course, FUN!
