What is Zumba?!
Zumba is an aerobic fitness program created by Miami-based dancer and choreographer Beto Perez and
two entrepreneurs, Alberto Perlman and Alberto Aghion. It originated in Colombia in the 1990s and is taught by some 20,000
instructors in 35 countries. Classes use music based on salsa, merengue, cumbia, reggaeton,
calypso, soca, samba, African, cha cha, hip hop and other music. Classes are offered for all ages and abilities.
What is Zumba Gold?
Zumba Gold is an innovative and fun new exercise
program based on Latin dance moves set to exciting music. It is designed for the active older adult, people
who need a modified exercise program and people not used to exercising. Zumba Gold is low to moderate impact
and intensity. Wear comfortable clothing, bring water and a hand towel, and a ‘Ready to Party’
attitude!
