Zumba® – Zumba classes feature exotic rhythms set to high-energy Latin and international beats. Before you know it, you will be getting fit and your energy levels will be soaring! There’s no other fitness class like a Zumba Fitness-Party. It’s easy to do, effective and totally exhilarating!

Zumba Gold® – Zumba Gold takes the Zumba formula and modifies the moves and pacing to suit the needs of older active participants, as well as those just starting their journey to a fit and healthy lifestyle. What stays the same are all the elements the Zumba Fitness-Party is known for—zesty Latin music, like salsa, merengue, cumbia and reggaeton; the exhilarating, easy-to-follow moves; and the invigorating, party-like atmosphere. It’s a dance fitness class that feels friendly, and most of all, fun.

Zumba Gold Toning® - This class takes the Zumba Gold class and slows it down slightly to incorporate toning and resistance training activities.
