Zumba Gold is Bold! is designed for all ages - for those new to Zumba, for those who have had an injury, or those who love Zumba, but would like a modified version. Zumba Gold runs for 45 minutes, unlike Zumba that runs for an hour. There is verbal cuing as well as non-verbal cues. The music is the same great, fun, upbeat music. You will sweat and you will receive the many benefits of dancing. The only change is the movements will be less stressful on your joints and your body. It’s a class where you are exercising, but having fun doing it!!
